The \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/blavity-original/nba-new-face-of-the-league\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NBA\u003C/a> trade deadline just passed. Not to mention, we’re fresh off the heels of a Super Bowl molly whopping of Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs. With NBA All-Star Weekend on the horizon, we look ahead to seeing how players on new teams will begin to gel. After all, we may have just witnessed the most consequential NBA trade deadline ever. That’s because I believe that the trade the Mavericks made, sending Luka Doncic to the Lakers effectively ended the “player empowerment era.” I can’t say that I saw this coming, but I do think you can blame the players for such shrewd movement by front offices.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Back in 2010, LeBron James changed the way players would leverage their free agency opportunities. In 1976, Oscar Robertson advocated for free agency for players in the NBA. He won his case, which allowed players to have freedom of choice as to what team they would play for once their contract was up. What James did was use that opportunity to put a spotlight on joining other superstar-level players. His signing with the Miami Heat, joining Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, showed other players how they could go about becoming their own General Manager.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>With that example, we began to see teams seek to create their own “super teams” with three superstar players on one roster. It resulted in Carmelo Anthony joining Amare Stoudemire in New York. It eventually led to Kevin Durant choosing to sign with the Golden State Warriors, who eliminated him from the playoffs in the previous season. Stockpiling superstar talent for almost a decade seemed to be the recipe for success in the NBA. That’s until players wanted to get paid to their max again. But for a time, sacrificing money for the opportunity to tangibly compete for a championship was appealing.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The latitude of this era since 2010 gave players sort of held organizations (teams) at bay. Players understanding that it’s their talents that have led to the NBA product being what it grew to be is at the foundation of all of this. Loyalty to one team or another began to wane, as teams also made decisions with players that were best for their business. The transactional nature of this business can be seen in cases like John Wall, Kyrie Irving, or more recently, Jimmy Butler. Players forcing their way out of contracts were becoming all too normal. That’s until the Dallas Mavericks put the kibosh on all that.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\u003Ciframe title=\"HIGHLIGHTS from Luka Doncic's LAKERS DEBUT 🔥 | NBA on ESPN\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/CPVZTC0qATE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/div>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The trade of Doncic to the Lakers for Anthony Davis is the biggest trade in NBA history. And it has the potential to spark another dynasty level of success for the Lakers franchise. What has made this such a special transaction? For starters, Doncic hasn’t reached his prime, yet has exhibited superstar production in his young career. The city of Dallas is in an uproar because they believe they got the short end of the stick.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The truth of the matter is that Doncic was traded for Davis, a superstar, and champion in his own right. However, he is several years Doncic’s senior and has mostly been injury-prone his whole career. Those worst fears were realized earlier this week when Davis went down again with an abductor strain.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\u003Ciframe title=\"Anthony Davis INJURED!

He wasn’t dedicated enough to be in top condition every season. And when you add his looming super-max extension that was to come this summer, the team questioned whether or not it was the right investment. So without the counsel of the superstar, the team made the move to trade him. This exhibited a team no longer cowering to the demands of a player.

She claimed Burruss paid Tucker an allowance when he expressed grievances over the lawyer-turned-reality-star not paying him adequately for his work on her infamous “Donkey Booty” workout DVD. Burruss’ mother, Mama Joyce, said Parks was being fraudulent. For the most part, Burruss stayed quiet until a tense sit-down with Parks, where she accused her of lying about feeling abandoned in their friendship and putting on a farce about Nida when she was dating a new man all along.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Williams inserted herself into the argument, and in one of the craziest scenes in RHOA history, she argued with Burruss and alleged Burruss had a sex dungeon, that she and Tucker planned to drug and sexually assault her, that Tucker was unfaithful and went by the alias of “Marvin,” and that Burruss was a lesbian. At the Season 9 reunion taping, Williams revealed Parks was behind all the rumors she brought to the forefront. Parks sat quietly as her co-stars and Andy Cohen expressed shock and disdain. She claimed she’d “repeated” something she heard on camera. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Parks exited the show, as King would go on to leave the series. For years, internet rumors have alleged that King had a hand in all of the drama, and some believe that his exit from the show after Season 9 was not coincidental. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>However, he has consistently denied a role in the drama, and has stated that he left the show on his own accord. He dismissed the rumors in a\u003Ca href=\"https://urbanbellemag.com/2020/04/28/former-rhoa-producer-carlos-king-addresses-long-running-rumor-about-phaedra-parks/2/\"> chat with \u003Cem>Married to Medicine\u003C/em>’s Dr. Heavenly Kimes in 2020\u003C/a>. He broke his silence on the ordeal, saying: “I left the show. I did not get fired. That will always be the dumbest rumor when it comes to that. And it’s funny because when you Google anything, I’ve been fired so many times it’s like I was on \u003Cem>The Apprentice\u003C/em>. It’s the dumbest rumor out there. I did not get fired. And the other thing about the whole situation that happened Season 9, I had nothing to do with that. Let me make that very clear. If that was the case, I wouldn’t be here today. I’d be in jail so let’s start there. And that’s all I’ll say about that.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>In \u003Ca href=\"https://pagesix.com/2022/04/06/producer-carlos-king-shares-rhoa-secrets/\">2022 interview with Page Six\u003C/a>, he got candid about being a \u003Cem>RHOA \u003C/em>producer during the Parks-Williams-Burruss drama. He said, “To see this rumor circulate during Season 9 without any sort of hard facts was very weird as well because we kept asking ourselves as producers, ‘Where is this going?’ … We had no idea where it came from. But because it was reality, we followed it. And to see how it all culminated at the reunion was just very uncomfortable to say the least.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-his-relationship-with-kandi-burruss-and-xscape-biopic-development\">\u003Cstrong>His relationship with Kandi Burruss and Xscape biopic development \u003C/strong>\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Initially, Burruss and King’s relationship seemed unaffected by the Season 9 \u003Cem>RHOA \u003C/em>drama. It was later revealed that Burruss ended her personal and professional working relationship with King after she alleged she had discovered he purchased the rights to an Xscape biopic, without her or her group members’ knowledge or consent.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https://theshaderoom.com/kandi-burruss-alleges-that-former-rhoa-producer-carlos-king-stole-the-life-rights-for-xscape/\">In a 2023 interview with The Shade Room\u003C/a>, Burruss detailed how she learned of what allegedly happened. She said:\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“A friend of mine is a producer or director, me and [my husband] Todd were talking to him, and I said, ‘It would be dope if Xscape had a movie about our lives.’ And our friend was like, ‘Oh, they’re already doing that movie.’ We were like, ‘What you mean? Who’s already doing the movie?’ And he was like, ‘Yeah, I just took a meeting about that.’ He told me the network or whatever, so I called my agent, and I asked what was going on. He looked into it and found out that it was true that the network was doing it. It took us a couple more weeks to find out who had put it all together. Come to find out, it was Carlos who was supposed to be a producer, director, or whatever of the movie. Right before I found out it was him, one of his producers that he works with reached out to my mom and was like, ‘Oh yeah, we’re trying to do a documentary about girl groups and we wanted to get some information…’ to interview my mom. So you’re going to do all of that, and you don’t even tell me?” \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https://x.com/kandiburrussFP/status/1651958923602042880\">King has opted to stay silent\u003C/a> on specifics of the matter and would rather talk with her about it.

