Maybe we have our explanation as to why Michael Porter Jr. made such a huge leap in his development as a player since the bubble.
One would assume his professionalism certainly improved over the past three years.
It also explains why coach Michael Malone was riding his ass so hard during his first few years in the league.
Although it has to be said, it sounds like a pretty sweet time.

sounds pretty awesome
Lmfao, not the dunk on Montrezl?
That sounds like a hella good time.
A doc on life inside the bubble would be so interesting.
I know they were on the same team, but that is the most random collection of dudes to be drinking frozen drinks by the pool lmfao
Damn I need to get me one of them bubbles
TIL I could have been a professional basketball player just Like Mike™️
Next he’ll be telling us he likes getting caught in the rain. Does he have half a brain?
MPJ doesn’t seem like the type of young man to relax that way so I was very happy to read this. 🙂
thats fucking sick. obligatory rip to those who passed. a lotta people seem to have at a fond memory or two when everything just stopped.
I remember Ben Simmons caught a fish in the bubble. It looked pretty awesome
My favorite drink. Always a good choice.
Were they all 21 back then? 🤔
anyone who said the Bubble was like the players were in prison/slavery were huge dumb asses.
And they ended up inspiring this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znWi3zN8Ucg. Probably.
Ok
It’s shit like this that makes me roll my eyes when people talk about this bubble being mentally tough.
Like if you look at what they “went through” in the bubble and think it’s a hardship on any level. Congrats, you got a soft ass Cush life yourself as well.
The bubble is my dream life lol nba and pina coladas
Remember the players who talked about how hard the bubble was on them? Lmfao
Haslem sleeping on the couch and making sure his soul is surrounded by darkness and bol bol is out here just living his best life 😂
Lmao this Nuggets team is such an eccentric bunch of dudes.
Bol Bol is the GOAT. He is just misused by his coaches. He needs to play a jokic role but with twice as much scoring. 40-15-15 should be his average.
So that is how Lebronze won his Mickey Mouse ring, by buying his opponents pina coladas, smart man.
How come now everyone talks about the bubble like it was so awesome, but at the time everyone acted like it was the worst thing in the world? I guess narratives change depending on if you’re defending your bubble performance or not
I think people forget that, while professional athletes, these guys are still super young and mostly uneducated (not that they are dumb, just that it would take some experience in order to solidify business-wise, as well as having the innate ability to select the right people for their respective jobs).
Imagine being in your 20s, pretty famous, making more money than you had ever dreamed of, and changing your life radically in under a decade? Not to mention the vultures/opportunists.
I doubt most people in their 20s only thought about work first, everything else second. It is why guys like Kobe, LeBron, MJ, Giannis, are so great – they obviously have the talent, but they already had the maturity and mentality of consummate professionals. But most people aren’t like that, so we should understand that there is a potential character growth included when you draft someone.
Must be why Bol Bol fucking sucks
Been on mpj hype since day 1. Man i think MPJ could blow up to a second option, but he doesnt have to with Murray.
Has been amazing to see his improvement in defense.
That is peak living man. Stay at a resort, play basketball and drink coladas all day by the pool. Fuck
Honestly dude I’m not judging anyone for how they got through the pandemic
NBA players have it so good lol
> drink pina coladas all day
Wow guys were sure taking the “NBA Playoffs” seriously that year…
Embiid has Shirley Temples, Porter’s got Piña Coladas. Maybe a correlation.
if you like piña coladas..
