Ben Simmons FIRED back at Patrick Beverley after Beverley said he doesn’t deserve to be back in the NBA after “quitting” the game of basketball 😳 Beverley: “I don’t think it’s fair that you can quit the game of basketball & come back. Like, you can quit with not...

Quitting was always a reach. He was genuinely hurt. You don’t mess around with back injuries.

Ben Simmons is a 6'10 PG that can defend and rebound, Victor Oladipo is 6'3 guard that offers nothing outside of scoring and he's not even good at that anymore..

Pat using Oladipo instead of just saying it could have been me is funny as fukk 🤣 I say that because why else would you say this about someone getting another opportunity ? Just comes off as hate to me 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

Anyone who comes back from multiple back injuries isn’t soft or a quitter, so there’s that

1. “Fair” is irrelevant. 2. These are two completely different players. Ben Simmons is 6 foot 10. Oladipo is like 6’4”.

Some people dont know how a spinal injury and surgery can make you move or even do any differently. So ben simmons taking a year break from basketball was smart so he wouldn’t have put any more stress on it if he forced himself to play

I'm tired of these players getting in a mic and saying shit like they're some type of authority. He's mad he's not in the league anymore. There's been plenty of players who didn't get another shot, plenty that did. Why just choose Ben Simmons to point out.

Patrick Beverley says the media killed Russell Westbrook’s game: “I think the media is so strong that it allowed fans to call him names. It allowed fans to have opinions about his game, which also forced team owners, GMs, presidents to look at him a certain way. When you talk about guards that’s in the NBA and it’s no disrespect to guys that’s on current teams but when you talk about you see Lonnie Walker and it’s no disrespect to Lonnie Walker he’s a good friend of mine but if he can make a NBA team Russell Westbrook can make an NBA team without a doubt.” (Via Patrick Beverley)

Pete Carroll says winning championships was never actually the point “It isn’t about winning the championship. It’s not about that. As soon as you win it, it’s over with. It’s in your back pocket. You’ve already done that.” “That’s not the motivator. The motivator is to be the best you can possibly be. That’s ongoing. It never ends. I’m not a big goals guy.” “Goals, you achieve them. To me, I want ongoing, never-ending aspirations of being great at what you’re doing. There is no one game that is the only game. There is no one accomplishment that’s the only accomplishment.” “Can you come back again? Is that really who you are? Is that worth fighting for?” “Can you be true to yourself? Can you really be yourself under all circumstances? No matter what happens, when you get your ass whipped in the freaking Super Bowl, when you had two in a row and you’re two seconds from doing it again, can you come back after that moment and still be who you are?” “That was what the challenge was to me. As hard as that looked, as hard as it felt, and as hard as it was on all the people around me, I took it like this: ‘Okay, you knew this was going to happen sometime.’ ‘Are you going to be the real deal or not?’”

#49ers Nick Bosa discussed the mental aspect of the game and said his love for the game helped him return after he tore his ACL: “You start out wanting to quit, never play again and never put your body in that position again. Then slowly you realize that you love this game and you want to get back to it. I mean I’ve never doubted I can get back to where I am. I’m It’s a good thing I play today and not back when my dad did, because I probably wouldn’t be playing anymore. But luckily, they fix ACLs pretty good, I’m feeling pretty good, and my mind is also better.”

jihoon answering teumes’ worries at dawn live 👤: I really wanted to receive a psychiatric (treatment) but I don’t have the courage to do it. Should I go? I think I’m going to have a hard time accepting that I am falling apart. 🐶: but I recommend going to the psychiatrist, whether if it’s receiving a psychological counselling or a psychiatric examination, it’s good to receive a treatment for it. Everyone, going to the psychiatrist doesn’t make you weird. If you caught a cold, you go to the internal medicine department, If your joints or bones hurts, you go to the orthopaedics. It’s just a cold that come to the mind. It’s not that going to the psychiatrist makes me a weird person, no it’s not that. It’s just that I’m exhausted for a while, it’s just a hospital. There’s more people going there more than you think, if you go to hospital, the queuing are the longest. Nowadays, it’s the same as the past too but there’s no one who doesn't have a hard time. In this hard world, although there are people who look at the hard times in a good way, & there are also people who don’t look at it in a good way… but since it’s a world where we lived together, there's nothing we can do about it, right? But those kind of, “ah I went to the psychiatrist & I collapsed” I don’t think you have think of that. It’s just, “I am having a hard time these days so I’m just going to get help for it” just think of it as if you caught a cold. I hope you don’t think of this deeply. Of course you can go. If your stomach hurt, you can go to the internal medicine, if your head hurts, you can go to the Otolaryngology. It’s just that your heart is having a hard time for a while. This is not something to be ashamed of, you don’t need to read the air with the people around you for this. Always cheer up, even if you collapse, let's practice the strength that can make you rise again slowly, treasure makers. You can do it, everyone, I know you can do it.

