    The NBA is so much more than just getting paid to play basketball....some ? just aint happy doing all the other extra ? that goes along with playing the game at a professional level....the NBA probably aint what he thought it was...

    I remember Allen Iverson saying NBA ? is lames....it takes a certain type of ? to make it to the NBA and NFL or any field where white folks are the gate keepers..they make sure nuthin but sucka ? get through.....


    Must be hard for a real ? ....happy he left to do his own thing and to make himself happy...

    Man shut up lol You fukin serious? So a black man cant exist in a workplace doing what you do, with 75% of the people who look just like you, same age as you ...

    Then what is an ideal workplace?? Some nggas is just averse to ? WORK. Hence they ? on,college, ? on corporate, but talk that 'ima be a boss' empty ass ?

    So just cuz a ? look like u then everything is all good? ? wasnt happy so he bounced...simple as that..it take a certain type a ? to get to the NBA....most of them ? dont stand for ? .

    I dont even know what this means and neither do you

    But the nba is filled with nggas who if not for bball would be heavy in gangs (monta ellis, captin jack, etc), daily weed smokers (jr smith), lame nggas, cool nggas, whatever

    Oh, and MOST do all the above and hoop. Collecting checks playin at 50% of they potential. So you babblin nonsense

    Never heard of him.


    Was about to say he was an idiot until I found out he has some sort of mental illness.


    That's as far as I read though.

    I walked away from an historically esoteric fraternal organization although I was a high ranking member. With that status came money, women and valuable connections.

    It wasn't worth millions but it was certainly mid six figures. Why did I walk away? I didn't have inner peace. A lot of dirt has accumulated on these hands and I couldn't bear to handle anymore.

    I'm a heartless dude but at some point you have to ask "is this ? worth it?" And it wasn't.

    My net worth is not what it was a couple years ago but I'm happy with the position in life I control now.

    Everybody has a price, it all depends on the value you place on your spiritual and mental wellbeing.

    I don't blame homie for choosing to walk away from the league. End of the day...some ? just ain't worth it.
