At 44. It's mental. He is actually throwing the ball harder than I ever saw him do in New England which at 44 is frankly absurd
I hope he writes a book or documentary on his mindset. I was looking forward to reading Kobe's own some day. The kind of discipline that trumps talent is very very rare.

And what could be the game plan? To wait until the 3rd quarter before they begin to play well?

ESPN put up this question on Twitter yesterday and I'm shocked a couple of people chose something other than windy day. As long as the ball bounces then we good. No net shouldn't even be much of an issue. Double rims? Just shoot better. But you see that wind? It basically f*cks everything up—your dribble, your passes, and most annoyingly, your shots (and that includes layups).

O think it's a unique mix of his upbringing and the fact that he was drafted so low. And then the willingness to be coached. And be the ultimate teammate. There's something to be said about his leadership skills especially in a sport that contains so many moving parts. If he's your teammate you subconsciously don't want to let him down. See how AB dey comport

Hehehe. Brady has beaten the great and sorry versions of the Falcons. The Lions on the other hand have always been sorry undecided

ESPN and their analysts's xenophobia on full blast. If Giannis was American he would be #1. We all know this.

Shaq himself said Giannis is him reincarnated. Shaq played this exact same way and we never heard any nonsense about skills. And between 00-02 he was the unquestioned best player in the league

Tap dancing class is in session! @A40 I hope you are enrolled! They got Brady tap dancing like a ballerina..
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 4:33am On Sep 27, 2021
@A40
Come pay homage ohhhhh! The GOAT had 37 seconds left with 0 timeouts to get the Packers to a FG range against a formidable 49ers team which he did and Crosby came through with a great kick.

As for Brady, well he met a team that was closest to a match and failed to be the difference… He did tap dance though!!

Show some respect!!!

Let's hear word with your regular season merchant Aaron Fraudgers. We know how the movie ends. Ball in the regular season and choke in the playoffs when he meets the same team.

Don't worry about GOAT Brady. Your Aaron Fraudgers can testify what happened when they met when it mattered most

I'll just come out and say What I have been withholding since Midway last season, Justin Herbert is the Next Big NFl QB Superstar. This dude had an unreal year this season just gone by(the best by any rookie ever) but I thought let me bite my tongue a little bit into this season but I cannot deny it anymore. HERBIE is here to stay folks. With Him, Josh Allen,Pat ,Kyler,Lamar and hopefully the new dudes drafted in this year's draft, the League is in good Hands as far as QB's are concerned. Heck Donald and Tannenhill are starting to look competent after leaving the calamity that is Adam Gase behind.


Lest I forget, this has been the best start to the College Football season In a long time(also the NFL). The powerhouses have lost quite a number of their star players to the NFL draft over the past two years and are firmly in rebuilding mould with Freshmen and Juniors whilst the mid tier ones have brought back most of their senior class men who bring with them a wealth of experience. This has created some sort of parity I believe and I am enjoying it whilst it lasts.

Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 3:30am On Oct 02, 2021
Seems the endgame of this Simmons vs Sixers war is upon us. I have to say that this 'player empowerment' talk has produced the softest set of divas and primadonnas the game has ever seen. Its not enough that you're a one trick one pony unwilling to improve, you also lack the spine to face the team that looked past these limitations and still made you financially straight for life and behave professionally on the way out. I can't but wonder how any GM serious about winning gives up anything substantial for him. Whatever abilities he has his lack of heart and grit will nullify

Come join us, the fantasy league dey easy to play. You go pick players to make your team on draft day, then when the league don start, you go dey get different opponent (from we wey dey play too). You go just dey set your team, pick players to start from your team every day or every week. Na like say na you be coach (but I know say highest na present Doc Rivers you go be). So top 8 or there about go qualify for playoffs, make I no explain more cos na there I go knock you comot grin grin. You can google about it tho, and when you join, you fit do mock draft so you'll get used to the way it's done.
