Good news, he's one guy I'd have assumed would show up out of condition if the season started soon.

I'd like to hear Khloe's thoughts on this.

Because of the Armenian origin of her family?
(The Armenian Genocide and the continuing Turkish attempts at its denial).

Exactly. I know she understands money is money, but I want to know if her opinion of the deal goes any further than that.

Dont want to get political but is it a remote possibility that they Khloe and her folks aren't apart of the historical Armenian population that was affected by the tragedy in Turkey all those years ago.

For instance my ancestors are from Africa but I don't have any connection to the atrocities in Sudan. But I do have link to the Alabama Civil Rights Movement of the 1950's and 60's. Does that make sense?

Doc, his main problem is his basketball rhythm....he NEVER does any basketball related stuff in the off season. No playing, no working on moves or nothing. The last time he did some ball stuff in the off season it was the 2010 World Championships for USA. Which led to him winning 6th man of the year last year.

Lets hope this year was different and he actually worked out rather than eating candy all day.
