I grew up in SoCal in the early 2000s and I distinctly remember how fun the Clips were to watch. They were heavily overshadowed by the Lakers and no one really expected them to win. But they were entertaining.
This is a story that mostly focuses on the come up rather than the come down. It must have been a hell of a run to become a multimillionaire teenager and work out of LA, no less. The anecdotes with Alonzo, MJ, and Shaq are hilarious. I could totally see Shaq doing something like that. I hope Miles can parlay that history and access into something cool for his future.
There's an interesting point both of them make about social media; I'm not sure I believe it. I imagine it's just as fun and wild to be a teenage NBA player was it was in the early 2000s.
Props to Miles for speaking out about his depression. Kevin Love and I think Lowry have been open about their struggles. We're all human, NBA players or not.
