The upside is, I don’t think that many players will be upset. You see, dumb people don’t tend to think they we are dumb

Yeah Reddit won’t like this, but it’s hard

Did he somehow already get way more likable after the trade or do I just hate Boston that much?

My god I forgot about that

All summer? It’s not even 4th of July yet lol

Jo hated Drummond and publicly trashed him every opportunity he had until Dre signed in Philly and theres never been any issues. Drummond has even come back twice now.

It won’t be a thing.

Lol in fairness I think he said embid is too good of a player to be flopping like that. Low key a compliment 😂

Anyone who tells you they’re the smartest person in the room is almost certainly not the smartest person in the room lol

Well there’s the fact that we can see he clearly isn’t

And Derrick white

That’s a very low bar, bro.

Shout-out to his former teammate Qyrie

Not a huge Jaylen fan but he clapped back with that one. What’s just as funny is seeing a bunch of reddit nerds get their panties in a bunch and not be able to take a joke (not you, but other people in this thread responding to his statement trying to analyze it like some legally binding document lol).

It drives me insane when people call pre-switching on defense or matchup hunting on offense “high IQ” plays, like how isn’t that the norm nowadays?

That was my thought.

After hearing some of these players’ off-court opinions these past few years he probably is lmao

Because people like to make fun of pseudo-intellectuals more than they like to make fun of actually dumb folks

Serious question

What exactly makes you think he is smarter than average?

Was it when he said James Naismith didn’t invent basketball while he simultaneously misspelled the name Naismith?

Was it when he partnered with Donda Sports?

When he platformed the anti-semetic hate group?

Is he actually? What achievements has he got that makes him smarter than average

Please explain how he is “obviously smarter than average”

He’s obviously smarter than average

Average person? This is not obvious to me at all. He believes multiple weird conspiracy theories. 

Apparently that’s a made up story since history didn’t exist before 1950’s

Yeah it was Aaron Nesmith duh

*Neismith

He’s a one eyed man in a locker room full of blind men. But walk outside the locker room and most everyone else has 2 eyes.

He was also on the chess club, have some respect

Can confirm. My cousin was a pro hockey player, and while I don’t know how the college rigged his grades I do for a fact know he did absolutely zero school work in the 3 years he was there. 

This.

It’s about arrogance, not about intellect lol, and couldn’t pass the test.

No offense to everybody in sports?

No, offense to everybody in sports.

I worked for a scammer in Dorchester who lectured at Harvard who got right of stage and told me “I just made 3000 bucks for that one hour”

He had a former coke dealer on payroll as his driver since he had 3 aliases and no drivers license.

True story.

It doesn’t take much to simply lecture at Harvard. It really doesn’t. I spent much of my youthful Saturdays in the summer at Harvard as a DuBois Scholar in HS.

Also he often says “the incarceration rate in Boston is super high.”

Well, no. It’s not. Massachusetts has the nations lowest incarceration rate and it has the nations lowest black incarceration rate. So it tells me he’s not fact checking the things that he says before he says them. To be fair, I guess, specific city of Boston figures are not available.

But it was alarming to me that he has *repeatedly * stated something factually wrong and not just wrong. It is VERY wrong. That has been a red flag to me for some time

Chet isn’t smart enough to know that you need food to survive

if chet believes in vaccines he is not smarter than chet

Thats more than two words

Right lol, most of the comments in here are missing that nuance. This is exactly what the report said he would say haha. 

A lot of smart people do act like they are the smartest in the room though.
