What would he be blackballed for? Not being good enough? That's just called forced retirement.

To be fair, he did a lot with his talent and has had a very successful life.

After watching PG have a full on mental breakdown in the playoffs, sounds about right.

What makes our constant, daily, civilian thoughts and opinions more qualified or appropriate than his?

If he was an accountant who never stepped foot on a NBA floor, would he be allowed to share opinions then?

This. It sounds silly to me and discounting his career is also a joke. Not really sure why he isn’t qualified speak on the game of basketball.

Isn’t this obvious though? He’s one that tries pretty hard to seem unbothered to the point where you can tell it’s a mask.

Lets ask all the posters mocking his career how many NBA all-star games they've played.

It must be a lot since they feel so comfortable talking ish here every day.

Didn't PG have bit of a feud with Dame after Lillard sent PG and the Clippers packing from the playoffs several years ago with that memorable series winning buzzer beater ?

Not a great look for Evan Turner to be criticizing a guy who is 100x the player he could dream of being. Turner was a huge bust. At worst he was a guy that should've made 1 or 2 all star teams, instead he was a journeyman who was a serviceable role player on a couple of teams.