Luke Kuechly says he knew it was time to retire from the NFL because he was no longer 100% mentally committed to hitting players at full force “I used to just go smack dudes and have no issues. And I would go hit a guy and I’m like, ‘Yeah, that didn’t really feel great.’ And so then, once you make the decision in your mind, I’m not all the way in it… like the last game of the year, I was like, ‘I’m done. I’m done’” “I just remember after that game, I was like, ‘Yeah, you don’t got it anymore. You don’t have it.’ I would've been fine if I physically slowed down. Can’t run as well, not as fast, maybe I’m not as physical. Maybe I don’t have the same fire. I would have been fine with that and I would have probably milked it out a little bit more” “Once I knew it was my head, mentally, it’s either yes or no. If you slow down, physically, you can still play football hard, play it fast and play with great effort. But once I knew mentally, it’s not any of that, I couldn’t rationalize. I can’t play as hard as I want to. My effort’s not going to be there. I can’t be as physical. It’s not fair to the guys on the team, and it’s not fair to the coaches, and it’s not fair to the fans and myself and my family for me to go out there at mentally 75%’” “If I got to thump a guard and push a guy back to Shaq to make a play, and I’m like, ‘Eh,’ and I get widened, and then the tackle is really hard on Shaq. That’s not fair to Shaq. For me to know, especially mentally, the reason why I’m not stuffing that guy. I didn’t take him on, I didn’t hit him how I should've. I couldn’t do that”

Patrick Beverley says if the free throws are even between SGA and LeBron the series can be very interesting: “What I mean very interesting, I mean can go game 6 or game 7. And if you go game 6 or game 7 hopefully you look for Luka to come back, you know, you go game 6 or game 7 this series can go either way. But the Lakers are going to lose by 20 one of the first two games. They just got to revamp real quickly, they can’t panic, you feel me, can’t go to the media and can’t believe we played like this and JJ Redick, no. Y’all going to lose by 20 in one of these first two games, but if they can even the free throws out between King James and the future in SGA this becomes a very, very interesting series.” (Via Patrick Beverley)

Chris Bosh explains how Kobe Bryant taught him that greatness is mostly an unglamorous routine “If you’re trying to go after something, it’s a process and you cannot cheat it. That is one thing you cannot do. You can’t cheat the process, and even then that doesn’t guarantee you anything. You have to have your stuff together because you want to win, that doesn’t guarantee a win. You just have to make sure you’re doing your process.” “I had the chance to have a conversation with Kobe. We were friendly and we tried to have dinner once a year. He always talked about loving the process of what you do. That’s important. You have to love what you do and love putting the work in because some days are going to suck. It’s always going to suck to go in the gym and shoot 10,000 free throws.” “Everybody’s like, ‘Oh, Kobe, this is amazing.’ He’s like, ‘Yeah, that’s cool, but think about my day. I get up at 4:30am, take my kids to school, I lift weights, I go to practice, I pick them up from school, then I’ve got to do treatment because I’m 35 years old in the league. Then I’ve got to do treatment, and by the time I finish all that stuff, the day’s over. I don’t do anything else. This is all I do.’” “If you take on that approach to something that you love, if you can stick with it even in those tough days, that’s where you want to be.” “You gotta love the grind, man. That’s the part I always like to think of anytime something gets hard. If I’m pursuing a goal and I want to quit, it’s going to come. It’s going to come. It’s okay.” “How many people would quit right now? That’s the first thing I think about. Then I keep going. I’m like, okay, I’m not going to let this drop me off and keep me away from what I’m doing.”

You can get right to it if you want. It’s a bit of an event. It’s not a sport. Sports were on the ground. I’m seeing how they presented it from what it used to be to what it is now…. You got to play with an edge. You got to be in the gym. If your celebrity is in front of your work, then that’s a problem… I don’t know if our players are working at steam engine or peak level. I watch workouts. I hate the walk back to grab It then go. I hate that sh*t. That’s not game speed” (Via

To question a guy who’s injured that shows nothing but love for the game of basketball is bullsh*t.

