How Steph Curry's arrogance flew under the radar this summer! "C'mon bruh!"

"How arrogant is this bruh?"

Friedrich Nietzsche, the German philosopher, once said, "The demand to be loved is the greatest of all arrogant presumptions." Taleb Kweli, the rapper, gave it to us like this, "You have to know when to be arrogant. You have to when to be humble. You have to know when to be hard and you have to know when to be soft." Then John Ensign, the former Nevada Congressman, put it where the goats could get it when he spit, "Often times, the more power and prestige a person achieves, the more arrogant a person can become."

Well playas...with all of the foolishness goin' on this summer with the police shootings, shootings of police,  protests of and for the #BlackLivesMatter Movement, ISIS terror attacks and the ignorance that is the president campaigns. The arrogance of Steph Curry flew right under the radar on a boy. The more power and prestige this dun has gotten the more arrogant he's become and NOBODY'S said a mumblin' word about it!!!! This cat held a basketball camp in Hawaii at the BYU campus for 4 days and 3 nights! Havin' a basketball camp wasn't the issue of arrogance playboy. It was havin' the joint in Hawaii of all places and then chargin' boyz $2,250 to attend! And get this, there was no discount for siblings. So if you had two kids that wanted to go you better pony up $4,500. Wheredeydodatat? 

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! Off the rip bruh, who can afford to go to Hawaii? Then once a boy gets to Hawaii who's got another 2 stacks for basketball camp? Only the rich kids! Do you know how much it costs to go to HAWAII? I'm a grown man with a very good job and I've yet to plant my feet in Hawaii. I wish my kid would roll up on me and ask me to go to basketball camp in Hawaii even if it was free once he got there. 

Now unlike Steph, everybody's daddy didn't play in the NBA. So he's out of touch right off of the top and the duns around him are too. The kids that really want to see and learn from him can't afford to go on vacation let alone go to freakin' Hawaii.  

When you grow up in the hood goin' on vacation is goin' to Big Momma's house down south. You stayed all summer and then came back when school was about to start. That was vacation playboy. Hawaii???!!! 

Don't pull a Michael Jordan on us already bruh! Don't be that dude. Mike is always chargin' boyz an arm and a leg for camps too but he's freakin' JORDAN. Hangin' out with him is like a young singer goin' to the studio with Michael Jordan or Prince.

 Yeah, you're the man and you've won two straight MVP's but don't think you're gonna keep gettin' love from the G's in the barber shop and the single momma's in the hood pullin' stunts like havin' basketball camps in Hawaii. 

C'mon bruh! The rich kid in the suburb who's parents can afford to take them to Hawaii aren't typically the duns trippin' about playin' ball from a survival stand point. They're playin' for the sake of playin'. 

You've gotta understand this. MOST kids growin' up in the suburbs aren't as hungry as those growin' up in the ghetto. Playin' ball is the kid in the hood's way out. So it's a lot more important to him or her than the rich kid. The cat in the suburbs with the flat screen on the wall sleepin' in a full or queen size bed is playin' for the sake of playin'. I'm not tellin' you what I heard playboy I'm tellin' you what I know. My kids aren't as hungry as the kids I grew up with. So the duns at hoop camp in Hawaii aren't trippin' on the game of basketball because they're ALREADY comfortable. 

Now I get that Steph wants to get his bread but didn't Under Amour just unload the freakin' truck on him? Isn't he about to get stupid bread from Golden State next summer? How much bread does a boy need playa? 

But Steph, if you just have to have a freakin' camp in Hawaii make sure that you're havin' one in the ghetto too. Don't get so big that you skip over the duns that look like you. Most kids that look like you won't ever get to Hawaii and they sure as heck won't have an additional $2,250 hangin' out of their pockets for a stupid camp. 

Believe me bruh, once a boy can get to Hawaii on his own he doesn't need to learn anything from you because his daddy's got the skills to take care of him and point him in the right direction. So hoopin' really isn't that important. Trust me! At this point it's just something to do.

Do what you gotta do bruh! Just don't forget about the little homies that look like you. Stop me when I start lyin'!

The caption under the photo isn't real but its REAL talk! 

Why Golden State WILL be known as the best NBA TEAM EVER! "Shut it Down"

"What!!!?

Ludwig Borne once said, "Getting rid of a delusion makes us wiser than getting hold of a truth." Conan O'Brien gave it to us like this, "When all else fails there's always delusion." Carl Sagan ran over Big Momma's flower bed with his Huffy bike when he spit, "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." 

Well playas...we can finally lay all of the foolishness and delusion to rest that the Golden State Warriors won't break the '96 Bulls' 72-10 regular season record! On Wednesday night not only did they break the joint, they drug Memphis up and down the floor in the process and Steph Curry set the all-time NBA season record of knockin' down 402 3-pointers! 

