No, man, you misspelled it, it’s actually spelled K-E-O-G- . . . oh, wait, I see what you did there . . .

I am also enjoying the back-and-forth, thank you for that. I would ask you to consider whether you are putting to much weight on the upbringing rather than the end result. I don’t see us disagreeing on the fact that these players don’t have any real life skills. So does how they reach the NBA matter? A regular hot dog…

So you made an entire post here just to state that you know nothing. Good work

Good analysis, thanks. But at core I still see too many similarities. Basically, the only thing they know is basketball and not much else. You’re a journalist - you want to make an Academy Award winning documentary? Go make a film about AAU basketball. One day we are all going to wake up to the reality of basketball…

The girls in this that report the abuse happening while the cameras were rolling are dubious. Did you cash the check? Yes? Then it couldn’t have affected you so much.

That kid has seen some shit . . .

Depth perception much?

This isn’t surprising at all. Okafor is the latest young man that we have bred to play basketball and only play basketball. No life skills, no social skills, the only thing we care about is how he handles the rock, period. Okafor is the next Lamar Odom, you read it here first.

I don’t exactly see him saying, “no”. So, let’s face it, the kid has issues and fell off the wagon. I hope he finds his way eventually.
