Not at all. Aside from authentic jerseys being ridiculously over priced, team employees should never insult or mock paying customers promoting your colors/brand, even if it's fake.

I couldnt agree more. these things are just mesh and stiching. they mark them up like $99, $149. its absurd. not to mention its probably being made by an 8 year old un eurasia somewhere.

I've bought a ton of knocks offs that are indistinguishable from the real thing (it probably IS the real thing, they just produce more and sell it on shady sites for 1/10 the cost cause thats still a big profit).

But like you said. dude paid money to come to the came, paid for apperarly. shouldnt be clowning him. he is the reason you are employed

Wall been looking solid out there. Of course he's not worth contract he signed but that his market price. All star caliber players always get overpaid.

And there's this thing. No doubt KD is a unquestionable leader of this team, he'd set the tone and huge part how players approach game. Not having him hurt us a lot.

That Miami schedule is brutal. I can see them going 0-7, I'm mean just look at that team. Something ain't right and that team is not clicking on all cylinders like last year.

Kemba is washed up now officially. His wheels came off, add the fact he's undersized guard and it's not what you looking for. Losing Hayward was huge.

We are elite with KD, but he has been hit with two COVID protocols now this season. He needs to show some leadership, wear his mask when around other people outside of the court, and be available. The fact that he hasn't been able to play hurts this team.

Saltics fans have a meltdown and it looks like civil war is inevitable. They just have to figure out who's their target they all can agree on. Danny and Brad from what they saying should be on a hot seats.

Enjoyed it a little today lol.

If anyone will bring milage on KD or Kyrie let me know so I can laugh in your face for being dumb azz. Cherry on top if you post your pick. Both of them saved about three years for sure.

Walker's TS is 49% on the season. I can only imagine the outrage from the media if Kyrie said this while playing that poorly.

I haven’t heard much about Kemba since the bubble. In fact, I do quite frankly believe I read Ainge tried to shop him to everybody to land some form of assets to get Holiday and shed Kemba and it didn’t work.

I’ve heard Kemba was a better player and point guard for Boston than Kyrie Irving. How’s that working out?