After her exit from the show, she says she fostered a relationship with King and began thinking of ways they could work together.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>But this year, she alleged that King (without using his name) reeled her in using “the Black card,” noting that he’d handle her with more care than Bravo due to being kinfolk, but she was dissatisfied with her edit in Season 1 of OWN’s \u003Cem>Love & Marriage: D.C.\u003C/em> She claimed she was used for promotion of the show. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“I believed him when he used the Black card. And he did me worse than the white folks. I was like, ‘He could have at least waited till the second season to trash me,’” she said during an \u003Ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_O0E9PNCoAQ\">interview on The Jay Hill Podcast\u003C/a>. “It was just like, ‘We got her. Dog her a** out.’” It was like my name was used to gain the audience and I felt like I got trashed on that show. They didn’t show any of my real moments where I gave more context to what was happening.” \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>She’s since vowed to never do reality television again.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-king-s-relationship-with-melody-rodgers-from-love-amp-marriage-huntsville\">King’s relationship with Melody Rodgers from ‘Love & Marriage: Huntsville’\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Whether you are a fan or not, Melody Shari Rodgers is the bonafide star of \u003Cem>Love & Marriage: Huntsville\u003C/em>. Without her, some fans would say the show doesn’t stand a chance. But the way things seem to look between her and King right now, the show may be undergoing a massive change sooner rather than later. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>King and Rodgers were initially two peas in a pod. But things took a turn when she appeared on a live edition of his podcast. No matter what Holt has allegedly done, \u003Ca href=\"https://urbanbellemag.com/2023/01/19/carlos-king-is-called-out-by-lamh-fans-over-comments-about-melody-shari-martell-holt/\">King has stated publicly his affinity for Holt\u003C/a> and pushed the idea of a reconciliation between the two. King has maintained that Holt will not be fired because he, along with Rodgers, helped bring the show together while they were married.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Recently, Shari and King’s social media revealed they no longer follow one another. This comes after \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/entertainment/love-marriage-huntsville-are-melody-and-carlos-king-follow\">she made comments on social media\u003C/a> that fans believe were direct shots at King.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“When you are in a leadership position or so-called leadership position or executive position, there are just certain things you’re supposed to do,” Shari said on a livestream. “You don’t talk about the people that are putting a check in your pocket. I’ve never seen the owner of Seventh Avenue talk about the people putting money in their pockets.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Shari also criticized behaviors she characterized as “self-destructive,” adding, “That’s all they know is self-destruction.” Later, she defended her remarks in an Instagram Story, doubling down on her earlier statements. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-belle-collective-exits-of-aikisha-colon-and-sogucci-williams\">\u003Cstrong>‘Belle Collective’ exits of Aikisha Colon and SoGucci Williams\u003C/strong>\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Another popular series from King’s production company is OWN’s \u003Cem>Belle Collective\u003C/em>. The end of this season saw the exits of two cast members, Aikisha Colon and Sophia “SoGucci” Williams. Colon quit the show during a YouTube livestream, leaving him and his two co-hosts of the night with their mouths ajar.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The season saw the family drama with Williamses following an explosive fight between SoGucci and her husband’s ex-wife, Selena. The family was estranged due to her stepdaughters having no contact with their father. At the reunion, King blasted SoGucci’s husband, JJ, for not properly handling the situation between the two women from the start, which all agreed with. But his handling of the Colons is what sparked backlash.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Aikisha was never welcomed with open arms by the other Belles. Both she and her husband were accused of thinking they were bigger fish because of their lifestyle. Things reached a breaking point in the season finale after the men came to a brawl. Some viewers criticized King’s handling of the reunion, feeling he unfairly blamed Willie for tensions that had built up over seasons.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-his-youtube-show-has-also-caused-controversy\">\u003Cstrong>His YouTube show has also caused controversy\u003C/strong>\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>King’s podcast and weekly recaps are only adding more fuel to the fire. In addition to interviews with reality stars, he recaps his shows and others with guest hosts, which many feel is a step too far as an entertainment executive. As his presence grows publicly, many are pushing for him to make a choice: be a public figure or an executive producer. For some, both roles cannot exist at the same time…or at least in the way that he’s been doing it recently.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Carlos King’s influence on reality TV is undeniable. But as more stars speak out, the question remains: Is he uplifting the people he works with, or prioritizing ratings at their expense? Only time will tell how King’s legacy will be shaped by these ongoing controversies and conversations. \u003C/p>\n",[433,434,435],{"name":26,"slug":27,"id":28},{"name":313,"slug":314,"id":315},{"name":30,"slug":31,"id":32},[437,440],{"id":438,"name":439,"slug":439,"description":17,"image":17},43692,"reality",{"id":254,"name":255,"slug":256,"description":17,"image":17},{"url":442,"thumbnail":443,"credit":444,"title":445,"alt":446,"type":52},"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/GettyImages-1485673908.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/GettyImages-1485673908-150x100.jpg","Photo by Paras Griffin/Getty Images","The Quintessential Gentleman MOCTales With Carlos King & Martell Holt","Martell Holt and Carlos King","2025-01-25T20:04:55-05:00","2025-02-15T18:08:29-05:00",[],{"disableAd":57,"disableConnatixPlayer":57,"enabledComments":57,"headScript":17},{"id":452,"author":453,"authors":454,"title":456,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":457,"body":458,"categories":459,"tags":463,"featuredMedia":474,"publishedAt":480,"updatedAt":481,"type":55,"listicle":482,"disableContentGate":57,"isDisabledListicleNumbers":57,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":17,"additional":483},72814285,{"id":9,"avatar":10,"firstName":11,"lastName":12,"displayName":13,"email":14,"username":15,"normalizedUsername":15,"description":16,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":18},[455],{"id":9,"avatar":10,"firstName":11,"lastName":12,"displayName":13,"email":14,"username":15,"normalizedUsername":15,"description":16,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":18},"'Southern Hospitality' Newbies Michols Peña And Lake Rucker On Bombshell Season's Drama, Being Vulnerable On TV And More","southern-hospitality-michols-lake","\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/entertainment/southern-hospitality-season-3-bravo-bradley\">Season 3 of Bravo’s \u003Cem>Southern Hospitality\u003C/em>\u003C/a> introduces two vibrant new cast members, Michols Peña and Lake Rucker. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Though the two have been working at Charleston’s Republic Garden and Lounge as well as being a part of this friend group, they are officially a part of the show this season and are making a splash.

