      $100 to come into the barbershop and get a cut is absurd, my barbers been cutting my hair for damn near 10 years now and he just went up to $50 like a few months ago after being at $40 for 3 years.
      His house calls are $100-$150 cuz now he’s gotta pack all his tools, drive his whip 15-60 minutes away, spend an hour or two cutting hair, clean up & pack it away for the return. That makes sense, but coming into a shop and expecting me to pay that is a joke man 😂

    Luka has always reminded me of leo messi. A fierce killer on the court that never stops having fun, and a little shyness off the court that shows him very transparent and genuine in every answer. The sense of humor when he's at comfort, the natural talent that makes it hard for him to explain how he does things, and finally and more important: the way he smiles. It's amazing to see the similarities.

      ​@varjag Luka loves it in Dallas and has been on record saying he wants to retire a mav just like Dirk. You said Dallas isn't trying..... lmfao....... they traded for KP and it didn't work out because KP was to busy crying about playing 2nd fiddle to Luka. Then they trade for Kyrie. The Mavs are one of the best organizations on the planet regardless of the sport. Cuban bought the Mavs and started flying his players on a private jet stocked with personal chefs, top flight masseuse's, put them in 5 star hotels, and much more that I'm not going to list. You saying the Mavs are not a top organization shows me how little you know about them. The only problem is they're not on the east or west coast so it's hard to lure free-agents. That's it. With Dirk, the Mavs won 50 games or more 12 years straight. The only organization that has more is the Spurs. Plus they've win a ring recently and they will win another very soon. Within the next 5 years they will win again. Luka and Kyrie is going to prove to be to much to handle in the playoffs.

I don't think you can get one without the other, I'm not sure I would like if he played as robot-like as Kawhi. He should absolutely work on controlling his emotions better, but it's sad if he loses the authenticity.

    A lot of the old timers need to improve their argument when it comes to hand-checking and this video sums up why that is. More fouls are called nowadays and guys are shooting way more free throws. The fact that animating your body after any contact is referred to as "selling" should tell you everything you need to know.

    • @abuyusufabdulhakim952
      @abuyusufabdulhakim952 Před 2 měsíci

      JJ's argument makes no sense. Why would hand-checking lead to more fouls? If it's not a foul, it just means defenders will be able to prevent attackers from driving by, receiving the ball, which in turn allows them to close the shooting space. All of a sudden, shooting 3s becomes much more difficult, percentages drop, and the spacing disappears.