Why do I have to try so hard to beat an average team I’m not even joking I know it’s DDA but man it’s not fun anymore knowing that you are clearly better than someone but the game is forcing a close result to keep the losing guy to play more so he eventually spends on the game and doesn’t quit

I don’t think this can be pointed to the FCC or the trump administration and say, well, this is about them going after Kimmel because of what he said. Personally, I think it’s more of a cultural issue. And I got to tell you. I’m about as moderate a Republican as you can get. I’m from New York. I have not been comfortable watching late-night television for 15 years because when you have conservative leanings and you’re constantly mocked and you’re constantly feel like you’re doing something wrong, you shut it off. You don’t watch it anymore. And then what happens is it’s circular. If the host doesn’t have that audience, the host doesn’t worry about keeping an audience like that. It goes in circles. And, at some point, you get things like this where you say things.”

Charlie Villanueva says he don’t like Dwyane Wade telling Patrick Beverley he can’t speak on the debate between him and James Harden: “I would disagree with him on the part where he said you can’t speak on that because you can’t fu*k with me or I’m way better then you This, that, and the third. That’s why I would disagree with him because I think Pat Bev is more equipped to speak on it because being in the NBA it’s exclusive. It’s like going to the fu*king playboy mansion, it’s an exclusive group. It’s only exclusive people in the party, so I’m in there I seen what’s going on, so I can speak on it. Because I’ve been there. So, what I’m saying is Pat Bev is in the league, he experienced D-Wade maybe he didn’t experience when D-Wade was fu*king D-Wade but he’s seen something. He knows something. So he can speak on it.” (Via ToTheBaha)

Bam Adebayo GOES IN on the critics that says his 83 point game performance is unethical: "For the couch coaches, I mean, if you're in my shoes and you have, first of all, y'all are blaming me. You should be blaming the head coach. Get that first. I was not the one letting me go one-on-one the whole game until I had 70, and then you started to send a double. At that point, I got 70 with, like, what? nine minutes left to go in the game you think i'm not going for it like like and that's the thing that's crazy when they talk about the unethical part of the basketball i'm like if i have 70 points with 9 minutes to go Who would just be like, you know, coach, just take me out. Yeah, right. Anybody in my shoes with nine minutes left? Okay. A minute? All right. Nine? Yeah, I'm going for it. You can't be mad at that. If you are mad, I don't care because a lot of people, they're upset because if they did play, they never had a chance to get that close to chasing greatness. And then if you get that close to chasing greatness, that's the point of chasing it so you can surpass it. And some of the people have never played basketball. So like if you've been in the backyard and you and a couple of your homies have been playing 21 and you got 19. You're not going to get an easy look off. And four, they're going to talk about the free throws. It's not like I shoot 15 free throws a game. It's not like I average 10 free throws a game. You can watch the film. I was legitimately getting fouled every time. So I went to the free throw line."

Bam Adebayo GOES IN on the critics that says his 83 point game performance is unethical: "For the couch coaches, I mean, if you're in my shoes and you have, first of all, y'all are blaming me. You should be blaming the head coach. Get that first. I was not the one letting me go one-on-one the whole game until I had 70, and then you started to send a double. At that point, I got 70 with, like, what? nine minutes left to go in the game you think i'm not going for it like like and that's the thing that's crazy when they talk about the unethical part of the basketball i'm like if i have 70 points with 9 minutes to go Who would just be like, you know, coach, just take me out. Yeah, right. Anybody in my shoes with nine minutes left? Okay. A minute? All right. Nine? Yeah, I'm going for it. You can't be mad at that. If you are mad, I don't care because a lot of people, they're upset because if they did play, they never had a chance to get that close to chasing greatness.

Sinner on if there’s anything Djokovic doesn’t do as well as he used to, ‘I’m lucky to have someone like him in front of my eyes & I can hopefully learn something… I think the way he is playing and moving, if you are not professional, you don’t play at this level’ “Novak will be 39 in May. Do you think there are things he doesn’t do as well now as he used to?” Jannik: “The level he is still playing, he is I think the most professional athlete we have here in the locker room. Me as a 24 year old, I am lucky to have someone like him in front of my eyes and I can hopefully learn something. I feel like every day and every time he plays I can learn something about him, about Carlos, about all the other great, great players. I think the way he is playing and moving, if you are not professional, you don’t play at this level. He is an inspiration for all of us, especially young players.” (via Australian Open Press)