And so I got a lot of good feedback. I would say it was very positive. A lot of people were like, ‘Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so sorry about your strained relationship with your parents and your family.’ I had a lot of queer, LGBTQ+ people in our community just reach out. I even had somebody from Charlotte. She was like, ‘Oh, I’m a trans woman. I live in Charlotte. Your story made me feel so seen. Thank you for sharing that.’ And it was really nice because I almost had tears in my eyes. I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, that makes me feel 10 times better about sharing my story.'”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>For Peña, the choice to be open and authentic felt necessary. “I just think that it’s so important to share that part of my life.

But yeah, I think that it was a necessary conversation, and it put us in a way better place and honestly, couldn’t have asked for that conversation to not happen.

I made some great friends along the way, and I already had Michols as my friend and Brad. And so it just felt like we were doing our day-to-day lives, it was just being filmed.

I think that we’re two very successful people trying to find our way very young. So we don’t need to be able to settle down or do anything crazy along those lines, but I think that we developed a great friendship over the summer. Friends can kiss.

He explained, “[With] the conversation at the lake, it was definitely hard for me to have just because I’m not that big of a confrontational person. At least I come off that way in some instances. Michols at work and Michols your friend are two completely different people. That’s just the Gemini in me. So I don’t know…It’s kind of hard. I’ll own it [laughs]. I don’t care. I can be your best friend, but I can also be your worst nightmare. So it depends on how you want to take it.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He emphasized his efforts to keep the peace, saying, “I feel like going into that conversation with Emmy, it was just very much tiptoeing around the conversation, trying to be comforting and just using the proper words to guide that conversation to make sure that it wasn’t a mental breakdown happening or tears or one other blowout like we had at work. I didn’t want any of that going on, especially because it’s our first trip into the season. We’re all just trying to have fun, and I just wanted to clear the air so that by the time we got down to more celebration at Lake’s house, the air was cleared and nobody had to worry about putting out any fires. Obviously, as you see, it didn’t end up going that way.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Rucker echoed Peña’s frustrations. “There is a time and place to have a crash out, and she chose the wrong time and places to have her crash outs. She had a crash out at work and a crash out at my house. From my opinion, I found it disrespectful both ways, but people handle situations differently. I handle those situations differently. I’m not going to show out at work and I’m not going to show out at somebody else’s house that they invited me to, but that’s just me.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">\u003Cimg decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/NUP_205233_00407.jpg\" alt=\"SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY -- Pictured: (l-r) Joe Bradley, Lake Rucker, Maddie Reese\" class=\"wp-image-72814312\" srcset=\"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/NUP_205233_00407.jpg 1000w, https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/NUP_205233_00407-300x200.jpg 300w, https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/NUP_205233_00407-150x100.jpg 150w, https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/NUP_205233_00407-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" />\u003Cfigcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by: Paul Cheney/Bravo\u003C/figcaption>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-clarifying-the-store-credit-controversy-with-emmy\">Clarifying the store credit controversy with Emmy \u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>A key point of tension this season involved confusion surrounding allegations that Sharrett may have used her store credit to buy outfits for the women at Republic that they needed. Some fans were confused about the issue at hand.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Rucker explained, “I think Siobhan went to this situation like, ‘Oh, here’s what I heard. Emmy, I know that you’re buying these dresses but it also happens to be where she gets store credit at. And so we’re just wondering if you’re using the store credit to buy those dresses or your credit card?’ When she should be using her credit card to buy them because the girls are Venmo-ing her.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Peña added, “I just think that the girls, they were under the impression that Emmy was just using her store credit to purchase the dresses. It didn’t end up being that way. I think that it was just an assumption just because she’s a brand ambassador for them. So you would think, ‘Oh, maybe the brand is sending them to her for free. I wonder if she’s profiting off of us and having her send the money.’ Which is how Siobhan approached the situation, which is what she thought was going on.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“And everything travels around Republic very, very quickly,” said Rucker. “I think that when it got to Emmy, it was just the biggest fabricated part of it.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“It’s like the game of telephone,” added Peña. “I’ll go and tell Lake, “Oh my gosh, I love her outfit.” And then by the time it gets to Maddie and Joe, “I f*****g hate her outfit. She’s the ugliest person in the world. So there’s somewhere in the mix where it twists and turns, but yeah, that’s just how it goes in our group.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reliving-their-first-season-of-reality-tv\">Reliving their first season of reality TV\u003C/h2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Both Peña and Rucker reflected on the surreal experience of seeing their lives unfold on screen. Rucker described it as “almost like we’re reliving the experience in a way, but we can… I look back at it and I’m like, ‘I don’t remember so much.’ I’m like, ‘I don’t remember saying that at all.’ And so I get a little nervous, and so I try to watch it like it’s an out-of-body experience, it’s not me, and I’m like, ‘I’m not watching myself.’”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Peña shared similar sentiments. “For me, when I watch it, it’s more so like I don’t know who that person is. I am watching these random people and they’re just paid actors. I don’t know. It’s the weirdest thing ever, and it’s also like, ‘That’s not my friend.’ And then also to see the scenes that you didn’t know about or that were being filmed and you didn’t get to see is so weird because it’s like, ‘Whoa, I didn’t even know that happened,’ or, ‘I didn’t know this conversation was had,’ or any of the flashbacks.

