Good Evening from Philadelphia
Just finished watching the Sixers blow a chance to beat the Cavs led by Lebron James last week, where the reason why they lost is directly tied to Sam Hinkie, the General Manager of the Sixers, and his tank-to-win-draft-choices philosophy.
This guy has turned the team into a merry-go-round of who knows who is gonna get traded or cut next and he has made it clear that his primary motivation is to fuck over the fans while fishing for a potential future with injured players he HOPES will be able to play again next year. Real players that he acquires during TRADES solely so he can SHIP THEM SOMEWHERE ELSE. And a constant meddling with the coach where it is obvious sometimes when he is just drawing up plays that make no sense, like tonight's final play against Charlotte where the game was VERY WINNABLE, heaven-forbid we win games we can actually win. But Brett Brown drew up a play where Ish Smith was blatantly obviously never going to do anything except for try to hit the game winning layup regardless of how open ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNY-BODY ELSE GOT!
Look? I like this rag-tag group of guys they have. But I'm tired of the fuckin excuses. I have literally watched this Sixers team INTENTIONALLY FUCKIN LOSE GAMES IN THE MIDST OF WINNING GAMES, JUST LIKE TONIGHT! Just like FUCKIN TONIGHT! And to fuckin do what!? Lemme get this shit off my chest RIGHT NOW! And so that it can be easily seen, I'm gonna give my point some space so it CAN BE SEEN. Okay? Ready? Go!
Analytics? In American Basketball is the piss-poor attempt by White Americans to keep themselves in positions of power and relevance in a sport that is CLEARLY DOMINATED by Black Americans. The embracing of Analytics BY WHITES in American Basketball is a clear and TYPICAL ATTEMPT by Whites to stay in power in a league that is White owned and dominated in the critical areas of control. But it has become blatantly obvious that many of TODAY'S VETERAN PLAYERS are looking to move BEYOND BEING A BASKETBALL PLAYER AND PUSH FOR OWNERSHIP AND UPPER-MANAGEMENT POSITIONS IN THE NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION.
Most Black Americans involved with American Basketball could give two fucks about Analytics in basketball and many of the Greatest Black American Players both past-&-present often times SCOFF AT ANALYTICS because they actually see it for what it is. Another bullshit attempt by Whites to come up with A NEW EXCUSE a NEW HURDLE for Black Americans to jump through to be "QUALIFIED" to have real positions of power. Sam Hinkie, this douche bag-bastard here;
Has been a BIG TIME PROPONENT of analytics and he has constantly used that bullshit to tamper with this fuckin team since the day he fuckin got here. Many people have marveled at his ability to wheel-&-deal draft picks! I on the other hand, have not. Many people have marveled about how he's managed the salary cap for The Sixers, I have not. Many people have also become PISSED that this entire tank the team on purpose shit keeps getting RESET, where the team gets TANKED AGAIN ON PURPOSE, which means lose games ON PURPOSE to get a higher draft position in the lottery. But so far I haven't really been impressed with who he has gone and drafted, BESIDES THE OBVIOUS. And then they are always HURT OR FOREIGN PLAYERS WHO CANNOT PLAY THE YEAR THEY ARE DRAFTED! Which then pushes the Tanking to THE NEXT YEAR! This guy being GM is like a bad marriage IN DOG YEARS! And his ass is starting to find out that this is PHILADELPHIA! People will run up on you ON THE STREET AND PUT YOU ON THE SPOT FOR FUCKIN WITH THE CITY-POLITICS AND THE CITY-SPORTS TEAMS!
As a Blackman born and raised in South Philadelphia during the Crack Epidemic I don't like BULLSHITTERS! I don't like muthafucka's LYING TO ME! AND I DON'T LIKE PIECES-A-SHIT INTERFERING WHEN WE TAKE MATTERS INTO OUR OWN HANDS SINCE THE MUTHAFUCKA'S THAT SHOULD AREN'T DOING IT! I was raised where WE BOARDED UP CRACK HOUSES! AND THE FUCKIN CITY CAME AND CITED MY PARENTS AND MY FRIENDS PARENTS CUZ WE WEREN'T GONNA LET THE CRACKHEADS TAKE OVER OUR FUCKIN NEIGHBORHOODS AND USE THE ABANDON HOUSES AS PLACES TO SMOKE CRACK!
Mind you? No fuckin nothing ever published about the fact that Black People IN BLACK NEIGHBORHOODS FOUGHT FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOODS WHEN WHITES BROUGHT CRACK INTO THE COMMUNITY AND OUR COUNTRY! So fuck you muthafucka's that think that all we do here is sit around and commit crimes and let shit go to shit in our neighborhoods! Eat a DICK BITCHES-N-BASTARDS! EAT A DICK! HAHAHHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHA! I'm PISSED! Because this asshole is just fuckin around BECAUSE HE CAN. And then when shit hits the fan he'll be OUTTA HERE on the first plane SMOKIN TO SOMEWHERE ELSE!
