At the time of my hire, I was the youngest VP in the company By a mile (or a decade) A well-established tech company based in SF in a hyper competitive space (EPM/CPM) 3 years later, I'm a established SaaS Sales leader But here is the truth... I shouldn't be here. 👇

@jj_redick @patbev21 Didn't JJ start on that Sixers team that probably wins a chip if it weren't for Kawhi and those Toronto rims? I think his career goes ok with or without Doc. Now, Doc without KG Ray Allen, Rondo and Pierce on the other hand?

@MarinaMedvin @johnfrr54 When Jesus (PBUH) is referred to as a Muslim by Muslims. It is meant in the ideological and theological sense of the word, not in terms of ethnicity or genealogy. The literal term "Muslim" in Islam means one who submits to the will of God. You can agree or disagree with that

@WalderSports Being an All Star once, doesn't make him an all star. He will never be that type of player again. He's gone from a + defender to a - defender He's worn out His shooting %'s are also down He's just not a 30 mill guy, and I think that notion of paying him that scares fans.