The self-proclaimed “Greatest Woman Of All-Time” has backed up her moniker without zero doubt. I first learned of Shields because of a verbal back-and-forth that came about with boxing legend \u003Ca href=\"https://www.dazn.com/en-US/news/boxing/claressa-shields-blasts-laila-ali-muhammad-ali-daughter-10-million-fight/1ifn8pibmoim816pt9g2tne6ic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Laila Ali\u003C/a> back in 2012. The ever-so-confident Laila Ali seemed reluctant to concede the thrown in her sport. It’s understandable, and I think that dynamic exists in all sports. But at this point, what Shields is doing in this current competitive landscape is impressive. She is a symbol of excellence.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>So with her success, becoming the only woman to be an undisputed champion in three different weight classes, she has been doing more press than ever. That led to me coming across an interview of hers from the past on Instagram. In this conversation, the 2012 Olympic gold medalist talked about being overlooked during that year’s games. At 17, Shields had won a gold medal in boxing, yet she didn’t feel as heralded. She cited not being considered for the \u003Ca href=\"https://stanton-company.com/2012/11/27/olympic-champions-gabby-douglas-carmelita-jeter-sanya-richards-ross-allyson-felix-cover-essence-magazine/?sfw=pass1739581772\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Essence\u003C/a> cover that highlighted the likes of Allyson Felix and Gaby Douglas that same year.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\u003Ciframe title=\"Why Claressa Shields Almost Tossed Her Olympic Gold Into a Michigan River 😮\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/CQDL_z1yLlk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/div>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>It’s that feeling of being overlooked that I believe has helped fuel the 29-year-old’s fire and determination. Although in recent months, much of the coverage surrounding Shields is in reference to her budding relationship with rapper Papoose. The undisputed champion is clearly not letting that attention get to her head. With her only loss coming during her amateur career, Shields boasts a 16-0 professional record as of this writing.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\">\u003Cimg decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2164489910.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72819973\" style=\"width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2164489910.jpg 1024w, https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2164489910-300x200.jpg 300w, https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2164489910-150x100.jpg 150w, https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2164489910-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" />\u003Cfigcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Terrell Groggins/Getty Images\u003C/figcaption>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The Michigan native has done nothing but continue to ascend since her time in the Olympics 13 years ago. There’s an irony that the majority of the women on that cover are now retired. That’s no fault of their own. It’s mostly by virtue of age. So maybe time is on Shields’ side. But the fact that she competes in the more vicious sport and continues to bring it more notoriety is amazing. To have never felt a defeat professionally up until this point is reason to be celebrated as well.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>How we react to not being considered in life can make all of the difference. Shields is someone who did go and get it out the mud. As a sexual assault survivor and making it out of an impoverished upbringing in Flint, Michigan, she has won in the most miraculous of ways. It’s clear her snub on that cover was a pivotal moment for her. It can seem that it was the proverbial tenet of turning a negative into a positive. But clearly, that tenet is undefeated. It serves as a great reminder to not always be prisoners of negative moments, because look what opulence can lay on the other side of them.\u003C/p>\n",[702,703,704],{"name":200,"slug":201,"id":202},{"name":313,"slug":314,"id":315},{"name":317,"slug":318,"id":319},[706,707,711,715],{"id":326,"name":327,"slug":328,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":708,"name":709,"slug":710,"description":17,"image":17},27418,"Boxing","boxing",{"id":712,"name":713,"slug":714,"description":17,"image":17},59092,"Claressa \"T-Rex\" Shields","claressa-t-rex-shields",{"id":716,"name":717,"slug":718,"description":17,"image":17},8053,"Claressa-Shields","claressa-shields",{"url":720,"thumbnail":721,"credit":722,"title":723,"alt":723,"type":52},"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2196840200-Cropped.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2196840200-Cropped-150x94.jpg","Photo: Nic Antaya/Getty Images","Claressa Shields","2025-02-21T08:41:33-05:00","2025-02-21T09:07:15-05:00",[],{"disableAd":57,"disableConnatixPlayer":57,"enabledComments":57,"headScript":17},{"id":296,"author":729,"authors":730,"title":307,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":308,"body":309,"categories":732,"tags":736,"featuredMedia":742,"publishedAt":343,"updatedAt":344,"type":345,"listicle":743,"disableContentGate":57,"isDisabledListicleNumbers":57,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":339,"additional":744},{"id":298,"avatar":299,"firstName":17,"lastName":17,"displayName":300,"email":301,"username":302,"normalizedUsername":303,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":304},[731],{"id":298,"avatar":299,"firstName":17,"lastName":17,"displayName":300,"email":301,"username":302,"normalizedUsername":303,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":304},[733,734,735],{"name":200,"slug":201,"id":202},{"name":313,"slug":314,"id":315},{"name":317,"slug":318,"id":319},[737,738,739,740,741],{"id":322,"name":323,"slug":324,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":326,"name":327,"slug":328,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":330,"name":331,"slug":332,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":334,"name":335,"slug":336,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":254,"name":255,"slug":256,"description":17,"image":17},{"url":339,"thumbnail":340,"credit":341,"title":342,"alt":17,"type":52},[],{"disableAd":57,"disableConnatixPlayer":57,"enabledComments":57,"headScript":17},{"id":746,"author":747,"authors":748,"title":750,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":751,"body":752,"categories":753,"tags":756,"featuredMedia":770,"publishedAt":774,"updatedAt":775,"type":345,"listicle":776,"disableContentGate":57,"isDisabledListicleNumbers":57,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":771,"additional":777},72817205,{"id":298,"avatar":299,"firstName":17,"lastName":17,"displayName":300,"email":301,"username":302,"normalizedUsername":303,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":304},[749],{"id":298,"avatar":299,"firstName":17,"lastName":17,"displayName":300,"email":301,"username":302,"normalizedUsername":303,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":304},"Could 'The New Day' Heel Turn Lead To A 'Big E' Return?","could-the-new-day-heel-turn-lead-to-big-e-comeback","\n\u003Cp>WrestleMania Vegas is a mere couple of months away.

