We would have an outpouring of media types calling him reckless and out of control and her classless and demanding that she take down her tweet and apologize to all of America. Instead, we are getting and endless procession of hacks saying that this is a champions fire burning hot and what leadership he's displaying in advance of a crucial game 7. Such hypocritical bull$h!t that passes for journalism these days. 


Its all about labels....Its not right but if life right Now, until we change it.
Melo with his corn rolls set the base for his perception as a hip hop mogul.
Steph came in as this baby face kid with no cultural links to hip hop, fashion or street cred. Thats too norm for the media. They like to focus on whoever goes against the norm.
Then add in NY swag which is something Melo has. As a new yorker who lived outside of NY, I've learned that we will always have haters just because nyers are different.
So its the good boy vs Bad boy scenario. Which means life is about perception over reality.
Manage how you are perceived is like taking the safe road through life. That's why I give credit to players or people not afraid to be different ...
