I love how you told my story. I remember feeling a bit far from the real world that day we called, deep in my music cave again. But you were able to capture the essence of my journey and give the words that I didn’t have at that moment. In a time like this it’s refreshing to read an article that is so human again <3

It’s been 24 years and the first time we’re hearing about this is the day before he watches us raise our first championship banner in 53 years.
It was LeBron James dream to get drafted by the Knicks, per @WindhorstESPN
“There was this dream, and in fact, it was kind of LeBron‘s dream too. Literally the night before he agreed to his Nike contract, in his Nike contract he got a 20 or 30% bonus if he got drafted to the Knicks. They agreed to that the night before the Lottery. That’s why it was so important to get it done before the lottery. And when the envelope opened and showed the Knicks at number nine, there was an audible in the room because people wanted LeBron to go to the Knicks.”

sorry for your loss man 🙏🏾
My dad passed on Saturday. I dragged myself to the wizards event even when it was hard to function. @AJ_Dybantsa was only signing one name the lady said. I told him about my father passing and the Paul in my name was his legacy. He signed the full thing. Thank you!

Yall be 30+ & your whole personality is still drama, shade, jealousy & gossip. Still obsessed with people who moved on years ago, still recycling old shit, still carrying the same nasty energy. No healing. No growth. No accountability. Just old and bitter.

Hard agree. You’re also exposing yourself to a lot of trash you’d prob never encounter otherwise. Meeting people organically and building connections with ppl you encounter in your day to day often leads to finding ppl ur naturally more aligned with and have more in common with.
Someone told me he thinks dating apps are bad because they let you access connection without having any motion in your life. Normally meeting people requires going out into the world, entering new scenes and navigating unfamiliar situations. You have to be living a life that brings you into contact with other people. Dating apps let you order connection without doing any of that work

In terms of synergy, the Knicks have the best overall starter synergy in the NBA.

Brendan Haywood says the NBA has lost its offensive identity, arguing that every team now runs the same pace and space, pick and roll system instead of having its own style of play.
Haywood points to the early 2000s, when the Lakers ran the Triangle Offense, the Kings relied on high post action, and Jason Kidd’s Nets used the Princeton Offense. He believes that variety made teams more distinct and harder to prepare for. He also criticizes modern big men for posting up from the three point line instead of taking advantage of smaller defenders near the basket, arguing that the NBA needs to bring back more diverse offensive systems.

On this day in 1999, MF DOOM released his debut studio album 'Operation: Doomsday.' He recorded the classic project over a three week period, in between naps.
@MFDOOM sampled everything from cartoon soundtracks to '80s soul and rap tracks. In a 1999 interview with Life Sucks Die Magazine, he shared his artistic approach: "A lot of these rappers out here, they got the public looking at them like they're the character they're talking about in the song. See, when I do music each song is like a scene, like part of a screenplay."

Katt Williams isn't waiting for Hollywood to change. He's building an alternative.
The comedian is developing Kemet Movie Works in Anniston, Alabama, with plans to create more opportunities for Black filmmakers, musicians, and storytellers. Inspired in part by Tyler Perry's studio model, the venture aims to expand creative freedom while opening doors for the next generation through a partnership with HBCU Miles College.
From calling out the industry to investing in a different future for it, Williams is making a case for what ownership can look like.
