He also follows a bunch of chuds and right wing grifters, so that kinda says a lot too lol

I dont like him because hes French. We are not the same.

Cooked on the perimeter by Terrence Mann*

It may be childish and moronic, but that act probably saved countless lives because it led to the shutdown of the league. It really felt like the world wasn’t taking Covid seriously until the NBA made their decision.

A professional athlete being childish and moronic?

Since when???

Ngl that shit was the funniest thing ever after he tested positive for Covid.

Yeah there isn’t any debate with him unfortunately he’s actually just dumb like that and also not introspective enough to change and challenge himself to become better. I can forgive people for being wrong and being taught the wrong things but when you become an adult, leave your bubble and still don’t change that’s when I make my decision. That’s when every adult no matter who they are is challenged on their world view and either modifies themselves to adjust for the things that weren’t quite right or puts their head in the sand and never becomes who they should’ve been

You can see it happen with a lot of people in both directions. Some turtle up and treat their personal beliefs like real life tower defense simulator where they just try to install rhetoric to avoid admitting fault and changing their beliefs or they age into someone like Charles Barkley who isn’t always right and did some pretty bad things but kept moving forward and became a more accepting and reasonable person regardless of how it started

What’s lost in that story is that the NBA had implemented a policy of social distancing for the reporters and they weren’t happy about it. So Gobert rubbed the mics as a funny show of solidarity.

This is an insane take, because it completely ignores the fact that NONE OF US actually understood how serious it was at that point. Yes, go back and find articles talking about how serious it was, but that still doesn’t show how pretty much everyone was still figuring out how bad it was. We all thought it was going to be over in a couple weeks at that point. It was very immature what he did and is super dumb, but people take what they know NOW about COVID and pretend that’s how serious we knew it was when he did the mic thing.

I’m not defending other actions or people he follows, but Coronavirus was considered a joke by many until it wasn’t.

Should he have not been immature with his joke? Sure.

Does that mean he deserves all the hate, death threats, and other negative backlash he received? No.

Other players were given privacy when they contracted the virus. He was considered patient zero and treated like Typhoid Mary, yet other players with greater knowledge of the virus did even more reckless things than touch microphones

Rudy will never recover from /u/EverythingStillSucks never liking him ever again

That’s such a nothing burger to get hanged up on. Weird take.

What a bizarre thing to hate someone for.

It’s also been years since then. Maybe he’s changed? Learned and grown as a human being? 

If KAT can forgive Rudy for the covid press conference, you can too.

Forgiveness is a virtue. Let it go.

Ok loser

Charles Barkley is wondering if max has a makeout partner yet.

i see you have a type, chuck

Being replaced by Full Penetration Fridays

Then he added Merrill to list of players he wanted to get vaccinated with this summer.

lmao

I mean you’re downvoted but it’s true. All of our best pastas are from the 2010s

It’s an attempt to get Detroit to play less physical defense. Don’t wanna get too close and catch something

I actually think Darnold was kinda hobbled in the playoffs. But tbf after 5 months of NFL football I imagine loads of players are.

His confirmed fandoms are Villanova basketball and White Sox baseball.

Now I don’t know if he’s a Bulls fan but Chicago did get a Top 4 pick in the lottery so maybe he threw a couple prayers your way.

Reasons to face Detroit:

• Their offense is atrocious

• KAT and Mitch will likely torment playoff Duren

• Get back for the regular season

Reasons to face Cleveland:

• Homecourt Advantage

• Mitch and Hart have historically owned Cleveland’s bigs

• It’d be really fucking funny for Detroit to lose after being obsessed with the Knicks all year

Tough choice.

I think it doesn’t matter at this point as long as it goes to 7, higher competition would help the Knicks be ready for whoever comes out of the west *if* they make it out of the east

Uganda virus (lol)

Infamous stomach bug Covid
