2Pac Pulls Up Live on 92.3 The Beat. Fresh off the release of All Eyez On Me.
February 1996. Morning of the Grammys.
All Eyez on Me had only been out about two weeks when P Funk from 92.3 The Beat pulled up live on John London & The House Party morning show with Tupac sitting right next to him.
Still riding that All Eyez On Me wave. Still in the streets. Still unfiltered.
Pac jokes that P Funk was outside in his drawls trying to get in the Grammys, so he dragged him into the limo and told him to put some clothes on.
2Pac clowned Funk because he said Ol’ Dirty Bastard needs to win an award over him.
Pac even talks about trying to put together a California Love show with Snoop and get it on 92.3 The Beat.
He also promoted Snoop’s “Tha Doggfather” album & “2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted” future video shoot.
If you Listen close — you can even hear Monica’s Before You Walk Out of My Life about to play in the background.
Months later, Pac sends the love right back to The Beat on 2 Live & Die In LA.
“This go out for 92.3…”
One of the last times we heard 2Pac feeling very optimistic for his future after the release of All Eyez On Me.

When Jay Z does D’Evils, then drops his verse in from Rick Ross’ Free Masons, then transitions into Snoop’s Murder Was the Case WITH SNOOP! Night 2 going crazy!

The problem isn't that Giannis moves to the dunker, it's the fact that he is just walking. Giannis has to run the play in full speed to present like he is a threat to cause the defense to help and shift or maybe leverage and seal for inside positioning.
Walking to the spot is crazy

You’re confusing guys who are dynamic scorers being coached into being able to run sets and call plays and bring the ball up the floor. Coaches can do that.
Coaches can’t teach a guy the nuance of the point guard spot. It’s an instinct and skill that you either have or not

Joe Mazzulla on reports of the Celtics vibes being high at training camp
"Every team you lead is the most together team right now. Because we haven't traveled. No one's gotten benched. No one's been on a losing streak. No one's gotten blamed in the media. No one's had to go stand in the corner for 10 minutes and not get the ball. So, you learn those things as the season goes on, and you just learn how to work through those things together. And you can't simulate those. It just comes with time. And so, right now I would say all 30 teams feel great about themselves, and we got to wait till adversity hits. And adversity is even a strong word. There's nothing really adverse about playing in the NBA. But we got to wait until stuff doesn't go your way, and then you got to figure out who we are and how we're going to be at our best."

You 110% correct, i was thinking of Cam Thomas when i tweeted & mixed my tweet up.
Bones still 6’2/6’3 but he isn’t a defender that Denver felt needed on the floor.
He ran into the problem of others less talented doing 1 or 2 things that a team needed that he doesn’t do great.
Which is defend with effort at a high level & play a role within a system.
Bones, like you said shoots the shit out the ball, so you cant cut him…. But to them, it’s hard to play him.

It’s crazy people call for private landlords because they feel easier to run off on…
Landlords protect yourselves from the heathens looking to take advantage of mom and pop landlords
Not saying it’s everyone but if the shoe fits

Appreciate us being able to handle it off the internet bro!
Met up with @_Reasonofficial last night, we spoke like men ….I’m mad as hell still about certain things and we expressed our feelings but calling him a “bitch” wasn’t necessary. Salute to homie and appreciate us handling things like gentlemen.

Lauri is so clearly the best player in this graphic that’s it’s borderline insane to even have to discuss this.
Lmao
Michael Porter Jr. thinks he and Julius Randle could lead the Nets to 50+ wins next season

Ahead of their 2003 playoff matchup, Kobe Bryant named Kevin Garnett his choice for MVP—calling Garnett one of the players he respects the most in the NBA:
"That's my man right there. It's a shame that it has to come down to us battling in the first round. I just have a lot of love for that dude."
Kobe recalled how Garnett settled his nerves during his first All-Star Game in 1998:
"I was a little nervous. Kevin came up to me and said, 'Hey, run with me, young fella, I'm gonna get you involved here. Just go out there, relax and have a good time.'
That's when he threw me a lob on the fast break. I dunked it and he patted me on the butt real hard and started screaming... Since that day, man, I've just had so much love for him."
