@ bolded .. No even think am as there's no bus in operation until at least March. Just fly straight to Scotland

Pretty sure he didn’t mean “bus” to Scotland literally

The manner in which Westbrook has derailed ever since he stepped his foot in that bubble needs to be investigated. Man has scored 163 points this season from 163 shots, averaging 18 points on 37% shooting, after averaging 27 points from 47% shooting last year, which was his most efficient shooting season in the NBA. At 32 years of age is he done? Man needs to see a psychologist.

Bradley Beal meanwhile really deserves better. Man was literally sobbing on the bench, probably realizing that his talents are wasting in Washington. He needs to get his butt out of that city asap.

I saw this stat on Ig and almost spilled my drink.

Baba just dey jack them up dey go

Russel Westbrook, the only man that goes 1000km/hr with nothing to show for it.

Reason for refusal;
Your application has been refused for the following reason(s):
In support of your application, you have provided a Fidelity bank statement in your
name (account number ending 2269). Checks conducted by this office, which are
recorded in a Document Verification Report, have concluded that this document is
not genuine. Although checks with Fidelity bank came back positive, examination of
the document shows errors in the calculations. The summary of the account shows
the total paid out for the period covered is NGN 37,904, however the correct figure is
NGN 37,905. Further checks on the calculation of the closing balance also shows
errors; the total on the statement is NGN 8,170,171.62, however the correct figure,
based on the transactions shown, is NGN 8,170,175.62

The Caseworker in your instance was just being petty.

- “Checks made by the home office have concluded that the document is not genuine”.

- “Checks with fidelity bank came back positive”.


What’s this supposed to mean?

In ukvi’s defence, I’ve seen about 3 fidelity bank statements and they were all blurry.

My advice is for you to reapply and this time, use another bank.

Ifedayosteven:
I'm confused. Is this thread still the NBA begins.

Coming from someone that doesn’t even post here. . . .


Why are folks triggered about NFL discussions ?

Is there something I’m Missing ?

EzzyCarter:


Exactly bruv. There's a special crown for marrying a virgin I think. It's an achievement worth celebrating separately sef . Infact, Kill a cow, Call the whole world and be merry for you have found a virgin, the greatest achievement of all


@bold, you'd kill yourself to get this "borehole" and you still won't be up to par . Don't stress it . And yeah you bet I'm gonna enjoy it till I die

My goodness, you are one funny cat

What makes you think I want to have anything to do with your ”borehole” ?

I know you’re triggered but hey, sh$t happens

Keep swimming brodie

EzzyCarter:



Pele pussycat. Don't worry your virgin in shining armour awaits you

Absolutely!

Virgins are reserved for men of character I.e Kings

Keep enjoying your Borehole.

Akakanfirstclass:
The fact is.....




[s]most virgins are very stubborn and useless outside virginity...

that includes they are useless on bed as well...

they believe because they brought virginity hence they have finish work...

they no longer put effort into other areas of life just because they're virgin...

they centralized their virginity and loose other important traits...

there is more to marriage than virginity...[/s]

but pls that doesn't warrant you to serve any man an oil well in d name of puna

SMH

EzzyCarter:




Hmnnn. I understand your point as well. But in the end, virginity guarantees nothing, be it fertility or fidelity...
To each man his own I guess

GSW vs OKC. Curry's 46 pt game with that game winning 3.

To put it in perspective bro, the game that made KD knew he was done at OKC

28 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists.

Man, I’m sooooo Happy for Boogie.

steady986:
Man this is getting out of hand with the Nets. The Cavs are not even a good offensive team and they've virtually scored 100 points in three quarters. Something needs to be done and fast.

Lol dem never see anything.

I knew this formula of trying to outscore opponents will be dead on arrival.

The importance of Defense/Rim protection can not be overemphasised. . .

Did you see that angry Jam from the fro?

As crazy as it sounds, Kyrie has really been balling out but right now, they can’t stop nobody.

Lol, my brother, I doubt... Outstandingly competent people like President Muhammadu Buhari are extremely rare - ONE IN A BILLION! This is why I weep when some unpatriotic Nigerians downplay this fact just because he's a devoted Muslim and a disciplinarian...

Too bad.. When the great writer, animator, filmmaker and cartoonist, Theodor Seuss Geisel, said: “Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.”, he was merely foreshadowing the regret that will befall Nigerians if we fail to hold President Muhammadu Buhari tight and let him slip out of our hands... By now, we should be thinking of how to persuade him to run for a third term, but NO.. Some of us are hell bent on frustrating him out of power, but na all of us go suffer am.


May God Almighty help us in this country.

Right on schedule with your stoopid take, bast$rd

There is no hope for Nigeria.

A40:
Obviously the Nets need to seriously work on their defense but I will not join the crowd to call for a Kyrie trade just yet. That would be lazy because he actually played well. The problem was with role players like Luwawu Cabarot and Joe Harris going 2/16. No point in them taking that many shots if they are going to shoot it so poorly

The Cavs have been a very decent team this season and don't forget they added two guys from the Nets. Who combined for 29 and 18 boards

There is not enough wiggle room to work with on their starting 5 defensively so they just have to manage what they have. I don't really see any player out there with quality defensive traits and can play major minutes that's available for a trade but they need to add a couple of guys to that bench. It's just too thin

When I talked about how important Jarrett Allen is to the Nets, you tried to downplay it.

