weird how 2024 finals mvp jaylen brown is on this list but julius randle is not, whats that about
I can post with zero emotion that the Celtics sleptwalk through the Eastern Playoffs, losing games when they shouldn't to teams suffering from injuries to their key players.
Sure they beat Dallas, who had 2 players who could actually score the basketball. Congrats to them I guess.
jaylen brown trying to be NBA-kanye, thats kinda his brand at this point
Brown's certainly a more stable personality than Kanye, but it seems likely that Nike vetoed giving Brown a world stage platform when they're not going to be sure what he's going to say from that perch. It's kind of the cost of doing business that Brown pays for his activism. I'd hope he's comfortable with that.
Fwiw I like Brown. He’s super smart and loves playing chess.
Just don’t do passive aggressive cryptic social media posts.
It does nothing good.
The Celtics lost 2 games in the EC playoffs lol. Are teams now expected to sweep every series?

I think it is probably more likely he wouldn't play much on this team and it is easier to just throw a high end roleplayer like White in there instead. This is the most loaded team USA in awhile on paper, they already have enough egos to manage.
I think it’s cool that he isnt one of the guys who settles with one woman as a millionaire in his twenties

I can't. This is one of the worst NBA seasons/playoffs of my lifetime. Only the years where KD+GSW won it all are worse. This really is all Denver's fault. How do you choke a 20 pt lead in game 7 at home. WTF. I was perfectly content with Denver repeating.
i don't have a wife, but if i did i wouldn't let her sleep with jaylen brown
I've always told every girl I've been with they can sleep with any guy they want. I've never understood why I should care. Compersion for the win. That said if I don't like the guy then I tell them not that one. Like I wouldn't let them sleep with any Lakers or Celtics fan. They don't deserve that pleasure.
What about Urban Meyer? I hear he’s a ladies man who likes to have fun.
Why should he care?
Swing away Merrill
Wemby vs Jokic right now and Jokic is feasting
Unfortunately the girl I'm with right now is the "loyal type". She won't cheat no matter how much freedom she has. Super boring I know. I don't 100% buy that tho. I mean I think if a guy is hot enough and charismatic enough even a loyal girl won't be able to resist but that's a rare scenario. That said, out of the girlfriends I've had since 98 only a depressingly small portion (5) have ever utilized this freedom. Culture has done a good job of controlling women. They imprison themselves and most of the time I can't break them out of that prison.