At a huge event like Wrestlemania, what a marquee return to present fans with.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\">\u003Cimg decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2187455115.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72817309\" style=\"width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2187455115.jpg 1024w, https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2187455115-300x200.jpg 300w, https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2187455115-150x100.jpg 150w, https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2187455115-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" />\u003Cfigcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Big E, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods speak during Monday Night RAW (Photo: WWE/Getty Images)\u003C/figcaption>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The beauty of this all, from a storytelling perspective, is that we’re featuring premier Black talent. But this story doesn’t have to use Blackness as a theme, or conduit to tell said story. This story is about brotherhood at its core. What happens when brothers don’t see eye to eye? Can brothers ever get back? We’re invested in the history of the wrestlers involved. The shift in attitude of “The New Day” has to have a pay-off. There has to be a comeuppance Big E returning to deliver just that, is perfect math to me.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Although Big E worked his “desk job” as an analyst at this past Saturday’s Royal Rumble, I think he is training. If I were scripting this, he would somehow make a return at the Elimination Chamber event in a few weeks. I know some may have expected him at the Rumble, but I feel like WWE is just keeping us on our toes. As someone who absolutely enjoys watching WWE, I’m very much entrenched in this long-form and callback style of storytelling. Truly, where “The New Day” goes, who really knows. But mark my words, this is probably the most storybook way this thing can go. Come April, I hope to be able to say I told you so.\u003C/p>\n",[754,755],{"name":200,"slug":201,"id":202},{"name":317,"slug":318,"id":319},[757,758,762,766],{"id":326,"name":327,"slug":328,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":759,"name":760,"slug":761,"description":17,"image":17},73615,"Monday Night Raw","monday-night-raw",{"id":763,"name":764,"slug":765,"description":17,"image":17},34816,"WWE","wwe",{"id":767,"name":768,"slug":769,"description":17,"image":17},15174,"WWE Kofi","wwe-kofi",{"url":771,"thumbnail":772,"credit":773,"title":342,"alt":17,"type":52},"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2195770625-Cropped.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GettyImages-2195770625-Cropped-150x94.jpg","Photo: WWE/Getty Images","2025-02-07T10:12:57-05:00","2025-02-07T10:13:02-05:00",[],{"disableAd":57,"disableConnatixPlayer":57,"enabledComments":57,"headScript":17},{"id":392,"author":779,"authors":780,"title":396,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":397,"body":398,"categories":782,"tags":786,"featuredMedia":791,"publishedAt":420,"updatedAt":421,"type":345,"listicle":792,"disableContentGate":57,"isDisabledListicleNumbers":57,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":415,"additional":793},{"id":351,"avatar":352,"firstName":353,"lastName":354,"displayName":355,"email":356,"username":357,"normalizedUsername":358,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":359},[781],{"id":351,"avatar":352,"firstName":353,"lastName":354,"displayName":355,"email":356,"username":357,"normalizedUsername":358,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":359},[783,784,785],{"name":200,"slug":201,"id":202},{"name":368,"slug":369,"id":370},{"name":313,"slug":314,"id":315},[787,788,789,790],{"id":405,"name":406,"slug":407,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":326,"name":327,"slug":328,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":410,"name":411,"slug":412,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":254,"name":255,"slug":256,"description":17,"image":17},{"url":415,"thumbnail":416,"credit":417,"title":418,"alt":419,"type":52},[],{"disableAd":57,"disableConnatixPlayer":57,"enabledComments":57,"headScript":17},{"id":795,"author":796,"authors":797,"title":799,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":800,"body":801,"categories":802,"tags":805,"featuredMedia":821,"publishedAt":825,"updatedAt":826,"type":345,"listicle":827,"disableContentGate":57,"isDisabledListicleNumbers":57,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":822,"additional":828},72815963,{"id":298,"avatar":299,"firstName":17,"lastName":17,"displayName":300,"email":301,"username":302,"normalizedUsername":303,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":304},[798],{"id":298,"avatar":299,"firstName":17,"lastName":17,"displayName":300,"email":301,"username":302,"normalizedUsername":303,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":304},"Is The NBA Ready For A New Face Of The League?","nba-new-face-of-the-league","\n\u003Cp>As we’re well into the twilight of \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/blavity-original/lebron-james-looking-age\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LeBron James\u003C/a>, Kevin Durant and \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/blavity-original/steph-curry-paris-olympics-top-basketball-moments\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Steph Curry’s\u003C/a> careers, we look to the future. For some time now there’s been a very valid question of who will become the new face of the NBA. The NBA went through such a transition when Michael Jordan retired for a second time in 1998. During that period between then and his return in 2001, the NBA spotlighted the likes of Kobe Bryant, Vince Carter, Shaquille O’Neal and Allen Iverson. There wasn’t solely one face. When Jordan returned to basketball, to me it served to buy the league some more time. Although we were in the middle of the primes of the aforementioned players, there still wasn’t a dominating entity.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>It just so happens that upon Jordan’s final retirement in 2003, that we learned of a superstar talent out of high school named LeBron James. He was getting ready to be drafted. He headlined a lauded class that included fellow Hall of Famers Dwyane Wade and Carmelo Anthony for starters. So once Jordan retired, we saw a league where for a period of time, Kobe Bryant was the standard of excellence. But James continued to chip away, until he finally won his first NBA championship in 2012. As he is beginning to wind down his 22 year career, we’re in familiar territory. There are a handful of NBA superstars who are equipped to take the mantle. The more important question is who wants it?\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\u003Ciframe title=\"Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Drops 52-PTS In Golden State | January 29, 2025\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/FmvnTBpc2Yk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/div>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>As international as the the game become, many of the league’s superstars were born overseas. So we can look at the likes of a Luka Doncic, for instance. His game is face of the league worthy. He’s a triple double threat on a nightly basis. He has underrated handles and finishing ability. He also has mastered a perimeter fade-away. However, he doesn’t seem to be a guy who wants the commercial responsibility of being the face of the NBA. Nikola Jokic of Serbia is a three-time league MVP. For what it’s worth, the league has gone as far as to nickname him “The Joker,” even though he rarely flexes any comedic chops. That’s all in the name of marketing.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\u003Ciframe title=\"Anthony Edwards Pours In 34 Points vs Nuggets! | January 25, 2025\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/GmLBqeXVnYE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/div>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>This does bring us to two players who I believe would embrace the moniker of “face of the league.” Anthony Edwards is a superstar guard with the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has a game that lends itself to being a superstar. Edwards is explosive. He plays with force and gives you the trash talk and confidence to back it up. His game is as captivating as it is exciting. It’s extremely highlight friendly. Not to be outdone by the Oklahoma City Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. He’s another international superstar. Hailing from Toronto, Canada, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander currently plays on a team with the best record in the NBA. He leads the league in scoring currently at 32.5 points per game. He is also a favorite to take home the league’s MVP honors.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>It’s those two fellas who will have their eyes on one another to become the premier star in the NBA. As for us fans, we’re in for a time because the greatness of their games are only rivaled by their competitive fervor. It makes you truly believe that the league is in good hands.

