It took 15-20 FTA per game by DWhistle for the cHeat to get one ring. The refs were in rare form. They were your 8th men. 8>5 you know...

Sig bet: Y'all will not win it this year. :toast

[HarlemHeat37]

Snitching is bad enough, but on your own teammate?..disgusting..it's sad that we don't hear about it more often..

[chubster]

He's living proof that work ethic trumps everything else in life.

I live my life by that creed.

I don't like to judge my fellow man when I know that no one is perfect so I don't understand how being all sanctimonious by defaming Kobe Bryant make one a better person.

Maybe someone can shed a light on how to life their life being filled with HATE.

[SpursTillTheEnd]

How many did the Lakers shoot in the fourth quarter of game 7 against Boston? I forget....

[Giuseppe]

+ the Spurs have their own rapist now. And I want to see some equal opportunity snut busting on their proverbial asses.

And I mean it.

I'm satisfied that equal opportunity snut busting is going on for the quitters now that LeBron is taking his just desserts, and the others as well, but, we're a little tardy lettin' the Spurs off the hook-a-rooney concerning their rapist.

Savvy?

Man I am living the fucking life really...pussy pussy pussy....fun and sno-cones and sno-bunnies all weekend...

Luck_The_Fakers_Now let's talk about snitching, rape, and basketball...and the art of anal raping of NBA athletes..

I personally think in some cases snitching is ok as long as it's done with good intent and a good purpose. If you’re doing something I don’t like I will call you out and if that doesn’t work then I may snitch at my discretion. We all do it some just don’t want to admit it. For example my neighbor left his pup outside in the cold. I happen to think Dog’s are man’s best friend, so I went over and confronted him about it. He nutted up and said he was training it and I said I understood but that maybe he should invest in an insulated kennel and I would even buy him one if he needed it. He rolled his eyes which was cool but right after I left he took the pup inside and never brought it out again. In fact his wife later told me he sold the pup. Now is wife flirts with me all the time and even asked me to come over and take a look at her cable connection one day while he was away. I refused ( only because I don’t need a stalker that close to home) but could and still can easily fuck that nice Latina ass if I wanted to. But the point is that I would have called animal control if he left the pup out any longer. Some may call that snitching and if so I really wouldn’t give a fuck. He’s lucky I haven’t fucked his wanting wife yet.
It’s also all about intent, Kobe mentioned Shaq out of innocent fear and was having an off the record conversation with detectives who were secretly hiding mics in their jackets. Haters know this but refuse to tell the story in it’s proper context. He didn’t hold a press conference and sing like a canary. In fact I don’t call what he did snitching at all even though some consider it dry snitching. The reason being is that Kobe essential snitched on himself. He told cops: “ I have women in other cities too, just call Michele (his NY jump off) she will tell you.” So if he would spill the beans on himself to get out of a rape allegation then trying to run game on the cops to sound believable is ok by me. However, I think Kobe did learned a valuable lesson that night in why cops can’t be trusted. All of you talking that shit now would say any fucking thing to get out of facing 20-to life in prison. If you didn’t then you’re the stupid muthafucker…
In fact most non-Laker fans on this site are snitches as well and they know who they are. Any time they get butthurt over something Luva, Cully, or Koolaidman says they run to Kori and Tim and yet will call Kobe out in heartbeat.

Kobe is a rapist though and I've said this many times before. Kobe raped exactly 56 players this past post season if you add up all the play-off rounds.

Kobe a snitch --- Tou`che….:toast

Seriously, he has the genes of a former nba player. What hurdles did his work ethic have to over come? This is just a stupid statement about kobe work ethic.

Not riding the minimal success coattails of his dad's NBA career but charting his own trails, blazing his own path and creating a name for himself as arguably the best player to ever play the game.

Most kids of former athletes don't wind up being as successful because they've been spoon fed. It's usually the kids that grow up poor and don't have much and this pushes them to succeed. That's what makes Kobe such an anomaly. He's not from the hood, didn't have the average black experience growing up and yet he has the drive and desire as if he's been underprivileged and trying to rise above his personal situation his whole life. This is what drives most people crazy he's bright, speaks 5 languages, owns the Italian Basketball League, and dominants the NBA. He's not from the hood and most hood folks can't accept it. Now matter what he does because he doesn't have the hood descent they try ( but fail miserably) to invalidate him.

