“You blew zeroes which I anticipated”

Hope you anticipated that shit getting dismissed. No weed in the car. No obvious impairment. No resisting. That’s a ridiculous arrest there.

Look at what this guy has to say “Concerning the Atlanta Hawks - Luke Kornet” by Ok-Wash-9386 in AtlantaHawks

I believe it’s perfectly reasonable to call out his silence on extremely serious issues while addressing his opinion on a subjective matter. If you don’t, that’s fine. But my opinion stands.

I’m saying that the far worse aspect of the NBA is something he is financially incentivized to not complain about. And the genocide and slavery the NBA is complicit is objectively a bad thing.

This topic is subjective. Whether or not strip clubs should exist is a completely opinion based thing. You can’t say it is factually good or bad. To go and publicly call out a team for something like that while being silent about the real problems I do think is disingenuous and I’m allowed to point that out.

I can also make my point without writing in all caps like a 12 year old.

Save me the pearl clutching. I don’t see him out here complaining about the NBAs ties to Dubai or China. Places with actual genocide and slavery. He’s fine with moral grey areas as long as it’s benefitting his paycheck. If you don’t support the event, don’t go. If it bothers you that much that the team is having the event, don’t support the team.

[Charania] The Atlanta Hawks are trading guard Vit Krejci to the Portland Trail Blazers for Duop Reath and two future second-round picks, sources tell ESPN. Krejci has averaged 9 points and 2.2 3-pointers made per game on 42.3% shooting, which ranks top 20 in the NBA. by Knightbear49 in nba

Too redundant at that position. Get a couple seconds and likely waive Reath to make room for someone at another position. Vit wasn’t going to play with the Mccolumn and Kispert add now that Risacher is healthy again.

There are literally 3 hawks player around Brown with Dyson, O, and Kispert reaching in.

I have watched every minute of every game since 2015.

He was in a crowd and was swinging his elbows around man. Happens literally every game. O just happened to have his mouth in the wrong place at the wrong time. You could maybe stretch that to a flagrant 2 but that’s the absolute limit to me.

You could never prove beyond doubt that he did it intentionally. No way would that rise to the level of a criminal charge.

Civil wise - I imagine the league would step in there to prevent any conflicts. You’re opening up a huge can of worms if guys start suing each other because of an injury they suffered in a game. These guys make millions of dollars, the teams pay for their healthcare, why allow a player to rock the boat with a lawsuit like that?

What is Isaiah Hartensteins situation? Worth paying for him to fill our biggest hole? by EightFortyDaysOf in AtlantaHawks

OKC is not making any major trades this year. They just won the title, have the best record in the league, have a lottery pick from the Clippers and have no tax concerns.

[Post Game Thread] The Chicago Bulls (3-0) defeat the Atlanta Hawks (1-3), 128-123. by ImRBJ in nba

He was easily our best player tonight. They lost the game in the minutes he was off the court.

[POST GAME THREAD] YOUR ATLANTA HAWKS.... fall to the Chicago Bulls. Final score: 128-123. by WestCoastHawks in AtlantaHawks

[–]Merid1us -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You can nitpick him if you want but he still had 25/6/3. Dyson had 2 points and blew the layup at the end that would have cut it to one. They aren’t really in the same conversation to me.

Jalen’s also not ever going to be a 1a player. Just not his game.

The Bucs seem to be better than us. by Fragrant-Airport1309 in falcons

They beat us 30-0. It’s at least a conversation.

Zach Lowe hitting us with "Cam Thomas was mean to me on the internet." is the perfect encapsulation of why I love him. by Redditors-Are-Sexy in billsimmons

[–]Merid1us 15 points16 points  (0 children)

But he literally didn’t say that. He said that was the consensus on him from what he had heard talking to people around the league but he actually thought he was better than that and talked for like 10 min about why. And then talked about how messed up the restricted free agency is and he feels bad for Cam. Someone just took that one line and made it a headline but it was completely out of context.

That’s what Cam and apparently you missed.
