"That's Magic" - Larry realizes he might like this guy after all

Scribbled this comic a long time ago, decided to clean it up really quickly. Will draw the actual day they spent together *someday*. This is all largely words that Larry has actually said.

#larry bird #magic johnson #basketball #nba #there are all different kinds of love stories and i think this counts #you can hear the affection they have towards that day and each other when they talk about it #cannot wait until i eventually draw Magic telling Larry he's happy he can finally be Earvin with him

ur jimmy butler art made me interested in basketball… purely bc he looks cool as fuck i will become a basketballer fan

AGHH PLEASEEEE get into nba with me. When Im not fixating Im watching the season. Ive had a personal soft spot for jimmy for a minute cause he used to play for my fav team and was born in my hometown. Dudes funny as hell and a genuine and sweet person. He was homeless in high school and characterized by media/some nba fans as confrontational/cancerous early into his career due to his background and the fact that he's a genuinely incredible player. He made ecf mvp last year and is doing relatively well on the heat right now!! Theres a very good video essay about his life story and time in the nba that i could nottt rec enough if you want to learn more about him and his experience in the league.

He is such a star and it makes me really happy/emotional to see fob fans look more into him... even more so knowing that him and pete are boys like whattt.

#I WAS HOPING HED BE AT FOBPDX CAUSE HEAT PLAYED BLAZERS AT MODA THE NIGHT BEFORE but practice matters i guess #bro is always doing side quests ctfu #honestly dm me to talk nba its soo serious for me heheheh #ask #xoxo

context: rumors start circulating that midorima has a high chance to get selected in the nba draft so everybody starts talking abt his relationships w gom members who are already in the nba. leading to midorima making a clarification on twitter (he's clearly joking bc he loves them all)

#midorima shintaro #takao kazunari #knb #kurobas #kurokos basketball #takao in his replies: coworkers??? so u agree ur gonna get drafted like 100%?????? ur that confident??#knb nba au #and midorimas like um. yeah duh obviously...#and he does get selected so it all works oht #theyre so funny #midorima tries to put up thise facade that he toootally doesnt care abt them at all and theyre just some ppl he plays bball with #(the facade fails bc they r so much more and he knows that)#some ppl think hes being serious which is even more hilarious #the og context of this is SO funny to me #its jalen brunson talking abt two of his former college teammates #both of who r on the same team as him (ny knicks)#ill id this when i get homeee

i’m about to say something that’s prolly gonna be ~unpopular~ but i really don’t get what y’all are dunking on wright’s quote about having a chip on his shoulder

y’all talk big shit bout wanting hockey players to have a personality — yknow what comes with personality? being outspoken and saying you believe in yourself with your full chest. what was he supposed to say? ‘oh i’m sorry it’s on me i fell in the draft they’re right i Suck and deserve to go lower’

watch literally Any of the other pro team sports and this is how guys talk, bc basketball, baseball, football, & soccer? they don’t expect perfect fealty to their management overlords for the sake of a fake image of team solidarity, which ftr we know isn’t true bc how many of these teams have stood behind literal abusers but not stood up for their own players of color?

like sorry to once again talk about systems & structures of power but respectability politics & the demand to be ‘proper’ and ‘polite’ and ‘earn your respect’ — that stuff feeds into the culture of why the nhl has basically no actual players’ association, faulty medical rights, & minimal mobility for diversity and inclusion. demanding players to all fit into one mold of ‘the right way to talk’ is at best making the most boring sports personalities in the world and at worst making more disposable bodies for the nhl to churn out, bc a player that doesn’t question what the system is doing to them is a player than can be gotten rid of when they’re no longer valuable

#call me when y’all actually learn from how eichel & laine & kessel & subban were chewed up & spit out by their drafting orgs #no seriously. talk to me on level about how any of those players were handled then tell me why players need to be polite angels #the hysterics summa y’all would pull if one of these hockey children had half the mouth of your average nba baller #y’all’ed be complaining to your mothers of the scandal #*gasp* and then jimmy butler told joel embiid to shut up. how dare he!! in front of god and country????#aily talks #analysis #<- using that bc this is an ~opinion~