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! I'm so glad that they broke the Bulls' record I don't know what to do! Why? Because I was sick of hearin' boyz sayin' how they would never be able to do it. RECORDS ARE MEANT TO BE BROKEN BRUH!!! And if you didn't play for the 72-10 Bulls why do you even care? I wanna see history bein' made. That's the fun of livin' in this world. 

The other thing that's drivin' me crazy is all of the clowns sittin' around sayin', "Yeah, they broke the record but if they don't win the championship it's means nothin'!" Dude!!! Barrin' a rash of injuries it's a freakin' foregone conclusion that they'll win the championship!

This isn't the NCAA Tournament where boyz can just show up, get hot and win the title! You've got to win 4 best of 7 series bruh! In other words, somebody has to beat Golden State 4 times in a 7 game series! They only lost 9 games ALL SEASON long! And that was playin' back to back joints, road games etc. They've got home court advantage throughout the playoffs!! Who's gonna beat them 4 times? 

THE BEST TEAM ALWAYS WIN THE NBA TITLE!! There are no surprises playboy! Golden State is by far the best team in the league! They're better than they were last year! Stop it! 

Didn't you just see Steph Curry completely destroy the 3 point record that he set last year by more than 119 made 3's? Are we watchin' the same NBA or are you watchin' a different version of this foolishness? They aren't goin' to lose 4 times to anybody. Stop it!!

And when they do, they'll go down in history as the GREATEST TEAM to ever play this game! Why? Because 73-9 is better than 72-10 especially when they're averagin' more points with a higher field goal percentage (48 vs. 47) and 3-point percentage ( 41 vs. 40) on more than 1,077 more attempts from behind the arc. Defensively, it's a freakin' wash because Golden State's margin of victory was pretty much the same as the Bulls. They've won by 11 ppg and the Bulls won by 12 ppg.  So it's advantage Golden State because they've won one more game than Chicago! When they win it all, they'll be labeled the best team EVER! Take your emotions out of it and accept that it is what it is. The numbers don't lie!!! Stop me when I start lyin'!

Why if you're goin' to hate on Steph Curry understand the game! "Thinkers"

"This makes absolutely no sense bruh! Who put this together?"

William Shakespeare once said, "Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven." Oscar Wilde gave it to us like this, "By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, journalism keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community." Then George Bernard Shaw broke it down like a pimp at a playas convention when he spit, "Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance." 

Well playas...just like boyz were hatin' on LeBron a few years ago tryin' to compare him to Jordan usin' ignorant charts and photo's to make their points. Now they're doin' it with Steph Curry. Like I told you boyz with LeBron, I could give a rip or two dead flies about LeBron or Steph. My favorite player of all time is Kevin Garnett because of the intensity that he played the game with EVERY night. However, when I see cats put together ignorant "A" charts that make no sense it drives me crazy. At least if you're goin' to hate understand the game. 

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! This picture is somehow tryin' to insinuate that boyz played defense on Mike and nobody is playin' defense against Steph because he's takin' wide open shots. However, the idiot that put it together never thought for once that they played in entirely different offenses where one creates wide open looks and the other doesn't. 

The Bulls for example, ran the triangle where Mike took more shots than anybody in the freakin' league every year. Look up his numbers and more specifically his shot attempts every year. Therefore, everybody in the darn buildin' knew that he was gonna shoot the rock and that he was goin' to rack more often than not. Now Jordan knew more often than not that he was gonna get the shot off as evidenced by his 30.1 points per game scorin' average. He shot more than anybody in the darn league so it only makes sense that he would be drawin' double and triple teams when he went to the rack. Why? Because he WASN'T PASSIN' IT!!!! NOBODY else on that team was shootin' as often as he was so the defenses ALWAYS converged on him. 

Golden State plays a spread offense where EVERYBODY on the darn floor can shoot the rock off of the dribble. We've NEVER seen that before in the history of the game. Therefore, teams CANNOT afford to double or triple team Steph. If you do he's goin' to get rid of it and you're givin' up a wide open jumper or 3 that EVERYBODY else on the floor can knock down. So teams have to play him honest and he's knockin' down shots from 32 feet or more at 68 percent!!!! Wheredeydodatat?!!! 

You can't get up on him because he'll blow right by you. Why? Because he's got the best handles in the league outside of maybe Kyrie. If he doesn't blow by you he's dishing' it because he's a point guard and his nature is to get rid of it. Mike was shootin' that thang bruh!!! 

Sure, Mike had Steve Kerr that had the highest 3-point shootin' percentage in the history of the league at .45 but he only averaged 6 points per game. Therefore, it didn't make an ounce of sense to guard that dun if Mike had the rock. 

