    Same. Losing in the CFs almost every year gets annoying, but you’ll take my Espresso Tonics from my cold dead hands.

    This did not make the story, but I asked Zion Williamson if he would be willing to give up Chick-Fil-A for a year in exchange for a 50 games played NBA season, and this was his response: “Hell no.”

    I have no problem with that. Do what you enjoy doing.

  5. lets_talk_basketball

    He doesn’t have the clutch killer will to win instinct genes.. We know that the guys who do would give up everything to win.. Bum

    Jimmy’s passion for coffee is cool as hell.

    Dude just seems like a super grounded time. There’s nothing celebrity about him

    This did not make the story, but I asked Dillon Brooks if he would be willing to give up hitting guys in the nuts for a year in exchange for an NBA title, and this was his response: “Hell no.”

    I mean yeah. coffee is really good

    also caffeine does improve physical performance

    Coffee slaps. And beyond just enjoying the drink, making it can be an important ritual to weirdos who wanna make it a thing. My morning coffee-making routine has been extremely helpful to me in establishing a diet routine when I needed to lose some weight and in getting into a good work groove.

    Damn, this might be the most relatable thing I’ve heard from him lol.

  14. RVAIsTheGreatest

    Well, you can’t say how he’s doing it now isn’t working…

  16. drblocktagon

    he would have said this regardless because he knows he wont win anyway

  17. EctoRiddler

    I feel ya Jimmy. I have tried to reduce my coffee drinking but I can’t. It’s an addiction.

    Miami is getting fed up with Jimmy’s anti-culture antics.

    [Nadkarni] This did not make the story, but I asked Karl-Anthony Towns if he would be willing to give up Call of Duty for a year in exchange for making the second round, and this was his response: “Hell no.”

    Jimmy doesn’t run from the grounds.

  22. Paper_Okami

    Coffee typically gives me nausea and makes me more tired.

  23. BigChinkyEyes

    Damn he wouldn’t even give up Mark Wahlberg either huh

  25. altiif

    This did not make the story but I asked James Dolan if he gave up playing with his band for a year in exchange for an NBA title and he said “hell no”

    Michael JEFFREY Jordan would give up water to win a championship.

  30. khornatee

    Do NOT talk to Jimmy till he’s had his morning coffee

  32. usernamesmen

    I would easily sacrifice drinking coffee for a year for my team to win.

    I have never had a cup of coffee in my life.

    [Nadkarni] This did not make the story, but I asked Miles Bridges if he would be willing to give up beating his spouse for a year in exchange for an NBA title, and this was his response :

    “Hell no.”

  34. Zighi_

    There is a reason this did not make the story.

  37. ALovelyAnxiety