When someone comes up with the brilliant plan of losing for the supposed sake of GAINING SOMETHING, you gotta be extra fuckin on-alert! Because more likely than not that person proposing that plan has a backdoor OUT! If shit goes south. I like Nerlens Noel. Carter-Williams showed me something his rookie year that I thought was IMPOSSIBLE! I saw a point guard able to ACTUALLY PLAY WITH EVAN TURNER. But that shit only looked odd because prior to that BULLSHITTIN ASS DOUG COLLINS was INTENTIONALLY feeding a rivalry between Jrue Holiday and Evan Turner, which just looked FUCKIN AWKWARD AS TWO DOGS FUCKIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET! Doug Collins ass is HATED IN THIS CITY, because of the BULLSHIT HE PULLED where he REFUSED to give Nikola Vucevic the minutes his rookie year! When Vuc showed he wasn't fuckin afraid to fuckin play! Then he dealt him to ORLANDO in the Andrew Bynum deal that led to the massive DISASTER of Bynum NEVER PLAYING ONE FUCKIN TIME FOR THE SIXERS!
For the record? I liked the Bynum trade till I found out he'd dealt Vuc and I IMMEDIATELY HATED IT! Because even I knew that Bynum had BAD KNEES! AND VUC DIDN'T! So to do anything other than HOLD ONTO VUC WHILE PICKING UP BYNUM, WAS SUICIDALLY STUPID! But once again it becomes a thing of; I'm gonna do what I want, I'M WHITE! -_- And for the record I'm fully aware EVERY WHITE PERSON can't do what they want....
Unless they're shooting someone Black.
And is a cop.
Who thought they were in fear for their life.
Because that Blackman had the strength of A HUNDRED BLACKMEN!
What does alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll this shit mean? Ok, now it's time for me to be serious. What it actually means is that this is what happens when YOU DON'T OWN ANYTHING. The NBA is a WHITE OWNED, WHITE DOMINATED-&-CONTROLLED LEAGUE in all of the areas that count. PERIOD. But as usual, the workers, are almost ENTIRELY. BLACK. I have gone for 5-6 years without watching basketball and I did so in the early 2000's when it was obvious that the NBA was HELLBENT on keeping the Portland Trailblazers, with all their drama-filled crazy Black team members, as far away from advancing in the playoffs as possible, because they didn't "represent" what the White Ownership wanted their league to be. It was so pathetic that I actually had one of my sworn-brothers come over to watch the last playoff appearance of Arvidis Sabonis who was a part of that EXTREMELY TALENTED Portland Jailblazers team and I told him NOTHING IN ADVANCE. I just let him watch, because I knew he normally didn't watch the Trailblazers like that.
To see him start becoming UNCOMFORTABLE because of HOW BLATANT THE FIX WAS. Till he finally started wondering out loud "Yo? What the fuck?! Are they INTENTIONALLY CALLING CALLS ON PORTLAND SO THEY LOSE?" I didn't need for anyone to get caught "fixing games" after I watched the Shaq-&-Kobe Lakers get pushed and pushed and pushed against the Sacramento Kings where it was OBVIOUS that the White League Owners themselves had decided that PUSHING THE LAKERS OVER THE KINGS WAS BETTER FOR BUSINESS. Than letting the games be played based on all of the hard work that ALL OF THESE BLACK ATHLETES SPENT THEIR WHOLE LIVES WORKING TOWARDS. I simply got the message. Turned it off. And told everyone I knew that they should turn the NBA off because it is rigged by the owners themselves where they are wasting all of the hardships that these Black, MOSTLY POOR, athletes, had to go through for the chance to try to win a championship solely for the Whites who own the teams to sit down amongst themselves AND DECIDE WHO WASN'T GONNA GET A FAIR SHAKE, while making sure that THE WHITE OWNER WHOSE TEAM WAS ON THE OUTS...?
Still got a HEFTY AMOUNT OF PROFITS, plus whatever sidebar deals these DIRT-BAGS made using their actual, normal companies, where they "made their millions or billions or whatever". And that's another lie that comes out in the wash too many times too. Hard working multi-millionaires and billionaires where you find out they fucked-over and stole too much of it to give them their props as "honest businessmen-&-women". Contributing to thieves and people who create drama IN BUSINESS, because sports here and everywhere else that you find Whites in charge IS NEVER JUST SPORTS. It's BUSINESS. BIG. BUSINESS. And Whites are always quick to defend themselves from sharing any actual wealth and power with us as Blacks, a historical fact that we really need to stop fucking around with and making excuses for and be about the business of building our own revenue generating, revenue sharing venues, so I don't have to type up posts like this. This is one of my major long-term goals, creating large-scale Black-owned venues and businesses so that when people go to root for their team or root for their sport, it's about TALENT WINNING OUT, alongside of COACHING and GREAT ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURES. Not about tanking and bullshitting and trying to use reverse-REVERSE psychology to outsmart the system established in the sport. Instead of just doing your fuckin job and not leaving fans having to guess whether the latest hometown team move is about fuckin being the Gold Standard of Salary Caps, I'M TALKING TO YOU FUCKIN JEFFREY LURIE, CHIP KELLY AND THE SHITTY-ASS EAGLES!
Or about trying to turn a profit, while setting the team up so you can flip it again like the DIRT-BAG OWNERSHIP OF THE SIXERS! None of what I just typed should be an issue if Our Country was TRULY a country and not some violent mixture of Klingon-Ferengi gone wrong. I'm typing about it. But I've still got my eye on fixing it with my own hands. That's why getting my books out and making them worthy of actually being bought, is critical. Okay. That's it. I've entertained you guys enough. Have a good one!
LATER!
