Pay attention you participation trophy-loving, “winning isn’t everything”-type parents … Gary Payton is about to give you a lesson in tough love … by giving you a SUPER REAL scouting report on his son.
And it’s kinda prophetic.
We got Payton out in L.A. Sunday night … only hours before his kid, Gary II – an undrafted rookie — was released by the Houston Rockets. We wanted to know, are we looking at another Hall of Fame Payton?

Check out the clip — and remember to call your MOM this week.