Now we can see and as we know, Defense win championships.

Deandre Jordan can only do so much lol, baba is 36

Teams will punish them on the Board when it comes to the playoffs.

A40:
Who saw the Kyrie interview? I kinda feel bad for some of what I've said on this thread. That nigga looked like his wife and kids abandoned him or some shit. Whatever he's dealing with must be pretty serious man.

I hope his teammates rally round him and he's receptive to their support. Whatever he's dealing with I believe playing and being with his teammates would help him deal with it better

I don’t feel bad for any of the comments I’ve made towards him.

Imagine getting paid $30m+ a year just to show up to work whenever you want.

That’s an insult to people with regular jobs.

You have a duty to your teammates and coach.

How hard is it to text them about you needing time off?

The problem is Kyrie thinks he’s way intelligent than he actually is and can do whatever he wants.

I don’t blame him, I blame people like skip bayless that won’t stop gassing him after one good shot in Cleveland. Calling him the “closer”.

Anyways, I like his approach during the interview.

- Accept responsibility

- Not play the victim

Now I wana see him get to work.

snowland:
Dealing with one right now...

I know what you’re thinking, but don’t do it.

Move on from her bro.

steady986:
How do the Celtics lose by 30 to the Knicks?

Maybe the Knicks are Back

steady986:

Maybe we have to distinguish most diverse scorer from best scorer. Because if you say best scorer, LeBron has to be on that list too the numbers are there to prove it.

I agree, I think Lebron has always been an all-rounded player.

Scoring, Defense, Assist.


But KDs efficiency? My goodness, “that boy good”.

aliondo:


I dunno why but I'm kinda having this feeling that the Nets with just Harden and K.D will fare better than when Kyrie is added to the mix.......

During the James harden interview in Brooklyn, he said he’s already got security and now what he wants is a ring and he’s willing to sacrifice.

We don’t know what the hell Kyrie wants lol

That’s the problem.

James harden ran the point pretty well and I don’t know how Kyrie would feel about that.

SmooshCHN:
Watching that game, I don't even know what to say. Kevin Durant is just built different. How the hell do you stop Kevin Durant? Na this KD Anthony Davis wan guard? I am just happy he is back to almost 98%

You don’t stop great players.

You just Hope to contain them.

Especially that slim reaper

etidy:
Is Durant the best scorer in basketball history even above Jordan
This man just came back from an Achilles and is dropping 42 points averaging 30+ on 50/90/40

He might be.

It’s not even the fact that he’s a good scorer, it’s always the efficiency for me.

I respect efficient players and not just guys jacking up shots.

This was why it never worked in OKC having Westbrook as his decision maker.

The only fear now For the Nets should be Kyrie.

afrodoc2:


Cousins plays less defence than a breath of air.

Davis was always better. Offensively they were possibly same level but the gap in defence was and is too wide.

This take is debatable.

Cousins was dropping unreal numbers in Sacramento before his injury.

I’m not so sure AD was better than him back then.

Khanben:



For these issues, IMHO the major problem for players is media and fans narrative, because a great player who never wins a ring he is constantly ribbed and ridiculed especially if he remains in the spot light after retirement.
For the owners, they can easily solve most of their issues by making front office decisions based on competence instead of nepotism. when players keep seeing wrong moves and decisions as the order of the day, they will start worrying about the limited time period they have in building their legacy.
With the current culture most players will not accept wasting their primes on teams that are badly run, it is high time owners recognise that it is no longer the 80's or 90's and get with the program. With the amount of money in the game especially outside the court, players will always be attracted to a team where management has great leadership. at the same time bad management will continue to become more unattractive, the days where owners hire people because they know them and not because of their ability to do the job is simply over and ownership should get with the program.

PS: One aspect of great leadership is to ensure that a superstar is not over indulged even if it leads to a reset, getting it over with is better for the franchise in the long term

@roland17, this is my point brodie.

@khanben, well articulated.

Roland17:


That someone is me, mention me, I no dey bite, na debate we dey debate, you no kill pesin.

You have obviously construed or failed to properly comprehend my first paragraph. Go back to my first paragraph, read it again and compare it to what you have up there.

I will be waiting.. seriously!

You’re arguing from the owners perspective, I’m doing the same from the players point of view.

Isn’t that the argument?

A40:
I feel for IT but for every IT there is a Chandler Parsons. Just saying

The league is littered with bad contracts and no one talks about that

It goes Both ways but someone said we should see it from one angle.

If a team cuts a player, it’s doing what’s best for the franchise but when a player exercises power, people have things to say.

iCode2:
I think someone did priority in VI yesterday. Check at night or very early in the morning.

Well, it might not be an issue switching to Ikeja sha.

Bearing in mind that during the application, once you choose VI, you can’t change to Ikeja TLS again.