I used to tell haters all the time if you want to be like Allen Iverson you can but to get there you'll have to work as hard as Kobe.

[HarlemHeat37]

What does any of this have to do with the fact that he's a proven snitch?..

He told on Shaq, even though telling on Shaq wouldn't help his case in any way from a judicial standpoint..so he basically told on Shaq so that he could bring somebody else down for his own mistakes, which is absolutely fucking pathetic..it's sad that everybody now ignores all the evil Kobe has committed, simply because he won titles after the collusion..

Meanwhile, they've chosen Lebron as a target, because he chose to leave a team through Free Agency..compare that to everything Kobe has done:lol..

Nice...you're one dumb perception-less SOB. To think he told on Shaq to bring someone else down is not only irrational but it's simplistically juvenile. Let me give you the answer. I can tell like Kobe in Colorado you've never been in any kind of real life situation. So listen while I break it down for ya.

Kobe mentioned Shaq's name because he was simply feeding off what was popular at the time. Everyone knew of "ShaKobe" and Shaq was a "larger than life" personality back then so Kobe used that to his advantage. Kobe knew most NBA players cheated but he couldn't use Robert Horry or Rick Fox, or Derek Fisher to sound believable to the cops. He had to use a BIG name they could relate to or would immediaetly recognize and what better name than Shaq. Essentially he was telling the cops this is not unusual we "players' do this all the time and i should have done what Shaq does and pay them off. Again I have no problem with it and I understand the nature of it, it's just that in today's mass media and a cops nature to leak info it was bound to get out. But that doesn't take away from his sexual exploits on the court of which Wade, Bosh, and Lebron are all victims...:lmao

[HarlemHeat37]

Again, how does that change the fact that he actually mentioned Shaq's name and told them what he allegedly does?..the reasoning is irrelevant here(even though your reasoning is weak, as expected), he still did it..

He clearly tried to bring others down with him, which you clearly just admitted..

Also, stop talking like you know about these situations..you have a fucking inheritance..

Blazed his own path to the Nba, sound to me like he followed his fathers foot steps. Kobe was born super athletic and on top of that he was the son of a nba player. He was destine to make the nba and work ethic certainly helped him get there but no one should say "He's living proof that work ethic trumps everything else in life". That statement is simply idiotic when talking about kobe bryant. Now if we were talking about muggsy bogues it would be a perfectly fine statement to make.

Arguably-can be shown by arguement.
This statement can not be argued. No one knowledgeable nba fan would ever make this arguement. Therefore he is not arguably the best player to ever play the game. I would argue that tim duncan has been the greater nba player than kobe. I would not make the same arguement for tim over mj though.

Why? I don't know. Maybe they spend too much time lamenting at their own upbringing.

O, why couldn't I have hops like Lebron James?
O, why couldn't I grow as tall as Kareem?
O, why couldn't I be born as the son of a ball player?

hey idiot there a millions of people born with Size and Yet don't do shit with it. He wasn't born super athletic he worked on his skill and developed his talent.

Caron Butler has size, so does Lamar Odom, but it's a certain mindset that separates guys like Kobe, MJ, Magic, and Bird from people like Lebron, Wade, Dirk, and Duncan. It's called as Kobe put it - bullheadedness along with intestinal fortitude.

As far as Duncan and Kobe...I think that discussion is basically a wrap. Kobe has not only surpassed Tim but he also has greater upside than Tim. Kobe has trumped Duncan and laid him to rest. You're within your right to honor Duncan but no real expert outside of San Antonio will acknowldge Tim over Kobe. Kobe's peers have voted him the best, the NBA's GM's have and most importantly the NBA all time greats have. So what the fans of San Antonia think is irrelevant. Be my guest living in denial sometimes can be therapeutic:lmao...

[Koolaid_Man]

So what kind of snitching would offend your great mind then?..

Examples:



My latina neighbor telling her husband I anally fucked her after inviting me to her taco shell infested bedroom.



Jews giving up the location of other Jews to Hitler



Gloria telling Lebron that Delonte skeeted in her with a 2nd level cum shot

just to name a few .....

[HarlemHeat37]

You should support Kobe, he's the best player on your team, it's your right..I don't know why you have to defend that he's a snitch though, it's a fact..just accept it, say it was a bitch move, and go back to cheering for him..

