Bucks got lucky with Harden getting hurt and then Kyrie getting hurt and now Trae. Suns were down 2-1 when AD got hurt. Nuggets with no Murray and Clippers with no Kawhi

Phil Jackson quotes. ——————————-

In his book Maverick:

"White players are more often willing to run patterns and to work collectively."

"Because of the predominance of blacks in pro basketball, the sport is rapidly disintegrating into a one-on-one sport. There are only five or six NBA teams who play with more than a superficial degree of team unity."

On the Knicks: "The starting front court played white basketball while guards played black basketball."

"Black kids growing up want to be the superstar of their neighborhood. They want to be the toughest kids on the block, the richest or, once they get to the playground, the best one-on-one basketball players. White kids, on the other hand, usually are raised in a more homogeneous environment which provides other outlets for personal expression. They're also constantly being taught the principle of subordinating their own personal glory for the good of the group."

Now to be fair to Phil, he wrote Maverick in 1976, a time when racial politics and views were very different from now. So surely, as the years passed and he grew as a human being, his views changed right?

October 1999: "I don't mean to say that as a snide remark toward a certain population in our society, but they have a limitation of their attention span, a lot of it probably due to too much rap music going in their ears and coming out their being."

October 2005 when asked about the dress code: "I think it's important that the players take their end of it, get out of the prison garb and the thuggery aspect of basketball that has come along with hip-hop music in the last seven or eight years."

Cheese is for ugly women

Is “skyline” just cause of the amount of cheese they place on it?
