That is legit. Can't have your wife and your GF living in the same city.

Coming from a current Atlanta resident. There's a reason the only big time free agent ATL has attracted in the last 10 years is a vastly overpaid Joe Johnson.

You would think, but I've heard from more than one person in the know that NBA stars don't consider Atlanta because, and I kid you not, this is where all their side chicks are and they don't want to play that close to the drama.


I've heard this from multiple people as well. Crazy there might actually be some truth to this.

I think Jalen Rose called Atlanta when we're even mildly competitive, "one of the best home court advantages in the NBA." Not necessarily because of our daunting crowds, rather, the players all go out and party the night before games.

Think we beat OKC by 20+ this year. Rose simply got on camera and said, "Just a Buckhead night. Nothing to see here."

Of course it had to be our city.
