    That’s got to be soul crushing to see how your colleagues can take people’s lives for so much less offensive behavior yet you’re subjected to this type of verbal assault and not one person in your uniform so much as utters an objection! Astonishing!

    Please stop telling these marginally talented big kids that they are wings! Teach them to defend and take advantage of their size. We don't need more 6'9"+ 20% three point shooters who can't defend in the post nor on the perimeter. It's ok to be and play big.

    Shoe circuit or not you have to be able to play. College coaches aren't going to scholarship you just because you play on a sponsored team. Hundreds of Gauntlet, EYBL and Association players go D2 or lower if they are lucky. Go play hard, get coached and get better! That matters!

    That's not just art. It's how the entire world works. People want to be a part of something and they really don't care what it is as long as they are surrounded by others.

    If you know of a little black boy with a 3.5 GPA and at least a 28 ACT who might want to be a doctor one day please let me know. Undergrad and medical school with no loans. Time sensitive. No jump shot or handle necessary!

    As a rising junior/senior some of you cats are running around with a 1.8 and no test score screaming "exposure" "live period" "division one" and "slept on"! This would be a great time to use words like tutor, credit recovery, summer school, enrichment and clearinghouse!

    FYI - The 13th guy on EVERY D1 roster is on scholarship too! He was blessed to receive multiple offers, official visited and signed!! That guy will NEVER play! Some of you counting offers are that guy! Focus on what matters long term not just for social media! .....Or don't!!

    As a black man in 2019, I am very proud that in a forum like that, 2 of my people are able to exchange differing opinions respectfully. Mo'Nique is really hurt and this situation could have easily gone left. We don't have to agree but we never have to be disagreeable.

    Sad times when discipline and standards are confused with control like it’s a bad thing. Our society is deteriorating because we’re raising these babies to believe that they can do whatever they want whenever they want simply because they feel like it. Life will show otherwise.

    Young point guards if you want freedom you must earn your coaches trust. Period. Consistently making the WE play not the ME play will build that trust better than anything that you think you're capable of doing.

    Like I said before young boys... This weed thing is a TRAP keep thinking its legal and cool to smoke because it's "legal in the NBA" or in certain places and you will continue to lose opportunities that you have worked your butt off to earn. It's not worth it! Wake up!

    Boxing out is EVERYONE’s responsibility. If all players had met their assignment the player who rebounded the ball would not have been able to. Same principle as playing defense. Team defense is better but individual defense is essential.