I don't know why Koolaidman is writing essays trying to justify what Kobe did, wasting his time with his ridiculous arguments..

[Koolaid_Man]

Again, how does that change the fact that he actually mentioned Shaq's name and told them what he allegedly does?..the reasoning is irrelevant here(even though your reasoning is weak, as expected), he still did it..

He clearly tried to bring others down with him, which you clearly just admitted..

Also, stop talking like you know about these situations..you have a fucking inheritance..

inheritance has nothing to do with every real life situations...chics think they can get at me all the time and get hopelessly disappointed. But white chics usually don't trip too much not as much as "some" of the sistas trying to game Kool... I just want to party as much as I can in my youth...I understand not everyone can and people suffer. I donate at least 1200.00 a year to local charities, gave to Haiti crisis and even donated to Pakistan flood relief... and give some of my time. So what have you done?

and my pops won't give me all the money any ways till I'm 36. By then he says I will have all the play out of my system, would have experienced at least 1 serious failed relationship, and will know how to manage money. He "encourages" me to work at times as a learning, and to spend at least 1 week a year living with my grandparents gaining wisdom from their years. I'm ok with it all because I'm not lazy...and it enables me to live the life I want to live. But I do wonder how much my grandpa is worth...I can tell he's loaded. I'm sure I'm in his will...I bring him extra strong coffee just to make sure. :lmao

[JamStone]

Kobe seems like a prick of a person and him snitching on Shaq was a bitch move. That has nothing to do with anyone being a fan of Kobe, the player. I can appreciate what Kobe does on the basketball court and still think he's a bitch for how he ratted Shaq out to the cops. That's precisely how I feel. I've been a fan of crazy ass drag queen Dennis Rodman before. Being disgusted with Michael Jackson's fancy for little boys doesn't mean I can't listen to his music.

Some of you are too obsessed with players and can't separate players and their personal lives from the game. Someone being a Kobe fan doesn't mean they have to like Kobe the person or defend everything he's done in his life, or even have to defend everything he's done on the court. To me, fandom doesn't have to be "fanatic."

What a player does both on and off the court affects being a fan for many people. Doesn't mean one can't respect their game but to be a fan is another thing. Fan is short for fanatic but I see what you mean.

Lebron is a target because he a pathetic douche that has no balls and feels everyone owes him. And speaking of his balls, maybe you should stop gargling them and give em back.

I love how you take an incident where Kobe was in deep shit and scared, and talking to the cops not thinking it would be anything more than a off the cuff comment that he should have done what shaq did and avoided any post fling issues by just paying them up front, and make it like he was trying to bring Shaq down. It's simply the truth. Still, a stupid move because the cops document everything and it was going to come out.

And then you support a prima donna that:


No one could stand James as a 19-year-old in the 2004 Athens Olympics, nor the 2006 World Championships. Officials feared James could become the instigator of everything they wanted to rid themselves for the ’08 Olympics. For as gifted as James was, Krzyzewski and Colangelo subscribed to a belief that with Kobe Bryant(notes) joining the national team in 2007, they could win a gold medal in ’08 with or without LeBron James.Behind the scenes, officials had taken to calling James’ inner circle, “The Enablers.” No one ever told him to grow up. No one ever challenged him. And yet, James was still a powerful pull for his teammates, and everyone had to agree they could no longer let his bossy and belittling act go unchecked. These weren’t the Cleveland Cavaliers, and Team USA wasn’t beholden to him.

After the NBA witnessed the behavior of James and his business manager Maverick Carter during the 2007 All-Star Weekend, the commissioner’s office sent word to USA Basketball the league wouldn’t force James on them for the Olympics. Before Team USA gathered for the 2007 Tournament of the Americas in Las Vegas, an unmistakable message had been delivered to James through Nike: Unless you change, we’re serious about leaving you home.

“Legacies were on the line,” one league official said, “and they weren’t going to let LeBron [expletive] it up for everyone in China.”

.
.
.

Within an hour of the Cavaliers’ season ending in Boston, James’ inner circle, including power broker William Wesley, agent Leon Rose and business manager Maverick Carter, stood outside the visiting locker room grumbling about coach Mike Brown.


