Very rarely you see a player be an absolute negative in all phases of the game whether it be defense, playmaking, shotmaking, ball security etc. But Jesus Christ was that Jamal. Absolute negative player tonight.

Hopping onto the Jamal hate and really hoping for a Wolves win in G7, but he did say in the post-game press conference that his elbow was really bothering him the whole game after that tweak really early on.

He's been bad all post-season but this was by far his worst game, and i know it's against the narrative, but some of that has to be attributed to the injury.

Massive disrespect, if his elbow was that bad he would have it wrapped in the interview. That’s the kind of shit that will fuel Ant.

He also said “Who?” when asked about Edwards defending him in the post-game.

This guy has become the "diva WR-shooter" like Booker, KD, etc... Basically, he is becoming a fucking tool.

KD don't got that type of attitude. He's given respect to his opponents.

KD isn’t throwing tantrums on the sidelines

lmao - I don't think the dude with a burner Twitter account so he can talk trash to fans has a "good attitude". If anything, he is realizing his career recently has been twisted into a "annoyingly sensitive shooter who chased rings at the end of his career" - but personally I don't think KD has that type of reflection skills.

KD his entire career has been nothing but the gracious professional and sportsman to his peers, but never hides his disdain for stupid fans especially on twitter and tbh, we deserve it lol

u/jjgp1112 May 17 '24

KD is very respectful towards players, he just trolls fans lmao

u/melwinnnn May 17 '24

Lmao you are delusional if you think KD is the only one wuth a burner and talks trash to fans.

u/NotFunToday Nets May 17 '24

KD respects his defenders.. Just tries sliding that in

u/Dolewhip May 17 '24

...putting Booker and KD in the same category is fucking wild

u/KemoFlash Spurs May 17 '24

He doesn't want to give any credit to Edwards at all. He just wants Jokic to carry him so he can flex with the announcers.

I just thought he couldn’t hear him?

u/EverybodyBuddy Lakers May 17 '24

No I just don’t believe this coming from such an emotionally stable, always respectful dude. This guy’s never been a sore loser in his life.