Anthony Edwards explains why he dapped up the Spurs with 8 minutes left: “Yeah it’s 8 minutes but we not going back in the game. When you win a playoff series everybody is celebrating at the end of the game. They’ll be smiling while I’m pissed off. I was like ‘let me go ahead and congratulate these boys because I’m not going to be laughing with y’all after you whooped my ass.’ I didn’t want to go dal them n***** up at all. But then what would they have said About me? That’s why I’m me and y’all are whoever y’all are.” (Via

You’re not too old. You’re not too broken. And you’re not too far gone. I’m turning 62 in 2 weeks. I post videos of myself training, but not to impress anyone. I’m not chasing likes. I’m not trying to prove I’m elite. And I’m not pretending everyone should be able to do what I do. There was a time, like for many of you, when I struggled to find time to train at all. Three young kids. A demanding job. Little balance. Fitness wasn’t even on the back burner—it was off the stove entirely. But it came back. With work. With consistency. With a mindset shift. I don’t post because I think you should do exactly what I do. I post because I want to show you what’s possible. Because we lose what we don’t train. Because we assume age means decline. Because we assume the risk is too high. And because we assume—somewhere deep down that it’s too late. But it’s not. You may not aim to lift a certain weight or hit a specific number. But you can move better. You can get stronger. You can build resilience. And you can surprise yourself. This isn’t about showing off. It’s about showing up... to see what’s possible for you.

Iman Shumpert on the difference between playing with LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony: “With Bron, the most that I learned from was just like what I’m looking at in the game. Like the times that I’m thinking TA just trying to get a stop and Bron like no TA trying to speed you up or slow you down because it’s a two for one situation and you just don’t know. He taking advantage of you. So you taking the bait because you don’t know what the fu*k you doing. And he like, you know he looking at me like Melo ain’t teach you. But it’s like anytime Melo said two for one I went but I didn’t know what the fu*k you talking about gang. Like I was embarrassed to tell Melo I ain’t know what the fu*k going on. For real though. This me being transparent at 21. Like Melo telling me some sh*t I don’t know. But Melo not the type of n***a that’s going to grab you after the game, sit you down, say this was the play, circle it. Melo kind of internalizes it be like, Damn, his young a** I can’t expect his young a** to know that, so I need to score another five points, I need to do a little bit more. He like, it can’t be Shump fault. You know what I’m saying? And Bron kind holds you accountable like, I’m going to throw a turnover if you’re not in the spot I told you to be. I’m going to throw a blind pass over my head and if you not there I’m going to tell coach to take you out.” (Via Out The Mud Podcast)

Magic Johnson says Dwyane Wade is the greatest, most unselfish superstar in NBA history after the Heat won in 2013: Magic: You are now one of the greatest winners and champions, but to me you’re the greatest, most unselfish superstar that’s ever played in this game. How do you decide when you recruit LeBron as the face of the franchise, you’re one of the two best players in the league. You and Kobe were dominating the league at that time. Then you take a step back and say ‘it’s your team.’ how did you do that? Wade: One of the hardest things I had to do. I remember watching the finals in 2010, Lakers vs Celtics. I remember watching Kobe running after the ball for his 5th championship. I said ‘I want that! I want that again!’ I’m a hater because I was mad that he had 5… I knew I’d have to take a step back. It’s not easy but I wanted to win.

Max Strus says making the NBA required him to accept he doesn’t have a bag anymore and that shooting got him on the floor but defense would keep him out there “I don’t have a bag. I used to have a bag back in college, but I don’t anymore because you find what your niche is and you just go at it.” “I knew shooting the basketball was going to get me on the floor, and then I knew playing defense was going to keep me on the floor. I’ll guard the best player. I don’t care. They’re going to score on me because everybody’s that good. You can’t really stop anybody anyway.” “So it’s like, how can I make it as tough as possible on them? I don’t need to shoot the ball. I’m all right. I can do other things that I know are helping the team win. How can I make Donovan Mitchell better? How can I make James Harden better? How can I make Jarrett Allen better?” “If I feel like I haven’t gotten a shot, it’s like, all right, go crash the offensive rebound and get it. I’m not going to sit here and cry to myself about not shooting the ball or not being involved. Make yourself useful.” “My first couple years [in Miami], I don’t think I dribbled the ball once. Come off a handoff and shoot, come off a screen and shoot, and then defend and rebound. That’s all I did.” “As you continue to build more confidence within the team, within the coach, they put you in positions where, all right, now I can do a little bit more.” “You’ve got to have the humbleness to humble yourself to, ‘I’m not that guy anymore. I can’t be that guy anymore.’ But then be ready for the opportunity when it does come, ‘No, I could still be that guy. That’s just not what we need right now. But when we do, I got you.’”