Former Cavs GM Danny Ferry (center) never wanted to fire coach Mike Brown, but owner Dan Gilbert (left) knew LeBron James and his business manager Maverick Carter (right) wanted Brown out as far back as 2009.

James had wanted Brown gone a year earlier after the Cavs lost in the Eastern Conference finals to the Orlando Magic – despite Brown guiding Cleveland to 66 victories while winning the league’s Coach of the Year award. Ferry debated Gilbert to keep Brown. He won out, but Ferry knew it would be tough to make that case again in 2010. Every decision the Cavaliers made had to be run past James. He didn’t always get to decide, but he had to be consulted.

This time, Gilbert believed he had to fire Brown to have a chance of re-signing James. When he was fired, Brown purposely left his star’s name out of a public statement of thanks. He knew James had led the movement for his dismissal for more than two years and Brown no longer needed to pretend that he liked, or respected James.

.
.
.

For James, the problem with back-to-back presentations was his short attention span. Cavaliers coaches had always tried to keep film sessions short because James would drift away and lose interest.

.
.
.

Back in Akron, James still wanted to go through his live hourlong television show on July 8 to announce his decision. This had been Maverick Carter’s big idea, his production, and still people around him worried about the fallout in Cleveland. Several friends told James this was a bad idea to do to his hometown, that leaving the Cavaliers live on national television would make this a public-relations disaster for him.

James didn’t seem to agree, didn’t think it made a difference. Mad was mad, he thought. He would take a beating, but it would subside and people would love him again in Cleveland.
.
.
.

Better than anyone, they knew LeBron James could sometimes be so unaware of the world outside his own needs, his own yes men. Nearly two years later, the whispers in the back of the bus rolling through Beijing had become the loudest statement in free-agency history

Did Boston NOT foul? We went inside to the PF beast (aka Pau Gasol) and he delivered over KG, Sheed, and Porkins if he would have played. Boston had to foul and they did. The refs called it.

Don't compare the Lakers to the front-running cHeat. We don't have someone that will put their head down, go to the hole and expect to be bailed out by the refs (does that describe the NBA manufactured "superstar" that is in your avatar? :toast).

BTW, were you a cHeat fan before LeHype signed on? :lol

Now that's got to hurt. Anyhow, how does one write off a gift? Can Shaq write that off as a family gift?:lol I hope Shaq has enough money in the bank, cause he might just go bankrupt!!!

Then again his NBA earnings has him at $290 mil. :wow Adding $300 mil from sponsors & commercials will take his total earnings to $600 mil.

Just hope Shaunie doesn't hurt shaq's deep pockets!!

After the NBA witnessed the behavior of James and his business manager Maverick Carter during the 2007 All-Star Weekend, the commissioner’s office sent word to USA Basketball the league wouldn’t force James on them for the Olympics. Before Team USA gathered for the 2007 Tournament of the Americas in Las Vegas, an unmistakable message had been delivered to James through Nike: Unless you change, we’re serious about leaving you home.

“Legacies were on the line,” one league official said, “and they weren’t going to let LeBron [expletive] it up for everyone in China.”

.
.
.

Within an hour of the Cavaliers’ season ending in Boston, James’ inner circle, including power broker William Wesley, agent Leon Rose and business manager Maverick Carter, stood outside the visiting locker room grumbling about coach Mike Brown.


Former Cavs GM Danny Ferry (center) never wanted to fire coach Mike Brown, but owner Dan Gilbert (left) knew LeBron James and his business manager Maverick Carter (right) wanted Brown out as far back as 2009.

James had wanted Brown gone a year earlier after the Cavs lost in the Eastern Conference finals to the Orlando Magic – despite Brown guiding Cleveland to 66 victories while winning the league’s Coach of the Year award. Ferry debated Gilbert to keep Brown. He won out, but Ferry knew it would be tough to make that case again in 2010. Every decision the Cavaliers made had to be run past James. He didn’t always get to decide, but he had to be consulted.

This time, Gilbert believed he had to fire Brown to have a chance of re-signing James. When he was fired, Brown purposely left his star’s name out of a public statement of thanks. He knew James had led the movement for his dismissal for more than two years and Brown no longer needed to pretend that he liked, or respected James.

.
.
.

For James, the problem with back-to-back presentations was his short attention span. Cavaliers coaches had always tried to keep film sessions short because James would drift away and lose interest.

.
.
.

