    Of course he's not the only one dealing with that, but you gotta kinda feel for the guy. He never knew his dad and seemed to be with PJ 24/7 in Chicago even though he wasn't together with his baby momma.

    People also gotta understand, he's never really left Chicago. Even in college, he was gone for a few months and went right back there. He got to see his son at least half the season, now it's probably a handful.

    Doesn't excuse what he did at all, I know he doesn't care about social media but that s--- spread like wild fire.

    I can't imagine what'd it be like to struggle with something like this because I'm a shade under 21 and don't have children. I feel for Rose, I really do. If you wanna go home and see your kid that you haven't seen for awhile (although I assume he saw him at some point during the holidays) at least let the PR people know so there's not some manhunt trying to figure out if you're safe.

    Have a feeling there's more to the story than this though.

    Yeah there's definitely something up/wrong. Any sane person doesn't do what he did unless there was reason.

    Hearing now that it was about his mom. PJ is in Punta Cana with his baby momma. A fan saw him on a flight and asked where he was going and said something was going on with his mom.

    IDK if it's been posted but at age 27

    Isaiah Thomas
    27.9 PPG, 6.1 APG, .455 FG%, .375 3pt%

    Allen Iverson
    27.6 PPG, 5.5 APG, .414 FG%, .277 3pt%

    So, obviously IT > AI

    @Soldier @Boos s--- it. You can't refute such facts (don't bring up the first 6 years of their careers though, cuz it ruins my argument, ok?)

    I have to :')

    I don't wanna play down IT's great season so far but you pretty much can skew any stats to make one player better than the other.

    The last 2 years before he lead the league both times with 31 ppg and had 3 season after 27 with Philly with 30+ ppg and 7+ ast. I'm not sure about FG% but with AI's team he had to take a lot of shots and a lot of tough ones.

    Ivo was also a good defender, IT is a liability on D unless he can hide on somebody.

    lol yea but AI was all alone. Dude carried that 01 team to a championship pretty much by himself. He had Eric Snow, Aaron McKie, and Mutombo.
