Stephen A is the best at what he does, but without the athletes, there's no narrative at all.

      @@k-way8471 yeah, they have the right to ask for a trade, but there is a difference between asking for one and demanding one though. Like I know they were mostly focusing on KD (who did sign a new multi-year contract just a year ago) asking for a trade, but the best recent example, imo, is James Harden and how he forced his way out of Houston. I get wanting to get out of a place and find a better work environment, however, I also get honoring a contract to do the best I’m being paid to do, even if the situation isn’t what I originally signed up for. To me it just means I need to sign shorter contracts so I can always re-evaluate (like Lebron does). Yeah, it can mean less money and long term security, but if I’m doing my job both of those will always be there in the end.

    The reason why I like this show is because it's a real conversation, no filter. You're not putting on a presentation for the public. Big props. Also, what lenses and cameras you're using because the composition for these shots are on point. If I had to guess, I'd say probably 85mm on a 2.8/3.0f. Shots looking so clean.

But slowly learning I knew nothing and trying to make a life for me and my own little family. I still feel lost or as if I'll never make it. Or be allowed to make it. I feel like how I look and who I am. Gives them even more reason's to keep me down or push me down. As if they have a right. Or as if I can't get a chance to live a good life. If I'm working or trying hard to have it. I pray one day someone will see this. Brandon Marshall kobe Bryant. Ppl I looked up to have some of the same issues as I did. Closest thing I had to a role model was kobe and watching you now Brandon instead of football. I pray 🙏 1 day I can get some help from ppl who may understand me. B.c the world don't.
