Made JV as a freshman in high school. Was the star player. Was NBA bound. Mixtape had a million hits on YouTube. Then, disaster. Got cut from varsity the next year in favor of the coach’s son. Nepotism cost me an NBA career.
How does anyone find this shit funny
It’s not so much what OP wrote that’s funny, it’s the fact that someone this pathetic and desperate for attention exists that’s funny. It’s also kinda depressing. Actually it’s more depressing than funny.
Wait is OP not in on the joke?
Man, you nailed it, not the depressing part the funny part.
u/EatFoodShitPant You got owned lol
I’m not owned! I’m not owned!!
lmao, this is amusing. Anyway your shitty post was reported.
A lot of kids on this Subreddit. I know I thought some cringey shit was funny when I was a kid.
As a Pistons fan, I would happily swap you out for James “ni hao” Wiseman
No. Len Bias still is.
Meh. It’s a toss up
100%. Super-talented dudes that threw their NBA careers away for drugs, like Roy Tarpley and Richard Dumas, are a close second imo.
What if Zach Randolph was not suspended for Game 7 of the Grizzlies-Thunder first round matchup in 2014
there’s still hope if you link your mixtape
Can’t. YouTube deleted it because I used a copyrighted song (Basket Case by Green Day) and I forgot to save a backup.
Damn YouTube robbed the world of its eighth wonder
As stupid as the post was, this is a solidly funny reply.
Sure it wasn’t…… American Idiot? 😏
Peak r/nba shitpost - we’ve made it nephews!
Bless your heart
blud thinks hes on the team
Let’s just pretend everything you said is true.
Nepotism cost me an NBA career.
Nope. Persecution complex cost you an NBA career. You could have used that moment to motivate you to work harder. You could have walked-on for a college team and continued your path.
You are not in the NBA because you chose to focus on who else to blame instead of overcoming a hurdle.
95% of the players in the NBA had to overcome hurdles to get there. If any of them had instead focused on who to blame for their struggles, they too would not be in the NBA.
This is a hilarious reply because
- replying to this post in any type of serious way is an LOL
AND 2) acting like 95% of NBA players overcame massive odds to get there is such a hilarious thing to say. 95% of nba players are fucking GENETIC FREAKS where people knew they were league bound from a young age. You’re telling me the 6-8 guys who can run like a fucking gazelle “overcame massive odds” bruh, oooooookkkkkkk
David Thorpe actually talked ab this on a podcast recently.
there’s actually more people than you think that are tall as Kevin Durant, can dribble and shoot like him— and are not in the NBA.
none of them have the basketball mind that KD does however, that just comes from playing and experiencing a ton of basketball.
i remember another podcast talking ab how KD as a high schooler would come up early to shoot hoops before Team USA practiced, watch their practice from the bleachers, then continue shooting after they wrapped, doing like 12 hour days at the gym.
I’m gonna guess no one laughed at this. Back to the drawing board.
Why not tryout in Europe or something or g league
Idc what anyone says I’m keeping my EatFoodShitPant jersey forever.
The speedhawk of the NBA
Bro maybe you can sneak into the upcoming Harden Trade
Nah, I once checked in for 6 seconds to end the first half… hit a 3. Didn’t play again. That’s 960 points per 32 minute HS game.