At one time, it was the weekend that we all would mark off on our calendars. Filled with excitement and intrigue, there was always an unknown that we would hype ourselves up for. Whether it was wondering if a hometown superstar might go for MVP, or who might win the slam dunk contest, the excitement was palpable. In recent years, things have changed. The business of basketball has evolved — and with that, it has changed how players approach huge marketing events like NBA All-Star Weekend. This year’s iteration is an interesting one. It’ll mark a pivot in how consumers continue to receive it.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Something that I’ve noticed in the lead-up to this year’s festivities is the coverage of the changes. This year the actual All-Star Game will not be your typical four quarter, 48-minute game. Instead, they’re going with a tournament style that will mix the NBA’s All-Stars with the leagues’ “rising stars.” They will play to a set score and winners will advance. Now, how this continues to be conveyed to us definitely tickles me. That’s because oftentimes, the analysts look like they have to force themselves to buy into this new format.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\u003Ciframe title=\"🚨 NEW 2025 NBA All-Star Game format REVEALED! 🚨 | NBA Today\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/PGnKZw3OUxM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/div>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>At the center of this conversation, pundits ask: “What would incentivize these players it play harder?” It’s patronizing to fans to even pose such a question. In prior eras, players were also paid handsomely in the NBA and still put forth a great effort in the All-Star game. More money doesn’t really seem to be an answer, and neither has toying with the formats. So, on-screen analysts have a hard time conveying their excitement. Their function is to get more eyes on the game.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Excitement is also waning because we’re not coming off the heels of a prior successful weekend. Last year’s All-Star Game really showed the dismal effort on grand display. So much so that it ruled the sports talk for some days afterward. It led to people like me not being ready to not watch the All-Star game this year. On top of that, we’re just not excited about the dunk contest if stars won’t participate. God bless \u003Ca href=\"https://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/4397071/mac-mcclung\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mac McClung\u003C/a>. The Orlando Magic’s reserve guard has already won the contest in the past, a couple of times over. He’s a talented dunker, but he isn’t a name that will put butts in seats.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>There is no visceral excitement about All-Star Weekend this year because we do not have much to look forward to. It’s plain and simple. I revere the Three-Point Shootout. That promises to be fun. And yes, I actually enjoy Friday night’s All-Star celebrity game. That event is pure shenanigans. But when that Sunday night comes, I will gladly occupy myself otherwise. Heck, it’s Valentine’s weekend anyway. So don’t threaten me with a good time.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Once the dust settles, I believe that the NBA will see that too many gimmicks won’t result in more viewership. I pray by next season, the players understand their responsibility to showcase the sport in its best light on this night.\u003C/p>\n",[838,839,840],{"name":200,"slug":201,"id":202},{"name":313,"slug":314,"id":315},{"name":317,"slug":318,"id":319},[842,843,844],{"id":326,"name":327,"slug":328,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":334,"name":335,"slug":336,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":845,"name":846,"slug":847,"description":17,"image":17},36404,"NBA All-Star Weekend","nba-all-star-weekend",{"url":849,"thumbnail":850,"credit":851,"title":852,"alt":853,"type":52},"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/GettyImages-2021819509-Cropped.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/GettyImages-2021819509-Cropped-150x94.jpg","Photo: Kevin Mazur/Getty Images","Stephen Curry and Anthony Davis","Stephen Curry and Anthony Davis on court","2025-01-31T10:19:44-05:00","2025-01-31T10:20:03-05:00",[],{"disableAd":57,"disableConnatixPlayer":57,"enabledComments":57,"headScript":17},{"id":859,"author":860,"authors":861,"title":863,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":864,"body":865,"categories":866,"tags":869,"featuredMedia":875,"publishedAt":881,"updatedAt":882,"type":345,"listicle":883,"disableContentGate":57,"isDisabledListicleNumbers":57,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":876,"additional":884},72812258,{"id":351,"avatar":352,"firstName":353,"lastName":354,"displayName":355,"email":356,"username":357,"normalizedUsername":358,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":359},[862],{"id":351,"avatar":352,"firstName":353,"lastName":354,"displayName":355,"email":356,"username":357,"normalizedUsername":358,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":359},"No-Buys Are Trending On TikTok: What Can It Teach Us About Consumerism?","no-buys-tiktok-trending","\n\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/new-years-superstitions-traditions\">The start of the year\u003C/a> has a way of bringing societal fatigue to the surface.

