My THOUGHTS on this @2chainz and Keith Lee interaction!
2 Chainz got into a DEBATE with Keith Lee after bringing up the BAD REVIEW Keith gave his restaurant, with Keith arguing that his reviews should reflect how REGULAR CUSTOMERS are treated, while 2 Chainz insisted celebrities EARN special treatment 😳👀
2 Chainz also questioned diet as a former athlete affects his TASTE in food and how he judges restaurants.
“I’m an entertainer, and obviously we get perks that other people don’t get. That’s just period, my boy. I don’t stand in line at the airport. I don’t do none of that because I done worked my ass off to do this.”

No way!
😬 CLIMÃO!
O New Orleans Pelicans deu 1 jogo de folga para Dejounte Murray ver o nascimento da sua filha.
Nesse jogo, o Pelicans venceu a 1ª partida na temporada.
Ontem vs Hawks, Dejounte estava presente no ginásio, aqueceu, mas o Pelicans decidiu dar MAIS UM dia de folga para cans venceu sua 2ª partida na temporada.
- NOLA com Murray titular: 0-4
- NOLA sem Murray no time: 2-0
O detalhe?
116 PONTOS A CADA 100 POSSES de rating ofensivo nesses 2 jogos, ou seja, sem Murray o Pelicans teve um ataque nível top-7 da NBA.
Segunda-feira as 22:00 tem Pelicans x Grizzlies… e o status de titular dele é incerto.
Tudo isso na mesma semana onde saiu rumores de que ele e o Pelicans vão procurar JUNTOS uma troca em breve…

Great question from the young fella. I like him. He's definitely going to be special.
Yaxel Lendeborg asked T-Mac, Vince, and Melo for advice on his game:
“Do you guys have any advice like, just for me in general just to try to keep going, things I got to work on, anything that you guys see that I don’t see?” 👏

Tell me this is not real?
COPS CALLED ON BLACK 3-YEAR-OLD: A family says they were kicked off a youth soccer field in Winter Park, Florida, because their toddler was "too good."
The parents say other adults complained he "has the ball for too long." Then police showed up.
On video, an officer tells them ys to head out." He gives no reason on camera and no one is arrested.
The mom says she watched a "huddle" of grown adults talking about her son. The dad: "They called the police on a 3-year-old."
He's 3. Should police ever be called over a toddler playing soccer?

In February of 2015, a coach in East Texas named Andy Evans lost his 18 year old son Scott in a car accident.
Evans is one of the great high school coaches in that part of the state. After he lost Scott he could barely function. He kept a sofa in his office, and he has said that and lie down on it.
Somebody asked him to come help out at Beckville for one year.
He stayed seven. Seven years in a town he had no particular reason to stay in.
There was a sixth grader there named J'Koby Williams. Evans took him under his wing, and the boy did not leave him alone with it.
Williams hugged him. Not once. Every single day, for years, he found Andy Evans and he hugged him and he told him he loved him.
Here is what Evans says about that now.
"That kid had a lot to do with saving my life, and that's why he's so special to me."
Evans is 60 now. He and Williams still talk all the time, and Williams calls him Paw-Paw.
Don Williams of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal is the one who found this and wrote it down.
Now understand who that sixth grader turned into.
Beckville is a 2A town of about 800 people near the Louisiana line. Williams finished high school there with 6,401 rushing yards and 98 touchdowns, which works out to 12.5 yards every time he carried the ball. He ran for 303 yards and four touchdowns in one playoff game. He scored 32 rushing touchdowns as a senior.
He also won three Texas state championships in the 110 meter hurdles, and five state titles overall.
He picked Texas Tech over Texas, LSU, Michigan, Baylor, TCU, SMU and Houston.
As a freshman he got his first start in the Liberty Bowl and ran for 123 yards. Last season he went for 787 yards, caught 30 passes, took a kickoff 99 yards against Oklahoma State and finished as a finalist for the award that goes to the most versatile player in college football.
He is not the whole offense. He has 538 yards this season and he splits carries, and Texas Tech is 6 and 0 because they spent an enormous amount of money rebuilding the defense, not because of him.
But he is on the field, at number eight in the country, playing at Cincinnati this weekend.
And here is the part worth sitting with.
Andy Evans did not get his son back. Nothing fixes that. What happened instead is that his older son Jaxon and a group of junior high kids in Beckville, Texas kept showing up, and one of them hugged him every day for years until the man could stand up again.
That kid carries the ball for the number eight team in the country.

Yaxel Lenderborg on his NBA debut and guarding Luka: "I got to see what the NBA is like, man. Lot of flopping, lot of foul baiting, lot of praying to the ref. Interesting first game for me... Being in there firsthand, just watching all the whining and complaining, I lost all "
Transcript of this soundbite:
"Yeah, it was interesting. I got to see what the NBA is like, man. Lot of flopping, lot of foul baiting, lot of praying to the ref. Interesting first game for me, for sure.
I had a lot of respect for him (Luka). You know, just watching. I didn't really watch the NBA much, I just watched highlights. Seeing him, you know, kill people all the time. But then being in there firsthand, just watching all the whining and complaining, I lost all respect, man. Like that was awful.
Like me getting frustrated, it's not about the foul being called, it's about him complaining the entire game. And then you get the foul call, congratulations bro. And then you talk to me like you did something great, bro? Come on, dog. That's just weak. It kinda threw me off for a little while, cause you know, like I said, I had so much respect for him. Gone man, gone.
I was telling him he sucks, he can't score on me. You talking and you can't score on me. I said it the whole game. I said a couple cuss words obviously, you know, that's why I got the technical and all that. But I was letting him know, because he was laughing and talking all this because of that one foul call.
His only bucket on me was a banker from half court. Like I know that it's a team sport. You know, he had 28pts on us as a team. Me, I took my matchup personally. Tried not to get caught on the fouls. Tried my best. I was thinking about playing him with my hands behind my back to see if that worked, probably would've still got a foul call."
