Rich Paul ask the world to put themselves in Bams shoes after he received criticism for scoring 83 points: “Let’s everyone put themselves in Bams shoes. A kid who grew up single mom, trailer park in North Carolina. Just trying to figure it out. This kid gets pretty good at basketball. Goes to Kentucky for one year. Gets drafted probably later than what he should’ve been but luckily for him falls to an unbelievable organization. The Miami Heat. Been to the finals twice. Been an All Star. Been a gold medalist. He’s done all this as a hard hat, lunch pail, steel toe boots type of player. This guy gets to shine one night on the offensive end. His mom is in the crowd, his lady A’ja is in the crowd. He gets to shine. One night, after he’s built this house, built this building. Why aren’t we happy for Bam Adebayo? Let’s celebrate it! This don’t diminish Kobe 81” (Via Game Over) Great message @RichPaul4 🫡

Rich Paul says you are ‘sick’ if you’re trying to discredit Bam scoring 83 points 👀 “I don’t understand the pushback I’m hearing. I got up this morning and hear all this yelling about why they are trying to discredit Bam… 83 points from a guy that’s not known as this type of scorer. Bam is a 25&12, 20&15 defense first. He doesn’t even look for that. He’s a team fist guy and will do whatever it takes to win. When a guy like that gets an opportunity to do what he did last night, for someone to have a problem with that, they’re sick. There’s a real issue here” (Via Game Over)

This applies to everything now. Music, film, TV, sports. The gravitas is gone. And it’s not because the talent is lesser. Media is fragmented, and so, we rarely have shared moments — which create that feeling. Instead, everyone just exists in their own algorithmic feed.

There’s an interesting case study to be had about nothing in sports feeling legendary anymore. I don’t think it’s a nostalgia thing at all, I think it’s the rise of social media and accessibility so we move on from everything immediately.

During Season 3 of The Wire , Robert Wisdom (Bunny Colvin) and Andre Royo (Bubbles) gathered the black actors together for this amazing picture. “We were just shooting the breeze one day and just marveling at the full array of talent that was coming together. This was the third year, and we came up with the idea to document this moment. At that point in television history, it hadn’t happened, and we figured it would probably be a long time before it happened again.” -Robert Wisdom (from the book #AllthePiecesMatter ) #BlackHistoryMonth

Love this.💞 It cannot be overstated how important Trevor Nelson is to Black British culture. His presence in the media landscape for the past 30 years is significant and he deserves to be praised. His stewardship of hip hop, soul and RnB on UK radio is appreciated.