Back in Akron, James still wanted to go through his live hourlong television show on July 8 to announce his decision. This had been Maverick Carter’s big idea, his production, and still people around him worried about the fallout in Cleveland. Several friends told James this was a bad idea to do to his hometown, that leaving the Cavaliers live on national television would make this a public-relations disaster for him.

James didn’t seem to agree, didn’t think it made a difference. Mad was mad, he thought. He would take a beating, but it would subside and people would love him again in Cleveland.

Better than anyone, they knew LeBron James could sometimes be so unaware of the world outside his own needs, his own yes men. Nearly two years later, the whispers in the back of the bus rolling through Beijing had become the loudest statement in free-agency history

Can you say hypocrite? :lol

I don't get it?..

:lol So you're comparing being a primadonna, which most athletes are, to snitching on a teammate for no reason in a criminal case?..nice argument, Gobby:lol..you're also using reports that have never been proven to be correct, and they come from sources through the shady media..

I've never called out Michael Jordan for being a primadonna..shit, I've never even called out Kobe for being one..all these guys have massive egos..even Lebron has a big ego, despite all his philanthropy and work with children..I don't see how it's even comparable to snitching on a teammate in a criminal case, not to mention publicly shitting on a teammate, which Kobe did with Bynum..

Lebron has never had any off-court incidents or problems with any teammates..he has always been a class act..sorry, Gob..

Classy...

No really its not... the gargling you do is anything but classy.




You learn not to "tattle-tale" on people when you're 5 years old:lol..being scared doesn't give you the right to snitch somebody out for no reason at all, let alone a fucking teammate....

Teammate? You mean the guy who has tossed more teamates and organizations under the buss than any other player alive today? Laughable. To "snitch" is to inform on someone to get them in trouble. He made an extremely stupid comment that in no way was intended to get Shaq in trouble with the law. You are stretching. Stupid comment and should have been left unsaid no dooubt, but your insinuation that he did it to get to Shaq is unfounded. Do you have a link that shows his intent?



Also, maybe if he didn't rape somebody, he wouldn't have been in that kind of trouble....

And here we go again. You have stated numerous times that he raped that slut in Colorado as if its a fact. It's simply your opinion and nothing more. You call Kobe out for telling the truth about Shaq and yet you have no problem spreading your negative opinions as fact. Apparenty you didnt learn that in your 5 year old morals and ethics workshop. You must have stopped after you got your "tattletale" medal. :lol




I don't get it?....

You don't get a lot.

I was there in 2004. I saw it first hand. And I am not comparing any particuar incident. I am comparing the persons and their reputation amoung thier peers.

So Kobe get's secretly recorded saying they should ship Bynum out becuse he wanted to play with hid buddy Jason and felt it would be best for the team and you have issues with that? Yet on the other hand you slobber all over a guy who quit on his team, his city, and his fans to go play with his buddies? Not to mention getting the coach who catered to his every whim fired?

Like I said, you dont get a lot. You really are the king of all hypocrites!! TBH..

[TinTin]

Gary Neal raped a drunk, defenseless girl with the help of his friend while she was puking in a bathroom sink. Of all the free, easy pussy at college parties, this San Antonio Spur needed to go rape one that was sloppy drunk. No diss, just real talk, how do yall support a rapist?

I suppose you can show me to the abundance of spurs fans who are chanting gary neal's name right now. If so, it wouldn't be any different than lakers circle jerking over caracter

Um..randomly saying, "I should have done what Shaq does" for absolutely no reason clearly tells you all you need to know..just accept that he did it and move on, there's no argument here..



You don't get a lot.

I get medals..





I was there in 2004. I saw it first hand. And I am not comparing any particuar incident. I am comparing the persons and their reputation amoung thier peers.

I don't believe that you were there, show me some proof, please..you know me, I need my facts for arguments..

:lol Secretly?..he was on camera saying it, he was staring right at the camera..that must have been some amazing espionage work by those random guys..

You're really making light of that situation, btw:lol..Kobe demanded that Bynum was traded, it was caught on tape, and he used explicit words.."Andrew Bynum?! what the fuck?!"..what a pathetic thing to say about a young player like Bynum, a guy that was new to the league and just trying to make it..

