Honestly tho you should know I was complimenting her beauty without any kind of negativity it's more eye of the beholder with how you took that and turned it negative. Either way you look beautiful too sorry for upsetting you or forgetting to compliment you as well. I'm getting old now with gray hairs showing up. I used to get the u look exactly the same or still young. Never confused it for insults. However if someone said your growth has been stupendous...I would be mad cuz honestly it hasn't been stupendous not even close it's patronizing its sincerity.

I guess I only said it like that cuz the first comment upset me with how fake or insincere it sounded. Maybe he really meant that. I was just being honest and she looks the same as when I first saw her in the video games which was over five yrs ago maybe longer plus I haven't seen her since those video games almost ten yrs ago. Other than a dunk contest show she was on called dunk champs I think. She doesn't need my comments anyway she knows what she looks like I think.

    In one CBA season, Grayson Boucher averaged 4.5 points and 2.3 assists on .426 shooting. Even his per 36 stats were just 7.9 points and 4.0 assists. Mind you this is the CBA. Professor is better at basketball than 99.9% of all humans, but he probably wasn't good enough to make the NBA. Maybe if he grew more as a player back then, which was possible. To be able to hold your own in the CBA is impressive, but you need to be in the top 1% of CBA players to make the NBA. Kids don't understand how good you have to be to even sniff the CBA or G-League.
