There was racial undertones in KD’s ranting there.

Regardless, as Ron mentioned this kind of tipped it for me from “KD is a weird, sensitive fool” to KD needs help. There some sort of issue there. At the very least, someone get that man a PR manager and take his phone away.

Going to be interesting how they handle this compared to Meyers Leonard.

**** Kevin Durant. Nothing new, but that is all.

ETA: P.S. I don't even know who Michael Rapaport is by name, and barely know who he is by picture, so **** him too if he sucks.

KD and Rappaport have got to be friendly with each other. No way this is KD acting out.

KD is one of the best in the world, at what he does. And its obvious. I’m not sure why that is not enough for him. I feel bad that he can’t simply enjoy being an all time great.

I mean I know KD is a little off, but this **** is just insane. If he really is just going off then dude has way more screws loose than I thought, and I thought he had a few.

Lebron has said worse things about jewish people than Myers Leonard did. The league doesn’t exactly yield justice equally.

Magic beat the Clips in LA.

It's hard to feel good about the Bucks atm. :(

Rapaport is literally one of my least favorite people. He's a **** douche who talks so much **** and acts all salty when he gets called on it. A turd is an understatement. He sucks.

But that was some objectively vile **** by KD. He's needs to get TF off of social media. He's too grown to act like a **** preteen online. It's so bad that my first thought was that it was fake.

Knowing that any team can beat another on any given night in the NBA regular season makes you more depressed about our loss?

My first thought as well. You would think given how many times most of us have watch putrid Bucks teams occasionally beat good teams there would be some acknowledgement that basketball is just a very volatile sport. That's why the playoffs are a best of seven. We lost a game to a top 5ish team on the road. It shouldn't need to be said, but we are not somehow transitively worse than the Magic because we just lost to the Clippers. I think it's pretty inarguable that the team has continued to get better over the course of the season when looking at the big picture.

Yeah, absolutely
Well, maybe the TV money might have something to do with it as well.
Actually you know what, it's probably all about the money. Mo games mo money
