i think its more that their different skill sets?

Kai saying he can do pull up jumpers better than Mark and is more assertive offensively with the ball than Richards. Not saying he's better. I dunno, he should get off social media though. its a cesspool at the best of times and he's not helping.

i hope the "spiritual journey" he's on helps him.
I didn't read it that way.
Kai seems to have a massive ego.
In his teal haired brain, he thinks he's better because he can make 3s or run faster, jump higher...
But yeah, dude needs to get off social media yesterday.
Why is he engaging trolls?

Because I'm an NBA fan and was curious what Charlotte fans had to say about Kai Jones. It sucks that fans have to deal with this but you guys have done well. Hopefully Ball/Miller/Lotto Pick in 2024 can fully right the ship.

if he truly thinks he's better now than Mark and Richards, i dont think he's every going to get it. he's a dumb, uber athlete, put him a lesser league where can jump over lesser athletes and he will be great. I can't see him getting NBA.

if it was somehow true and Kai did turn into a hall of famer in 1 offseason of meditation and self belief, I'll join the closest church and thank god for the miracle.

honestly the more outlandish the claims get, the more I'm okay with it because i KNOW he doesn't mean it and he's just **** around.

Is it stupid? Absolutely. But I like it more with him saying he'd take LeBron, than just dissing the centers he's trying to overtake for minutes. He still shouldn't be doing any of this though

I'm also leaning towards Kai just taking the piss when replying to randos on social media. Talking about owning Lebron and Shaq gives it away, he's just being an edgelord.

Still not the most mature behavior, but less concerning than it initially appeared.

I think he's taken an odd approach to the whole believe in yourself and you can be the greatest mindset. He's coming across as foolish and arrogant and a maniac. The one thing I always thought would give him a chance to break out was his positive attitude but this is just plain concerning. Now, if he doesn't show progress and can't contribute there is absolutely no reason to keep this circus show going.

between his twitter, IG and tik tok, dude must be posting 100 times a day. 15 on twitter today, plus like 15 reels on IG... this is funny now, but won't be cute come December when we are on a 5 game losing streak.

It just shows how immature the guy is. He's clearly not got the mindset or maturity to make it as a professional athlete.

He should be in the gym improving his game, I know if I'm just about in the rotation and a third center I'd be working my ass off to improve my overall game, as in his case his jump shot and 3pt shot

He could post all he wants as long as it's clips of him working on his game. Hope it's just Kai being young and dumb.
