Danillo is looking a little bit better each game. He hasnt played in like 15 months, needs some time to find himself on the court again.

Yeah...I bet the QB with the most career incompletions and the baseball player with most outs made are decent names as well.

I wasn't alive when it happened, so.... no.

You're a Kobe (Lakers) fan though, right?

Looks like Brett Favre and Pete Rose hold those records.

Kobe, chucker. Carried to titles by Shaq and Pau Gasol. That's how he will be remembered.

I'll also remember Kobe as taking a ridiculously large contract at the expense of putting together an even remotely competent team.

Those comments made by DRose were an absolute joke, no way I would want that dude on my team. Not a winning mentality.

He's still a top 100 PG in the league. JK, he's trash. Anyone who thinks Drose is even remotely a good player doesn't know basketball. HE'S GARBAGE.

What he said is one of the worst things I've ever heard a star say, maybe the worst. Imagine is Lebron had said that. He is not a leader nor a winner with that mentality.

Well he's never won anything so I totally agree. The only way Rose ever wins anything is if he signs a vets minimum deal to ride the Cavs bench during Lebron's second stint. Problem is, the Cavs could probably find better value with that money.

In discussing why he sits out so many games in order to make sure he's healthy:

“I’m thinking about after I’m done with basketball,’’ Rose said, “having graduations to go to, having meetings to go to. I don’t want to be in my meetings all sore or be at my (2-year-old) son’s graduation all sore just because of something I did in the past.’’

In other words: "I don't want to push myself too hard...because when I'm done making all my basketball money, I don't want to have any nagging pain take away from chillin'."

Sounds like a pay cut, to me.

Bet he didn't have a problem cashing those checks when he sat out all those games when he was medically cleared to pay. What a joke, no defending him at all.

As a Calipari-ite, he's probably just too used to taking shortcuts, first to be eligible in college while putting in as little work as possible and now to cash checks for as little work as possible.

Glad he didn't put too much work into his free throw shooting while at Memphis [emoji41]
