It never ceases to amuse me that the generation that basically had middle class or better income guaranteed coming out of college and wants low taxes, strong defense and fully-funded Medicare/Social Security thinks Millennials are pampered and entitled.

I assume some of it is the hazing mentality. “I sat there and took it when my piece of shit coach treated me like dirt in the 80s, so these ungrateful little bastards should too!”

Yeah, Karl is hardly blameless here, but it takes a special mix of vitriol to render a team as spectacularly dysfunctional as the Kings were. There was a story Zach Lowe told on his podcast about how Vlade Divac didn’t know you had to clear trades with the league office, which is basically the first thing you need to…

A 25-year-old employee screaming at his 60+ year old supervisor, blatantly disrespecting him, and actively undermining his authority is totally fine in any other workplace, right?

From your lips to the basketball gods’ ears, my friend.

As a Warriors fan, my fear is this leads to the Lakers (1) signing Durant; (2) signing Harrison Barnes; (3) offering D’Angelo Russell and their first round (no worse than 3d or 4th, right?) to OKC for Westbrook (LA native) and point out that OKC can take the deal, or LAL can just wait a year, and sign him as a free…

So keep quiet and enable a discriminatory system or be honest and have the system endure the necessary pain it requires to be properly reformed.

You’re fucking delusional. And did you really just reference a FICTIONAL show to somehow support your argument?? I seriously hope you don’t reproduce, and if you do please don’t teach your children anything about lying and maturity. I mean, seriously!?!? Delusional.

No that wouldn’t have been the right thing to do. The right thing is exactly what he did, tell the truth. That doesn’t make it the BEST thing to do for everyone involved, but right is fairly cut and dry in that situation. What you are advocating is no different than police officers protecting each other by omitting…

I have two hands

LOOK AT ALL THAT GROUND SHE MADE UP.

My friend was looking at studio apartments two weeks ago and the cheapest is 900-1000. I know that one bedrooms where I am go for 1200 minimum and we are not in a fancy place. We have a 2/2 are now hitting 1455 due to a new increase and we have rent control. And we are lucky to have that. If we weren’t already here it…

I bring home 3 right now, and I live in one of the nicest parts of LA and drive a BMW. You people are God awful with money.

How the fuck can you struggle with $6,000 a month? Rent here is $2,000 a month if you want to live really nice. Your car should be $400-500 a month, even if you want a certified BMW or Benz. That’s $2,500 a month on car and rent, leaving you with $3,500 a month for taxes and all other expenses.

It’s very difficult to feel like you’re doing well in LA though, because you’re surrounded by extremely flashy wealth, probably more so than anywhere else in the country.

Basically this.

Good thing he taped it, his coworkers at the dollar store wouldn’t have believed him.

Nah, biggest problem is that we split our top athletes among football, basketball, baseball, soccer, hockey. The rest of the world’s top athletes go to soccer first.

The one year I would’ve given him best player in the league status is 05-06. He was absolutely incredible that year and dragged a terrible team to the playoffs. He led the league in usage by a mile, and the team absolutely needed him to. That’s the year he should’ve won MVP.

Of course, he capped that season off with…

Isn’t VORP a bit skewed, as it benefits those teams where a single player is by far the star of the team (Garnett in MIN, Lebron in CLE [maybe not as much in MIA], Grant Hill in DET [I mean, BISON DELE was 2nd in team scoring, for chrissake]).... just looking at Curry’s VORP this year compared with 2007-2010 Lebron…
