I'm afraid the problem is deeper than that.

****, I hope James Harden doesn't win the MVP.

Last year I was court side at a Blazers v Rockets. After the game the girl I was with wanted to go to a strip club. Hang out with her friends, get drunk, see naked girls, etc. after a while the bottom of the Rockets bench comes in. I was going to go talk to Aaron Brooks since I've been a fan of his because he played for Oregon.

But before an opportunity came up James Harden came in and sat at the table next to me with his posse. Like I could have reached over and touched him close. So I told him good game tonight and asked if I could take a shot with him. And he just blanked stared at me and turned away

They left like a half hour after getting their (not enough black girls at the club one of the posse told me) and before he leaves he asks the girl I'm with to come back to the hotel with him. Brag: she said no and stayed with me

So basically I hope he gets butthole cancer

Right now, I have zero available dollars and no internet. If I want to have internet on my laptop I have to stream it through my phone, which is really expensive. I was grinding a like 100 dollar roll through all of those tournament points, but went busto. I've grinded small rolls into big ones multiple times before, but I now have zero dollars to back me up and lots of bills. I don't make enough money at work to have any extra, and I've always been helpless against taking constant shots. It really sucks, because everything else is dumb and all I want to do is play poker forever.

?

That girl sounds like an absolute keeper, zomg, but I notice you wrote "girl that I was with", and not "girlfriend". Hell, I mighta gone back to the hotel with the team, and I'm a heterosexual male

I think if I were an NBA star I'd be real sick of random dudes coming up to me and wanting to chat or what-have-you, so him playing you like that is kinda whatever to me.

It's a legit cool story, though.

You shoulda showed him your braclet. Show him what a real champion looks like.

Yeah, I get that. It's not like I was trying to start a conversation and hangout with him or anything. I said good game cause they beat the **** out us. He just totally dead eyed poker faced looked at me for five awkward seconds and then turned away

Had he just totally ignored me it would have been less annoying

Different game, same girl, courtside again.

One of the Blazers spends the entire game looking over at her smiling and winking and ****, and eventually sends a ballboy over to give her his number. Dude, WTF?

Next summer I'm out at UNLV watching summer league games with dad. The player is having a monster game and my dad asks me why I'm not cheering for him. I laugh and loudly and drunkenly tell the story.

After the game a bunch of players were cool and came out to sign autographs and talk with the fans. Player in question comes out and walks in to the stands directly towards me. Sits down right in front of me and I find out the lady sitting in front of us is his fiance/wife.

so yeah, basically if you're hot and want to bang an NBA player I can probably make that happen

Harden is a major pos. You can tell from interviews that he is a total narcissistic scumbag. Story made me think of this:

yeah, known fact MJ is dick. some of the craps guys still talk **** about him 20 years latter here in vegas

Harden definitely sounds like a douche, but it's understandable that he blew you off. Who takes pictures in a strip club? I'm sure he doesn't want photos of himself with titties in the background floating around on the internet.

pretty sure shot implied alcohol not photography

Oh ****, lol totally misread that. Yeah he is a super dick.

Have it on reasonably good authority that ZOMG_RIGGED's plan always works with writers -- basically any writer will hang for the time it takes to drink the drink you bought them. Actually a bit surprised (if he was drinking) it failed with NBA guy. If you hit a writer and he says no to a drink, he's an imposter.

Who wants to drink with writers?

ASU guy for ya.

writer wannabes?

How often does a writer make it off with your girlfriend?

I got David Robinson's autograph as a kid, probably the nicest NBA player I ever met. Dirk Nowitzki probably was the second nicest.

Shawn Kemp was the biggest *** ever lol this might not be surprising to some. But yeah, I've heard some of these Jordan stories before. Never really liked Harden either. It basically comes down to thugs gonna thug imo.

any chance you can put cigarette money towards internet? or like coffee shops/mcd etc?

I thought we were going to be beard bros too

Met Steve Kerr after a game couple years ago. Said hi to him and he was super nice.

Met Ken Griffey as a kid and he was a real dick too. Spent hours in line to pay something stupid for it, and he wouldnt even look at the kids. Just kept talking to his bitches

who doesnt have a neighbor with unprotected wifi these days?

your mom

Ran into Adrian Broner (pro boxer) at mgm. I accidentally got in his way and he said he was gonna knock me out lol
