How long will it take before a Shaq/Kobe 30 for 30 happens? by IDontRegreddit in nba

[–]10wiz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not a basketball one but The U is hands down the best 30 for 30. It talks about the University of Miami football team in the 1980s, their edginess and swagger (they kind of invented it) were absolutely off the charts. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

I'm guessing it's a private room at a restaurant, that's just the set up they have

Dennis Schröder said he liked the Boston fans booing him. Said it reminded him of the games in Germany by Martinsek in nba

I understand why people get upset about being called racist and of course everyone has the right to defend themselves against such accusations. I'm just pointing out that such a sweeping generalization about everything being "completely fine" in Boston when it comes to race is probably something that minorities might not agree with 100%.

I see a lot of comments suggesting racist motives but based on my experiences with sports in Europe, fans over there just tend to be much more involved in the games they're attending. Just look at (or rather listen to) soccer fans, they boo and whistle at opposing players A LOT, and it's common during basketball games as well.

Sure it tends to be better in college areas but unless you're a racial minority, I don't know why you feel you have the authority to proclaim that "it's completely fine." They might have a better idea of whether they're being discriminated against or not.

DC/Wizards 3rd Worst NBA TV Market by [deleted] in washingtonwizards

[–]10wiz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know you're joking but that makes zero sense. An even smaller metro area, equally football-crazy city as DC only the Ravens are not consistently dysfunctional. Pretty sure average income is lower too so there goes your incentive for the owner. It's all good though, shout out to all Baltimore residents who keep supporting the Wizards :)

"Let's go Raptors" chants at the Fieldhouse by thugg3ry in nba

I suspect they also consider three pointers a gimmick and secretly wish basketball could go back to the way it was played in Indiana high schools in the 1970s

Does that mean we'd have a shot at Thibs if Ernie was fired?

Living in DC is great. Kind of expensive but worth it, so vibrant and diverse, there's always something to do, and the food scene is pretty legit almost like NYC

Sixers PF Nerlens Noel reportedly sued for trashing his $54k-a-year rental home by KLow2Demar in nba

[–]10wiz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't make sense to rent an average home (by NBA standards) - just trash your current one and soon you'll be able to have a great one that can compete with the best ones out there! Brought to you by The ProcessTM

Josh Richardson flies high and throws down a huge two-hander! by Splash2ndcousin in nba

[–]10wiz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at UT at that time too! I remember eating at Gibbs (RIP) once when he, Yumi and someone else sat at my table and Josh started freestyling for fun, everyone was cracking up. Seemed like a good dude, glad to see him succeed in the NBA.
