What a story. I thought it was worthy of a thread...

Ya you forget sometimes that sports makes life a little more bearable in some of these shit hole places. Nice story, particularly his not chasing the money or the championship via joining an already great team (ya talking about you lebron and you durant).

Well it makes a lot more sense in that he grew up there and a lifetime fan in comparison to Durant at least

Forgot about it, meant to watch yesterday, sucks that he has to leave thinking he was forced out. I think he still has a bit left not sure it would show for any other team at this point.
