Are we actually living through the most chaotic era in human history, or are we just the first generation with social media forced to watch every tragedy on earth unfold in real time, and the world has always been this dark, we were just never close enough to see it?

Kobe Bryant once said:
“I have nothing in common with lazy people who blame others for their lack of success. Great things come from hard work and perseverance. No excuses.”

Coaches need to come out and say this more. Media days are here. Use your platform and go for it.

DeMarcus Cousins on when the league changed to switch everything on defense:
“When they started putting the bigs on the guards, “Oh, man it’s the fu*king worst.” The guards can’t guard the guards what the fu*k you think I can guard them. I mean, when it’s Steph, Dame. I’m slow. Like you said never been chase like that before. Once that new era came in and every possession get the big on the guard you know, drag him out it’s like, “Bro, I hate basketball like what the fu*k is this?”
That is a crazy thing Boogie came into the league when it was still two bigs and not a lot of switching out to the guards and then it change to switch everything definitely had to be hard for traditional big men to adjust to.

Kelvin Sampson says the team has no distractions:
“I think the last eight years, we’ve won about 240-something games. It’s because we have no distractions. We’re consistent. The one thing about this program is our consistency.”
“I don’t recruit problems. I learned a long time ago — if you don’t want problems then don’t recruit them. It’s not an accident that we have great kids.”
“If I don’t want to coach them, then that means I don’t mind coaching against them. And a lot of the guys we take, I don’t mind coaching against them. Check our record.”

He isn't lying at all. I attend every PV home game and the stadium is never packed out. Just had our first sellout at the stadium for LDC coming after the SWAC championship. All people care about is homecoming and thats the problem alumni dont want to admit

Kids are supposed to be bored sometimes. Stop trying to entertain them 24/7. Being bored is how you develop hobbies and spark imagination.