I wanted to take a look back at the Pittsburgh Steelers who lost earlier this postseason in the wild card. \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/pittsburgh-steelers-coach-mike-tomlin-has-the-most-wins-under-his-belt-of-any-black-head-coach-in-the-nfl\">Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin\u003C/a> has been at the helm in Pittsburgh for the past 16 seasons. In a league that has been much maligned for their lack of Black representation in the coaching ranks, this is huge. Being able to have a 16-year stint with one team is remarkable. Not to mention that Mike Tomlin has a Super Bowl win to his name. He also has never has a season where he finished under .500. Make no mistake, Tomlin is the goods.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Even with the success that he has amassed, the future hall of fame coach hasn’t won a Super Bowl since 2008. Every season is met with optimism, because Tomlin has proven that he can win. But from the outside looking in, the team seems to be stagnant. Part of that was Ben Roethlisberger’s retirement. But with a new tandem of Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, they hope to reach previous glory. It just didn’t happen during this season.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>In the sports world, head coaches in recent times seem to be given a short leash. Teams may hire a coach during a rebuild, and when the teams does get good, that coach gets let go. Sometimes that’s at the request of a player. That’s sort of the example with coach Kenny Atkinson during his time with the Brooklyn Nets. They were very competitive under his leadership before Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Durant got there. It was reported that Kyrie wanted someone else at the helm. Atkinson was dismissed as a result, and really, the team saw marginal success if any, afterward.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Conversely, Mark Jackson who really changed the culture in Golden State, was relieved of his duties once it was believed that the Warriors had plateaued. They brought in Steve Kerr, and eventually, even Kevin Durant. They won four titles in eight years. So teams move coaches to varying degrees of success.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\u003Ciframe title=\"Ryan Clark on the Steelers: There is NO WINNING with this team! | SC with SVP\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/jATwDERHZno?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/div>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>It’s my opinion that the Steelers are getting to that point with Mike Tomlin. As much as I respect what he has done in the NFL as a Black head coach, the teams seem to have plateaued. They haven’t been to a Super Bowl since 2011. Tomlin made history with that appearance as the only head coach to reach two Super Bowls before the age of 40. It’s truly remarkable what he has done in a head coaching career that boasts a .617 winning percentage.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>I’m not saying that Tomlin should no longer be a head coach either. But what I am saying, is that maybe the Steelers could stand to have a new voice in their locker room. Maybe some new scenery would benefit Tomlin as well. Much more, I’m sure will be contained for next season, and we’ll see how that pans out. But I’m very interested to see if the Steelers organization change their tune if they suffer another early postseason exit.\u003C/p>\n",[894,895,896],{"name":200,"slug":201,"id":202},{"name":313,"slug":314,"id":315},{"name":317,"slug":318,"id":319},[898,899,903,907],{"id":326,"name":327,"slug":328,"description":17,"image":17},{"id":900,"name":901,"slug":902,"description":17,"image":17},30257,"Roger Goodell","roger-goodell",{"id":904,"name":905,"slug":906,"description":17,"image":17},17965,"Russell Wilson","russell-wilson",{"id":908,"name":909,"slug":910,"description":17,"image":17},22352,"Steelers","steelers",{"url":912,"thumbnail":913,"credit":914,"title":342,"alt":17,"type":52},"https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/GettyImages-2193903861-Cropped.jpg","https://cms.blavity.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/GettyImages-2193903861-Cropped-150x94.jpg","Photo: Cooper Neill/Getty Images","2025-01-25T14:57:27-05:00","2025-01-25T14:57:34-05:00",[],{"disableAd":57,"disableConnatixPlayer":57,"enabledComments":57,"headScript":17},{"id":920,"author":921,"authors":922,"title":924,"subTitle":17,"excerpt":17,"slug":925,"body":926,"categories":927,"tags":931,"featuredMedia":942,"publishedAt":948,"updatedAt":949,"type":345,"listicle":950,"disableContentGate":57,"isDisabledListicleNumbers":57,"canonicalUrl":17,"socialThumbnail":943,"additional":951},72810756,{"id":298,"avatar":299,"firstName":17,"lastName":17,"displayName":300,"email":301,"username":302,"normalizedUsername":303,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":304},[923],{"id":298,"avatar":299,"firstName":17,"lastName":17,"displayName":300,"email":301,"username":302,"normalizedUsername":303,"description":17,"twitter":17,"facebook":17,"instagram":17,"registeredAt":304},"Is Jimmy Butler's Approach To Trade Demands Incredibly Smart Or Incredibly Stupid?","jimmy-butler-approach-to-trade-demands","\n\u003Cp>Recently, \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/jimmy-butler-wants-to-be-traded\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jimmy Butler\u003C/a> of the \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/blavity-original/dwyane-wade-on-wnba-support\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Miami Heat\u003C/a> let it be known that he wanted to be traded from the team. This marks the third team that Jimmy Butler has wanted out of. Previous stints in Minnesota and Chicago resulted similarly.

