"Something's seriously wrong with them" - Bill Simmons

I agree, they should sit him. Old man shouldn't be playing third most minutes in the league. You bring up good points.

 

I’m responding to your statement on what supposedly happened with him on social media, which you take for gospel. i’m also speaking of fans in general who buy into these things that haven’t been substantiated. He didn’t admit to it. No one has metadata that links him to it. There hasn’t been an investigation. So why would anyone believe this or care? Sure he may have done it but if i post something that accuses you of cheating on your wife on social media you could or could not have done it. That’s my point.

The way the team embraced each other year shows me they don’t care. Who cares?

 

Your reading comprehension is frustrating. What part of "The thing about me is I am mature enough to say I don't know 100% for sure what happened. I can admit that its possible that wasn't him, can you admit that it is possible that it was?" did you not understand? The reason there hasn't been an investigation into it is there is no way to investigate it. The NBA has no legal authority to demand the ip addresses of who owned that account. There is nothing they can do.

 

Not sure why you had your go there. Did I disrespect you? I said you took this information as gospel which you did in your post which I initially responded to. You claimed my response had nothing to do with you but it absolutely did since you directly took this unsubstantiated information as truth. What’s frustrating about me pointing that out?

I already said sure he could have done it and I said no different than someone posting something about you. Sure there’s some possibility. But we live in a culture where people take anything some as$hole online posts and take it as truth.

Lol of course there wouldn’t be an investigation and that’s my point. There’s nothing substantiating any of this. Unconfirmed information which people online are stating as truth. So why did you buy into it?

Your original comment I responded to for your reference:

“I will sum things up for you. We have a man name Kevin Durant who has this addiction to social media and can't help but talking trash on his teammates. We have his teammates who got talk trash about but know what was said is true which makes things awkward.”

 

Things are easier for a young team when you don't have real expectations and simply making the playoffs is an accomplishment. I don't see it really discussed on here.... but we have a lot of young guys who may think they need more of a role or playing for their first extension.

Things were already pretty bad before the KD tweets.

 

Rockets better land his ass

 

That’s why they needed vet guidance and leadership and that’s why we brought in Brooks, FVV, Jeff. I’m sure coaching staff has got them in the mindset. That’s an element of coaching rarely discussed on here. People keep complaining and focusing on playing time and rotations but almost no one talks about the coaching challenge of getting the team to focus on the mission and encouraging and motivating young players.

These guys already had a playoff experience and they probably know what the mission is the team is trying to accomplish. And if their minds are on contracts then its up to coaching and vets to guide them back toward the mission
