I like how you snuck Wilson's name in there. You think say we no go notice?
Where would you rank him?
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 3:00am On Feb 01, 2022
Dont look now but Tatum is turning into that next level player. His patience and court vision is on point!
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 3:52am On Feb 01, 2022
My Celtics look like they are finally getting it together on the offensive end. Tonight is the first game in about 3 seasons where we have played well against the zone employed by E. Spoelstra and the Heat. We struggled a little bit in the 2nd to find that open offensive player inside the paint but they kept moving the ball and making buckets (I know the Heat were without core pieces). We have now gone 4-1 over the last 5 games and have looked good finishing these games.

He's in that second tier behind the elite. Won't be there for long though if he doesn't get his act together.

His shooting is still very much inconsistent (I say this as someone who owns him on fantasy ball angry) He could go 12-18 today and the next day go 5-19.

I am disappointed that the media took Brady’s power to announce his retirement by himself. He has earned it and whoever broke the story should have intimated him and given him the opportunity to break the story by himself.

Since the story broke, he tried his best to wrestle the power back from the media by saying a decision had not been made, even his dad said the thing but it was too late and I know that has to hurt Brady.

Cant hurt as much as those hits tho tongue Brady na big boy, this is part of celeb life, so I doubt he dwells much on this. A leak from the front office would be my suspicion

grin grin Ngbo @A40, ma fi ejo pa mi because no be me talk am.

The one season he gets beat up like a thief and without important pieces, baba seke!

Nothing against the man, he has done a lot for the position and sports in general. I hope he enjoys his retirement. I curious to see what Gronkowski does knowing Brady is not returning.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 10:38pm On Feb 01, 2022
While this may lead to him being blacklisted, I am so proud of Brian Flores. He is pretty much sacrificing his future for this cause.

We all know if Tom Brady was single he would still be playing. He did this to appease his madam.

Gronk probably retires too

Agree, the issue for Brady is his age. His family does not need the money, so with his wife and daughter especially, complaining to him about how they feel when he gets hit, he had no choice but to retire.
As soon as I saw the clip where madam was rejoicing in the vip booth while oga was losing 27-3 to the Rams, I knew he was calling it quits.

PS: Personally I don't blame her, nobody wants to have a spouse who is having cognitive issues in their old age due to concussions that occurred because a 45 year old man was hit by a 270lbs 24 year old who runs a 4.4s 40.

Gronk can only play for a team where the QB, is willing to do what Brady does for him on every play.

She was rejoicing while they were down? That's a bit weird. But for me it's only right he retired with his full faculties intact. Playing an extra season, winning an 8th ring, what difference does it make? His achievements are never going to be matched in our lifetime. He's already proven he was the more important ingredient by winning a Superbowl his first season without Belichick. Nothing left to prove

There's not enough words to describe how disgraceful these NFL teams are operating. How do you ask a man to come and interview for a job you have already given away.

How are Superbowl winning coordinators like Eric Bienemy and Byron Leftwich still interviewing for jobs left right and center yet you have average Joe's like Joe Judge, Matt Rhule, Kliff Kingsbury getting jobs one time.

Josh McDaniels a literal cheat that was caught and flopped at Denver, flaked on the Colts gets hired by another team again, it's crazy

Indeed, I fear he WILL suffer cognitive issues. He has taken some lickings over the years. More than any QB. I remember what the legion of boom did to him. Its only a matter of time IMO

Even this, we dont know. Only his doctor. We have seen otherwise healthy and younger players pick up a gun and off themselves, 2 years removed from playing in the NFL. There is no telling what wifey is already dealing with. I think Drew Brees retiring also helped Brady make peace with retiring. Drew Brees has taken a lot of beating as well, they are in the same boat.

Assiin, it was as if she was at his retirement party.

At one point, the wife was complaining about the number of concussions he's had.

Dejounte Murray (19.6/8.5/9.1)

I would have said AD but he didn't play enough games.

The Clippers acquire Norman Powell and Robert Covington. Good trades that work right now. I guess the Clippers are trying to make it to the playoffs even without Kawhi and PG. Coupled with their above average defense, they believe they'll have enough firepower offensively...Powell, Morris, Reggie, Luke. And PG might return quickly enough for the playoffs. Probably Kawhi too.

I noticed last year, and I assumed you guys were starting to forget and heal proper. I always feel sad when I think of the trauma of the parents: After hustling to enter yankee, only to have your child cut down by low lifes. God have mercy on us all.