If a player hasn’t been happy in several stops on his tour, who is to say your team will magically be different?\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\u003Ciframe title=\"Jimmy Butler Requests a Trade from the Miami Heat\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/HMX0pL8HvpY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/div>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>That’s the approach a decent amount of NBA teams have going into this period of negotiating with the Heat. It certainly doesn’t help that Butler was recently suspended for seven games due to “conduct detrimental to the team.” This was in a response to Butler not fully engaging during previous games, and doing less that going through the motions. To me, all of these antics are things that teams look at and discuss. They wonder if this behavior is worth committing max money to. That’s max money that Butler is seeking at 35 years old.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>When a player hits their mid-30s typically, they’re at the end of their prime. LeBron James, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant are all anomalies. When it comes to Butler, he has shown to be prone to injury over the past five seasons. It gives a lot of prospective trade partners cause to pause. I can’t blame them at that. With a $52 million player \u003Ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6036624/2025/01/05/jimmy-butler-trade-rumors-heat-nba/#:~:text=The%20other%20issue%20complicating%20the,make%20%2452%20million%20next%20season.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">option\u003C/a> next season, it makes you wonder why he wouldn’t guarantee himself that money now.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>I’m no expert, but he may have an inflated idea of what kind of player he can be over a long stretch. At this point, we don’t get Butler for long stretches as it is. So the glaring question is, what is the benefit of signing on with Butler for max money (over $52 million) over four years? That question is further compounded by Butler’s conduct with the teams he has been disgruntled with.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>I don’t believe Butler has done himself any favors here. I don’t see the Heat feeling the need to rush and take any offer that comes along either. It’s unfortunate, because I view Butler as a talented player at both ends. But by no means do I view him as a star player who you would invest in building your team around. This is especially as you’re on the cusp of turning 36. His abilities aren’t as dynamic at that age for the amount of time that he’ll be available.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>If I had to guess, Butler will find himself on a mid-level team looking to make a strong playoff push.

I mean, the First Lady certainly did cut an interesting figure in her Eric Javits top hat, and we all know Kardashian has quite the penchant for recreating looks, so maybe the post was just a hint for what we can expect from her. But for many, the post signaled much more than just outfit appreciation or potential emulation — it was a whisper of allegiance.

It’s a three on three professional \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/blavity-original/wnba-best-season-ever\">women’s basketball\u003C/a> league. It has been heavily invested in by current and former sports stars like Michael Phelps and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Initially, I started to think about the parallels between this league and Ice Cube’s Big 3. That’s especially in the case where he bid to bring \u003Ca href=\"https://blavity.com/caitlin-clark-white-privilege-black-wnba-players\">Caitlin Clark\u003C/a> in after her college career, citing that he could pay her more than the WNBA would. But as I looked at the obvious parallel of three on three basketball, I had to consider what set Unrivaled apart from the Big 3.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>One of the biggest hurdles that \u003Cem>Unrivaled \u003C/em>won’t have to deal with is the league’s visibility. There will be\u003Cem> Unrivaled \u003C/em>games played on TNT for example. You have to be able to find the product easily to support it. In the Big 3’s initial run, you could easily access it on CBS. That’s no longer the case, as the league’s coverage is now solely seen on the Big 3’s website. It has in the last few years, become much more of a niche product. That’s after launching and promoting it as a league that you’d be able to watch Allen Iverson ball again. The amount of notable NBA alumni has dwindled so much so that a casual fan may not check it out. That’s where \u003Cem>Unrivaled \u003C/em>doesn’t have an issue.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\u003Ciframe title=\"Meet Unrivaled’s New Head Coaches\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/UDu2OKs_b2s?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003C/iframe>\n\u003C/div>\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>One of the biggest appeals of \u003Cem>Unrivaled \u003C/em>is the fact that this league will include \u003Cem>active\u003C/em> WNBA players and \u003Cem>only\u003C/em> WNBA players. The Big 3 features former NBA players, who most of which were not elite talents. It also includes players who have played internationally, but not at the NBA level. In essence, the league indirectly functions as a farm system for NBA talent. From that, there has been some success stories, like a short career resurgence for Joe Johnson. But in \u003Cem>Unrivaled\u003C/em>, you’ll see WNBA players in their prime, still competing at a prime level.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>With that level of competition, this league will also help in preparing the women for their upcoming season. The beauty of Unrivaled is that it also creates a revenue stream for these players where they may not have to play overseas during their off-seasons anymore. It’s truly a revolutionary concept. With up the uptick in energy surrounding the players of the WNBA, a solid financial backing and a fresh collection of talent, I see this league really taking off.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>I know the initial feeling to another sports league launching could feel cumbersome. Something else to watch? Was it just me? But once I could make a distinction with the void I believe this league will fill, I was sold. I can’t wait to look forward to new rivalries being formed, and some being quelled because rivals could become teammates. Winter women’s basketball has a fly ring to it, blame alliteration.

You know the line, “People only post their highlight reels online, not their real lives.”\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Now, I agree with that sentiment in theory, but using the term “highlight reel” to imply no one is truly enjoying their lives gives me pause.