And if you look at these stupid pictures, every one of them is Mike in the paint. Why? Because it was illegal to double or triple team a player in the open court durin' that time period. You had to play man to man defense back then. Could you imagine havin' to guard Steph MAN TO MAN for 24 seconds? Are you kidding me? And vice versa with Mike playin' today! 

But don't put an ignorant chart together with Mike goin' to the rack 20 years ago and Steph shootin' from 32 feet out and try to compare the two because you look and sound like a fool. 

 
So all I'm sayin' bruh is that if you see this type of foolishness come across your timeline don't share it because it only makes you look like an idiot that doesn't know the game of basketball too. Sometimes it's okay not to jump on the hater's bandwagon. It's okay to be an independent thinker and say that doesn't make sense and keep it movin'. Stop me when I start lyin'!

3) Dun: noun - the person in question, dude, guy, etc. It's whoever I'm talkin' about and its non-gender specific. 
4) Wheredeydodatat: Hood for "Who does that?" 

Why Steph & Golden State are much better than the 72-10 Bulls! "Wait For It"

"Wait on it bruh! Just wait!" 

Les Brown, the motivational speaker, once said, "Life takes on meaning when you become motivated, set goals and charge after them in an unstoppable manner." Peter Coyote, the famous actor, director and screenwriter, broke it down like this, "There has to be that feeling in a good villain - that he's awesome, he has his own power; that he is, in several senses, unstoppable." Then Grace Slick, the singer-songwriter, got a little deeper than boyz expected when she spit, "Through literacy you can begin to see the universe. Through music you can reach anybody. Between the two there is you, unstoppable." 

Well playas...I don't know how much Steph Curry is readin' these days or how much music he's bumpin' but he's definitely UNSTOPPABLE! On Monday night after all of the hype comin' into this historic match-up between the Warriors and Spurs, Steph completely destroyed Greg Poppovich's defense and every dun that tried to guard him. Ole boy led Golden State on a massacre of San Antonio 120-90 further provin' to boyz that it ain't even close! Let's just skip the freakin' playoffs and send these boyz the trophy now. NOBODY'S capable of beatin' these cats in a best of 7! NOBODY! They may as well be the USA Olympic team the way they're beatin' boyz. 

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! Steph hit these boyz up for 37 points in 27 minutes bruh! Do you hear me? 27 minutes!!!! This wasn't the Lakers! These were the Spurs!!!! Greg Poppovich and Co.! If Pop can't contain this dun then he's uncontainable and that ain't even a word bruh. 

Check this out, they initially had Tony Parker guardin' him. He made that dun look silly and old real quick. Patty Mills tried his hand and got worked over like Ronda Rousey at a Holly Holm fight party. Then some dun named Jonathon Simmons tried to press this fool full court and got embarrassed to the point that Big Momma ran out on the court and twisted his ear. "Boy I told you not to embarrass me in public! Didn't I?" Yes ma'am! 

Then they finally put dusty braids O.G. Bobby Johnson on him and Steph darn near broke both of his ankles as he tried to keep up with him. Steph shook him up so bad that some of his braids came loose. Where's LaQuanna and LaKreesha when you need them? Well...that dun has needed them for about 4 years bruh and he refuses to call them.  

Keep in mind bruh that the Spurs came off in the joint with a record of 38-6! They weren't punks bruh and Golden State blasted these cats by 30 led by Steph!!! In the last four games against playoff teams (Cavs, Bulls, Pacers, Spurs) this cat has put up 135 points in 117 minutes!! Wheredeydodatat? Golden State has outscored those teams by 115 points in those minutes!! That's NUTS!!!  

Like I keep tellin' you boyz, I've never seen a TEAM as good as this one. I know that all of the old heads wanna holler about how good the 72-10 Bulls were but they weren't beatin' the brakes off of boyz like this in route to the Ship!! Now it's still early so you can't put the Warriors into the same category as the those Bulls yet but you better sit in the cut and wait for it. Boyz keep askin' can they do better than 72-10? Listen up playa, they won 67 games last year and they're much better now than they were last year. 

If they're blastin' playoff teams like this now, barrin' injury, they'll easily win 72 games or better. The only thing that can stop these cats is a boat load of injuries. But if they're healthy you can forget about Jordan's 72-10 Bulls playa. The Bulls record is history or should I say second place? 

What makes this TEAM so much better than what we've EVER seen? It's because they space the floor and EVERYBODY on the floor can create their own shot and shoot that boy!! Not only is Steph killin' you from everywhere on the floor. They've got duns on the roof shootin' too! Cats that shouldn't be shootin' are shootin'. Against San Antonio they not only had Draymond and Klay in double figures but they had duns like Brandon Rush, Marreese Speights and Shaun Livingston knockin' boyz down in double figures too. Then tomorrow they'll had another 5 or 6 combination of cats knockin' 'um down. You can't defend that bruh! The Bulls never had a team full a shooters. The same cats were killin' you every night. This TEAM as a unit is nuts!!!  In the history of the NBA WE'VE NEVER SEEN A TEAM PLAY THIS WELL TOGETHER! EVER!!!!

