I think any white owner slapping one of his players in the back of the head in public would cause major headlines.

Even if they're the best of friends off the court. Just because of the times we're living in.

Wow Shaq's son had heart surgery.

Read on Twitter


That sucks. Will his career be in doubt because of this? Was looking forward to seeing Shaq's son play in the league.

I think you right but IMO it would be because of the historical context.

I mean not that I would be mad if it happen to Dolan.

Would be one way for him to sell the team.

Chicago should get the credit. They have considerable talent but look like absolute ****.

I forgot they have Jabari Parker, maybe injuries is a big reason for the record? I'd have to see them play together healthy.

Parker, Lavine, Lauri, Dunn, Carter Jr, Portis vs KP, Knox, Mitch, Trier, Frank, THJ, (Vonleh). Their core looks good on paper but I like our potential. This year's pick may be the deciding factor.

Yeah, he's not a core piece. I didn't know the dude fell so far off...maybe Uncle Fiz's Bust Rehab can fix him.

I don't think they're tanking anymore.

They're just a really sad, sad team.