Lebron didn't quit on a city and fans..if you're talking about game 5, he had more FTA in that game than his overall playoff average, however, you're entitled to your opinion..if you're talking about his Free Agency decision, then he couldn't have possibly quit, he didn't have a team at the time of The Donation..

There's no reason to believe Lebron was the reason Mike Brown was fired..everybody predicted it would happen after the Cavs were eliminated, his firing was being called for a while prior to these rumors..

[cobbler]

I accepted it long ago. I also said it was a stupid comment. You are the one constantly bringing it up. You are the one OBSESSED. People in glass houses...





I get medals..
:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao






I don't believe that you were there, show me some proof, please..you know me, I need my facts for arguments..

I don't need to show any proof. I was there. I have been involved with USA basketball for over 20 years. You know... with that game I played that "wasn't real basketball" according to you.




:lol Secretly?..he was on camera saying it, he was staring right at the camera..that must have been some amazing espionage work by those random guys..

You have proof that he knew he was being filmed? You have proof that shows it wasnt a little cellphone camera and that he wasn't being decieved? It was not a public announcement and he NEVER demanded that Bynum be traded. Your so big on proof... show me!




You're really making light of that situation, btw:lol..Kobe demanded that Bynum was traded, it was caught on tape, and he used explicit words.."Andrew Bynum?! what the fuck?!"..what a pathetic thing to say about a young player like Bynum, a guy that was new to the league and just trying to make it..

Yeah... I can't imagine any veterans dissing rookies. Again, he NEVER demanded Bynum be traded.



Lebron didn't quit on a city and fans..if you're talking about game 5, he had more FTA in that game than his overall playoff average, however, you're entitled to your opinion..if you're talking about his Free Agency decision, then he couldn't have possibly quit, he didn't have a team at the time of The Donation..

He promised to bring a championship to Cleveland. He left before doing so. He quit. Plain and simple. And he did so in a way that has the majority of fans across the nation despising him.


There's no reason to believe Lebron was the reason Mike Brown was fired..everybody predicted it would happen after the Cavs were eliminated, his firing was being called for a while prior to these rumors..

Yes it was... and per the rumors and Gilberts anf Ferrys comments it was Lebrons camp doing the pushing. Now are you going to tell me that his camp was doing so without his insistence? Laughable...

Like I said, people like you have no problem propping up Mugsey freaking Bogues because he's a non-threat to either your agenda or your personal bias. Long live mediocrity, I guess.

After what Gary Payton said about Kobe's work ethic, I suppose I should take your word when you say that it's nothing special because he's 6-6, athletic and a son of a ball player? Not a chance, buddy.

Since reverse logic has worked so well for idiots like you let's talk about Tim Duncan's work ethic.
Does he have an amazing work ethic for being the most fundamentally sound big man (2nd only to Olajuwon) or is it something that we can dismiss because he's been blessed with a 7 feet body and tremendous wing span?

Mugsey Bogues's work ethic > Tim Duncan's and Kobe Bryant's work ethic.

Hah! The length you haters will go just to minimize Kobe Bryant's accomplishment never cease to astonish me.

[Ace]

I
Did Boston NOT foul? We went inside to the PF beast (aka Pau Gasol) and he delivered over KG, Sheed, and Porkins if he would have played. Boston had to foul and they did. The refs called it.

Don't compare the Lakers to the front-running cHeat. We don't have someone that will put their head down, go to the hole and expect to be bailed out by the refs (does that describe the NBA manufactured "superstar" that is in your avatar? :toast).

BTW, were you a cHeat fan before LeHype signed on? :lol

Stop reading after pf beast. Now I know your a butthurt Mav troll.

[Daddy_Of_All_Trolls]

I get medals..



Gee, we didn't know. Tell us again! Oh, wait, that's all you do, tell us you have a medal. We know. You probably deserved it. Damn you're insecure. That medal won't bail you out of the mess you've made for yourself riding LeBron's jock.

You get Medals. Kobe gets rings. I know that hurts. 5 > 0 bitch!

[TheMACHINE]

lol insecure laker haters....all good cuz they just watch us rang 2 in a row. buahahah must suck to be them.

You should support Kobe, he's the best player on your team, it's your right..


I missed this little jem...

And yet all we heard from you all last year is how Pau was the the best player on the team.

So you can now add inconsistent to your other traits that include racist, liar, and obsessed with everything Lakers and Kobe. TBH
