I still am that way to some degree but it's alot tamer now than when I was Klay's age.


Sounds like you suffer from a traditional "Pints" issue we have here in Australia. Biggest difference is in Australia your boss usually suffers from the same, so all is understood.


Except I never drank! :lol: No drugs either. I am a total square. Except for my love of music.


What music might that be, church music? :D

It's really seems he has that gen z attitude of just taking everything without actually earning anything.


Moody younger and he seems to be fine :dontknow:

Just a mentality thing, not generational. It paints the picture that his mentality is "how does this help Jordan Poole?" And in college, thats a bit of a red flag but at least its understandable, save the 'being a good teammate' stuff for when it matters, the NBA. And even to a degree in a rookie contract, as a late 1st round pick, I understand wanting to showcase yourself to get the next contract.

But he's in the NBA, he has a ring, he has a large contract, its time to be part of the machine or get outta town

Moody doesn’t have a gen z attitude. By all accounts he acts like a pro.

Jp literally has it all now. Like he doesn’t need to play for a contract, he just needs to play to win. I guess he wants to prove that he’s an all star? Or that he’s better than Klay and should start over him.


Yup, and based on history, there's no reason to expect it to change. But he's a kid, so maybe he grows up this offseason? Or if he wants to imitate Klay's mentality (which it seems like he does), he has to imitate Klay's impact and get much better on-ball (defense) and off-ball (offense)

Not holding my breath though. BBIQ is usually a gradual incline, not a sharp jump

Yea I wouldn't bet on JP changing his game or attitude.

Getting paid like star will likely make him even worse.

You must have terrible investing skills if you go based on past performance! Lol

Also I can tell who hasn't read (or understood) Sleepy51's post on this issue. But keep carrying on with your head in the sand!

Welp, this sounds like chinese to me, as it might to you if i say that i listen everything from Celelate Cuvinte to Wolves in the Throne Room. :D :D :D


But i always appreciate a fellow music lover.
