DG_ThenNowForever Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 6 minutes ago, the admiral said: Under normal circumstances, no, you shouldn't, which I've said already. But a zero-tolerance policy is facile, as zero-tolerance policies often are. Except zero tolerance for violently touching NBA players while they're playing is a policy that actually does make sense. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
who do you think Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 42 minutes ago, the admiral said: The guy didn't throw a punch or anything. Clock wasn't running. He didn't even push him very hard. I don't know why everyone is in such a state over the thought that someone would touch a player. I will pray for the safety of Kyle Lowry and hope this does not lead to a rash of copycat shoves. It's 2019 in the NBA, the major sports league with by far the softest, most insecure players of all four major sports, the most hysterical media, and the most dramatic and hypersensitive fans. When are they not in a state over something stupid? The entire NBA operation runs on instagram memes at this point. EDIT: Also the league with by far the highest ratio of people referring to posts/opinions they don't like as "takes". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 at first I was like, "what's the big deal?", but then when I learned who he is I was like, "HE SHOULD HAVE TO DO SIX YEARS IN THE CLINK! GO RAPS!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glover Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I don't think the "shove" is that big of a deal at the end of the day, but you HAVE to use more common sense if you're minority owner of an NBA franchise. Just doesn't look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that matter, Deadspin's post about this incident was hardly a freakout. Nonetheless we'll weigh the opinions of people who don't really seem to like the NBA much anyway!

The title of that article: "The Old Knob Who Shoved Kyle Lowry Is Warriors Minority Owner Mark Stevens" From the body of that article: "Stevens, who naturally is a venture capitalist douchebag, reached out and shoved Lowry with one hand." Yeah, they seem pretty level-headed about it. Nothing but the facts! Deadspin is literally nothing BUT freakouts and impotent rage. It's the only reason they exist.

You do need a break from the NBA & sports in general. The Warriors really seem get under your skin. Sports are meant to be entertaining. If you can't let things just roll off your back then I don't know what to do for you. Pleasant day sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
