Don’t confuse height for heart. Today’s GYMR is a tribute to the great Isaiah Thomas; NBA’s toughest athlete in the game. Talk about a family-related tragedy taking place before you lace your shoes for Playoff performance. Have you experienced anything similar to I.T.’s? If the answer is no, you must rid your complaints. For his younger sister Chyna, Isaiah put up an amazing 53-points on a night that would have been her 23rd birthday. It’s more than just a game man.

Today’s episode is a dedication to Damian Lillard, aka “Dame D.O.L.L.A.”. If you didn’t know, Dame pursues his passion off the court, exercising his lyrical skills in the booth. Since he’s an Oakland native, Dame refers to the “Yellow Tape Mentality” often to express his hunger when it comes to crushing his goals… and THIS is the mentality you will instill in your life, too. Knock down your obstacles and draw some chalk around ‘em.