Again, they still have to win out and the Ship but there is no reason to believe that they can't! Sit in the cut and wait for and stop me when I start lyin'!

Turnt Up (How Steph Curry flipped the bird at the media when he let his daughter take over)

"And it ain't nothin' y'all can do about it bruh!"

Terence Winter, the famous television writer and producer, once said, “Any distraction tends to get in the way of being an effective gangster.” Derek Jeter gave it to us like this, “I think when things linger, that’s when they become a distraction. I don’t want any distractions.” Then the lil’ funny man himself, Kevin Hart, spit a gem that boyz already know but act like they don’t when he said, “At the end of the day, women are a distraction. Whether you realize it or not.”

Well playas…undisciplined little girls at NBA post-game press conferences are distractions too. Once again, the reignin’ MVP brought his daughter to the post-game presser and she literally showed out on Wednesday night, again. Earlier in the series he brought her to the joint and she acted a fool like kids that like to show out will tend to do. I’ve got two kids playboy, so I already know the drill.

Let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1^st! I know that Steph and many other players don’t look at meetin’ with the media as bein’ important but as media a member this is my freakin’ job. I’ve got no problem with a boy bringin’ his kid to the presser but you’ve got to tell your kid to sit down and be quiet while you finish workin’. It’s no different than a boy bringin’ his kid to the office for a half day and the dun starts runnin’ around the joint pullin’ stuff off of folks desks etc. And that’s the edited version!

Whether you realize it or not bruh everybody in the freakin’ room is workin’ and they’ve got deadlines to meet and people at their cribs to feed. So they aren’t amused by your kid tellin’ you to be quiet and poppin’ out from under the table or pullin’ the curtain back. She’s old enough to follow directions so give her some. That’s if you’re goin’ to bring her up there with you. Otherwise, leave her with her mother.

Duns have been bringin’ their kids to press conferences for years and it’s not a problem because they know how to act. Why? Because beforehand their dad gives them the “what for.” The instructions on how to behave when we get in this joint or else. In my Big Momma voice, “If you embarrass me in here Ima embarrass you! Now try me if you think I’m playin’!”

What kills me is that fans go crazy for some of these ball players and they could care less about them or the media. And that’s cool because I could give a rip about them either. I’m just doin’ my job playa. The fact that Steph would bring his kid to the presser twice in a week’s time knowin’ she’s gonna act a fool says a lot about who he is and how he has no control over how she acts. Especially, at 2 or 3 years old!!! 

And please don't give the "He's a black man tryin' to show the world that he's an active father" line. If he were an active father he'd have better control of his kid in front of company. All he would have needed was that "look" that active fathers and mothers give to a boy that chills a kid right on out without havin' to say a word. The fact that she was cool takin' liberties in front of him tells me that he's just her friend and playmate not her father. Even though he is her father. You'll catch that one later on today. 

Everybody that has kids knows their kids. You know what your kid is gonna do before they even do it bruh! He knows that she’s a sucker for the cameras. He knows that as soon as she sees the reporters and camera crews she gonna turn up. So why bring her up there? Because he could care less about what anybody else says or thinks. You already know what a boy is thinkin’ when they do it. In his mind he’s like, “Screw these folks! I can do whatever I want to do and my kid can to. Screw ‘um I’m the MVP!” And that’s the edited version!

He’s a great basketball player but what does it say about who he is as a person? It says that I don’t care about anybody but me and mine. Don’t act like you’re the end all because guess what pimpin’, boyz would be hollerin’ at somebody else if Golden State hadn’t won the Western Conference. We don’t give two dead flies smashed who win the freakin’ games as long as somebody wins. Whoever wins the joint we’re coverin’ it. And that’s the edited version.

It’s called havin’ respect for boyz doin’ their jobs bruh! I didn’t let my kid run out on the floor while he was in mid-jumper pullin’ one of those three-boyz up. I didn’t let my kid run off in their huddle durin’ a timeout! I didn’t let my kid knock over all of the Gatorade on the bench. So if I didn’t do that, let me do my job after the game playa and respect my hustle too. 

Boy look at the media as a waste of their time but it's because of the media that they make the millions of dollars boyz are gettin' now. It's called a 24 hour news cycle pimpin' that reaches the masses. So before you diss me and my colleagues (who can be dull) go ask duns like Bill Russell how much bread he was makin' in the '60's winnin' all those chamionships without the media. Ask duns like Dr. J and Moses how much bread they made when the NBA Finals were on tape delay in the '70's. I'm just sayin'! Stop me when I start lyin’!
