Sometimes basketball surprises me because De’Aaron Fox shot 29% from 3PT on 4 FGA in 2021 but in 2023 he’s at 40% on 9 FGA

I try not to judge how other people live. It's your life do you. But I have limits. Fck him for wasting his opportunity.

Chipotle is a poor college kids hurdle. It isn't something a grown azz man making insane money should be eating everyday.


Yeah I think Mikal is a good dude, and the kind of player that anyone would want on their squad...but my god man. Chipolte everyday would have me vomiting stomach acid every morning. It's disgusting to eat that every single day. He has a serious problem.

Dude eats like he's still living in Arizona...like no beloved, there are actual cuisines here from several different cultures and it all slaps hard. There is no reason why a professional athlete making his kind of money is eating chain restaurant food every day living in Brooklyn.

He's not living right. Put the Chipotle down. Go get some warm curry chicken spread over rice and peas, and a side of macaroni pie. Imagine walking past the smell of a halal spot and thinking, "nah let me go get some chipolte". The fact that he's from Philly and is doing this is shameful

I hear Victor is giving the Spurs the same kind of problems. He'll only fine at the finest nouvelle cuisine establishments. Hard to find in San Antonio, but whilst Pop panders to him the strength coaches are in dispair.



Well, that is not the same kind of problem at all now is it?
Chipotle is far from the finest "nouvelle cuisine" establishment.
If money wants to eat the finest food, he should get that ish shipped in from the civilized world.
He IS that franchise now.
If you dropped me in San Antonio, I'd have problems too.

To be fair RJ shot 40% when arenas were either empty or limiting fans to <3000 - same season Randle was 40%. RJ normally in the 31-32% range. Fox has legitimately more than doubled his attempts and his percentage increased from give him 3-4 feet to sniper.

Knox II 17pts

I think Knox had a turning point since last season with Blazers, he found swag is momentum, you play weak your swag gets smaller, but you play hard and strong your swag gets bigger by each day (something I admit Cam needs to catch on, both had same problem, it seems Knox found his cure). He may just be a starter for good, he def got talent.

Asking you if Tobias Harris would be a good fit is like asking Bill Bradley if he likes Asian girls

He is very, very talented. More talented than Obi for example.
