If people go on a person's twitter or instagram page being disrespectful they deserve to get the same in return.

Yes, but the best way to disrespect someone is to show them that you are completely indifferent to their existence. Arguing does not accomplish that.

He couldn't take the heat, so he not only got out of the kitchen, he burned it down.

I never understand why people need to rip an NBA player as if he's not better than 99.9999% of all other basketball players in the world.

The NBA's "scrub" was probably one high school's best player ever, was dominant in college or overseas, but simply can't go the extra mile and beat the highest echelon of players.

If most people on this forum played Aldridge one-on-one, he'd be the one "dumping" (as you say) on everyone.

pretty clear that LMA is a pretty sensitive dude given some of the stuff hinted at in Portland

will be interesting to see how he reacts in a playoff series against GS

LMA wasn't very active on social media. While he was poor against GS (95% of the team was) he has been really solid on the season as a whole, especially defensively.

Maybe he can push KD out of OKC too.

There were reports from Portland PR people that they were happy Aldridge chose to leave. Apparently, he would do things like back out of advertisements and promotions, but he would be upset when other players would step up to do them in his place. He didn't want the spotlight; but, he certainly didn't like it when the spotlight was aimed at anyone else - which is probably why he felt so threatened by, and was so frustrated with, Lillard.

Look what you just said about a basketball player. Some guy you watch on TV for entertainment. Some guy you don't know and who never did anything to you. Disgusting.

There's a non-zero chance that you're an awful person. Seriously, who talks like this?

No wonder Lamarcus Aldridge ran away from LA, he knew his sensitive little heart wouldn't be able to take the pressure or criticism

lol the number of guys boosting their egos on this forum is ridiculous
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

Or it could be the fact that their team is a dumpster fire and he didn't want to play second fiddle to an over the hill Kobe? :-?

Oh please, Ross was pathetic on social media and was a total joke. Wasn't even like Aldridge got into it with people on social media.

100x yes. There are too many kids& woman/man-children who take sports way too seriously. It's entertainment to keep us masses placated but I guess the hostility comes out towards what we view because the vitrol people spout on Sports figures / Celebrities is insane considering our anger/hostility should be directed towards something more substantial to our own lives then sports entertainment/celebrity.

There's absolutely little to no chance that this Prius dude is a decent / thoughtful person off-line.

If I was in the NBA I would not have a twitter or would do what most do and merely use it for PR/Marketing reasons.

The twitter community (social media in general for that matter) is an extremely vile community.
