Yeah. I can't understand why so many people tried to make it seem you are anti children if you don't think the kid should be at the table causing a ruckus when people are trying to do their job when they interview these players. I don't think my employer would appreciate it if I brought a kid to my presentation at work. It is unprofessional.
 
Game is far from over.

Two, i dont have a huge deal with kids coming to the PC's.

Big difference in being a pro athlete and working somewhere else.

I'm sure it happened innocently enough the first time. The kid wanted to see daddy after the game and mom stayed out of the locker room. When daddy had to do a quick interview there was nowhere for the kid to go. No problem once or twice a year. But now it seems like it's becoming a thing.

I get that. It's not a big deal and I personally don't care, but Steph's little girl was pretty wild at the press conference. I could see why reporters would be annoyed with that little girl effectively stealing Steph's attention away from answering their admittedly silly questions.

Well said. Everyone has been in the position where you have to take your kid with you. But, like you said, all these athletes seem to be going out of their way to parade their kids on national television. It's really weird.
 
Looks like an ACL.

Demarre resurrected his career here. But he's done in Atlanta. Last game for him as a Hawk.

Bringing your kid to a presentation is not a good comparison. If Steph brought his kid onto the court during game play, your example is closer. It was a post-game interview. Those things are just a small step above the in-game, halftime interviews. His kid was mostly just sitting there, sometimes said something that maybe made it slightly more difficult for poor mr. windhorst to hear. "uh, steph, uh, what was going thru your mind when you shot it???" "walk me thru the first two minutes of the first quarter." riveting stuff, really. reporters/media members can be such babies.
 
So Phil Jacksons start to his GM career has been brutal.

JR has been incredible for the Cavs while Shump has played a nice role. Chandler deal was a dumpster fire and the Melo signing is going to look awful in a couple of years.

He better get this pick right or the Knicks are going to suck for another 5 years.

Agreed 100%.
 
JR Smith was guarded plenty of those 3s he hit. Best game of the year from him?

We won't shoot that poorly all series, but we can't go down 0-2. Millsap was being picked on it seemed.
 
Carroll day to day, no structural damage.

Obviously Game 2 is a must win rregardless if he plays or not
 
Do you guys remember when Klay vs Harden was a debate on this thread?

Wouldn't be that much fun of an argument now a days.
