Dennis knew about the secret tunnel at Staples

Dennis Schroder tryna beat me up! Get down here and save me

I’ll never forget this

Police presence

I look at the mirror and call myself a bitch every morning for motivation.

Reminds me of the LeBron/Klay drama in 2016. People still give Klay shit for (accurately) noting that LeBron got his feelings hurt when Draymond called him a bitch.

LeBron: Draymond called me a bitch, which is overboard because I have a family:

“I’m all cool with the competition. I’m all fine with that, but some of the words that came out of his mouth was a little bit overboard, and being a guy with pride, a guy with three kids and a family, things of that nature, some things just go overboard and that’s where he took it, and that was it.”

Klay: People talk trash a lot, but I guess what Draymond said hurt his feelings:

“Guys talk trash in this league all the time,” Thompson said. “I’m just kind of shocked some guys take it so personal. You know, it’s a man’s league and I’ve heard a lot of bad things on that court, but at the end of the day, it stays on the court. We’re all competitive people. Trash talk is a part of the game in basketball. I feel like it’s a part of any sport, especially this competitive.”

A reporter then asked Thompson directly if he thought James overreacted.

“I don’t know,” Thompson said. “I don’t know how the man feels. But obviously people have feelings and people’s feelings get hurt even if they’re called a bad word. I guess his feelings just got hurt. I mean, we’ve all been called plenty of bad words on the basketball court before. Some guys just react to it differently. All I can say, for myself individually, I just try to ignore it or just let it fuel the fire, but I don’t carry it with me when the job is done.”

They’re always so bothered by it that they can’t even bring themselves to repeat it. It’s just “Something you should never call another man”

I feel like this has always been fighting words for men?

I grew up in Oakland in the 80s-90s… calling someone a bitch was basically attacking their character, challenging them to fight. More often than not you could expect to get hit. It kind of shocked me how casually other people threw the phrase around when I got to college.

I mean, Ben Wallace laid out someone after a game in the parking lot for calling him a bitch

Idk. I feel like more people should be sensitive about it and then it would stop happening. People are too casual about being disrespectful.

Just fake tough guy shit. It’s like when they pretend to fight in a game but never actually do because nobody is going to fight in an nba game.

There’s more shit talking in pick up games that doesnt lead to this

r/NBA is on Luka hate mode. If this was Steph it would be a different story

I don’t know how you guys are in your interactions, but unless it’s someone you know and it’s joking around, ‘bitch’ is fighting words lmao

Honor culture.

Idk it just says he “tried” to drag shroeder away

He’s alive!

Idk this one’s a swing and a miss. Ayton’s been pretty good this season

They met in the last two Eurobaskets and in the Worldcup. IIRC Luka taunted Dennis in the 2022 Eurobasket

They played each other 4 times in the last 3 years and Germany beat them everytime

Luka played 3 of them and same for Dennis

You call someone a bitch usually they’ll hit you

I mean it is unreasonable it’s a game. At the end of the day they’re all wildly successful and mega rich. Luka can 100% trash talk Schroder, and then they can both go home and be okay.

yeah except, waiting until after the game like 40 minutes later to try to retaliate actually does make him a bitch😂

Dumb take. What do you do when someone calls you a bitch on the road?

Combination of people wondering what’s so bad about being called a bitch and others thinking it’s off limits to call another man.

Truely a mix of cultures.

I guess this is just further proof that no one actually watches the game.

Feels like at least once a game the mics will catch any of the following:

get that shit outta here n

fuck you bitch

hell nah mother fucker

soft ass mofo

pussy shit

etc

You’d be suprised how riled up people get with that world lol even in casual hoops

In certain cultures, especially ones involving prison, “bitch” is a fighting word. While I think it’s the DUMBEST thing to be offended over, it riles certain people up. That’s said, Dennis is posturing and we all know it. Just like his comments last season about slavery, this is a German-born transplant trying to act like he’s “with it” while simultaneously holding grudges over the millions he lost due to bad business

Seriously though. People also forgetting that these are athletes paid tens of millions to play a game, so they ought to play it up to be entertaining and not take shit personally. If getting called a bitch is enough to set off Schroeder, imagine Kevin Garnett telling him his girl tastes likes Cheerios 😭😭

Luka is the enemy of the month on here so the narrative dictates that.

Kevin Durant is bullying role players every other week and gets praised like hell for it on here.

Grown man showered got dressed still chose violence. Thus ain’t the street. Score on him beat him defend him tgats hiw you shut up people as an adult.

Not to mention it’s Schroder of all people saying this. Dude has the biggest mouth until he gets cooked and crashes out.

Anytime bro is taking a free throw guys will know exactly how to taunt him. He’s mentally fragile. Why are you going to let everyone know how easy it is to rattle you lol

tbh right now luka’s playing like absolute dog shit so the circle jerk is against him

schroder literally did this same shit to Kyrie when he called him the n word

Anyone who trash talks (90% of players) has to get into physical fights too? You’re a child.

When he was on the Hawks Schroder was arrested for jumping a guy with his entourage, and then badly beating the guy while he was on the ground to the point that the victim needed multiple surgeries. So Schroder’s always been a punk

Anyone who thinks NBA players should be swinging over like anything at all on the court is a moron. The only reason hockey players are allowed to fight is because they’re on skates, it’s hard to fight on skates.

If we had 6’9 nba mfs actually fighting on the regular it would be a disaster and everyone would call them thugs.

Absolutely. The obvious solution is to fight in a gimmicky celebrity boxing promotion in 10 years.

These are def dudes reminiscing about high school fights lol. You can’t really fight in the real world man no matter how many KO videos you see online.

I think Luka hit below the belt with that comment. It def struck a nerve.

It was definitely the contract talk lol. NBA players are very sensitive about missed bags

If Schroeder demands satisfaction then Luka is honor-bound to accept with a weapon of his choosing. If not his men will never follow him in battle

You dont get it man, luka crossed a line there, he broke the code. He made fun of the millionaire because said millionaire could be more millionaire had he not been a delusional idiot.

It’s honestly baffling that the league is suspending dennis for defending his honor instead of luka doncic for commiting such nefarious act

I imagine if Steven Adams is saying it (he probably wouldn’t), no one’s doing shit about it

He got butthurt about Luka clowning in the hole in his pocket. I’ve heard worse shit come over the rim mics.

Dennis knows how he is. They have played against each other A LOT. Here and in Europe. He’s saying it’s because Luka call him a bitch but it’s really because he clowned on him dropping the bag. Pride befalls the man.

fr draymond just added some intel to the trash talk bag for sure lmao. man just told the world what play to run

Thats not what happened. Kleber wanted to cherrypick his attendance in the national team and that was not really well received, not just from Schröder.

Thats not true. Why are you spreading fake information? Coach Herbert wanted commitment for the nationial team for three summers. The Eurobasket 2022, the World Cup 2023 and Olympia 2024. Kleber didnt want to give him the commitment for the Eurobasket but later wanted to come back to the World Cup and Olympia because he saw how successful Germany is now. Schröder, the coach and everyone else on the team said thats not going to happen.

If it ended at the statement, sure.
