The @club520podcast on the event Jeff Teague: "You know when you lose, you start putting money up just to check a n**** pocket... It's not meant for professional basketball players to play 1v1 against YouTube pros. It's 2 different type of games."

Every one of these type of notifications hit so hard. Stacey King made watching bad Bulls seasons more enjoyable with his commentary. Truly was the one person you could count on every game Im sick to my stomach. RIP Stacey King
