AB3 nicknamed the locker-room "josh" and he's just commenting on the paint job and his prescience of it.  Like when black folks sometimes call everybody "joe" even when that's not their name.   :dunno:

I imagine it could be both or neither.  One doesn't preclude the other.  It's usage is more or less exclusively African American in my community.  I've encountered it too frequently to be considered an aberration.  It's just slang, there's no value judgment attached.

Yeah.  That's what I was trying to say in my response.  Could be very regional AFAIK.  Super popular here though.

Yeah, my internet skills aren't good enough to figure out who that @Dubie1914 guy is.
Sometimes I think of the Book of Job and how God likes to really eff with people.

i think the mystweet is simply a person saying that he was surprised they didn't take gray.

:frown: Oh, man.  Sorry guys.  Just wrapped up in introducing different cultural vernaculars to the board is all.  Back to business. :bball:  Did we figure out why oscar blew it with Josh Gray yet and why AB3 is mocking him on the twitters for it? :thumbs:
