KD still arguing with fans online
I saw posts like this yesterday, definitely talking about people like them:
A lot of people give KD shyt for going on social media, but at the end of the day dude makes sense the mass majority of the time.
That's the funny part, but people don't want to hear it and are being dense.

“Boy I tell you” “almost” “it took”Boy I tell you, a win lets people feel a lot more comfortable with being an idiot.
A team of LeBron, Steph, KD, Embiid, AD, etc…..almost lost to Jokic and fukking Bogi Bogdonavich and yall in here talking about Serbia choked and all this nonsense.
It took LeBron having a triple double and Steph putting up 36 points to beat 2 players and some folks who drive Uber for a living.
5 golds in a row.

Ain’t no such thing as almost.. A win is a win no matter how it comes… just show respect to the 3 goats of the decade… They put the USA on their backs nuff said… also the level of comp globally is good for the game of basketball regardless it’s why we have generational freaks like Wemby who is literally a 7’4 KD
It’s insecurity breh… And it’s rooted in the money…. It’s like what logic did Lyle’s have and trying to shyt talk USA men’s basketball team… These nba players the best in the world in terms of basketball for a fukkin ReasonJokic is right there with Jimmy Butler as my favorite player in the league right now. But I gotta support KD 100%. The way people root blindly and passionately for all USA Olympic athletes but always find a rationalization to root against USA Hoops is disgusting.

They be linking everything to Kobe lol shyt kinda outta hand at this pointI'm sorry, but kats could post a picture of them having Cordon Blèu and níggas would be like, "That was Kobe's last meal"
"Mamba Mentality"

It’s why so I’m happy they came back. The racist dog whistling would’ve been out at full force
Serbia is in the medal games for a reason. This was also the 3rd time they played the USA team. Y’all gotta stop downplaying them. They aren’t the Washington Generals

Been arguing with some of these cacs on Twitter talkin bout they prefer the Euros because they play the game “the right way”. Then I point out the U.S. averages the most assists and you can see their brains short circuit.

Even the US flag can’t Stop Many NBA fans from bringing their toxic baggage into the Olympics. I am literally seeing fans say the same shyt that you hear during every NBA game. The flag provides no cover for NBA players at the Olympics.Jokic is right there with Jimmy Butler as my favorite player in the league right now. But I gotta support KD 100%. The way people root blindly and passionately for all USA Olympic athletes but always find a rationalization to root against USA Hoops is disgusting.

Honestly all I think it is that some the NBA players just aren’t liked by the public
Outside Curry and Bron (was hated a good church of his career) lotta American fans loathe the NBA players; likely a mix of jealousy, racism and arrogance from NBA heads

Im not on any social media, so these opinions dont even surface in my life. Its really a beautiful thing. You will always find dissenting thoughts there, I dont even waste a second on it. I get that its hard to escape if your on twitter, but who cares what that nobody thinks
1st lets address the whole "your take doesnt matter" point.
Arguing with KD on twitter is like arguing with a bird with a million nikkas follwoing her who wanna fukk, you cant win because of their stature, no matter how idiotic the take is. He doesnt even realize his whole career path contradicts his statement.
You say the only opinion/take that matters is of the people in the brotherhood? Who is the brotherhood, the people on team USA? So there are only 12 people on this planet whose opinion matters?
nikka........................
The main reason he left OKC and ran off to GS is because he let the opinion of a bunch of people that apparently dont matter convince him that his career wont mean shyt unless he wins a bunch of titles. So he left OKC to join a team that guaranteed he would win championships. Then he let the same people, again whose opinion doesnt matter, convince him that he needed to leave GS and lead his own team to a title. Thats two instances right there where people whose opinion doesnt matter caused him to uproot and move to another team. Not to mention the reason he is KD, has a signature shoe, has commercials, etc....isnt because the other members of team USA got together and nominated him. Its because regular ass people at the house like him as a player and want to support him. But i guess the only time the opinions of regular folks doesnt matter is when KD decides so on twitter.
2nd the whole rooting against team USA issue he has. Couple things here.......
Bruh, its a classic David vs. Goliath story. Team USA is Goliath, and they will continue to be Goliath as long as NBA players are on the roster. So if you cant handle people rooting against you because they want David to win then dont sign up for team USA.
Also people root blindly for their country in the Olympics because for the most part they only see these events every 4 years and have no clue who the fukk these people are. So they only thing you are rooting for is the country on the uniform. BUT.....................when there are stars out there, for other countries, guess what, they do root for them because they like them. See Usain Bolt, see Shelly Ann Fraiser Price. People even started rooting for that French swimmer who racked up the golds this year. You think people arent going to root for Jokic, Giannis, Luka, Wemby, etc..... especially if they play for their hometown teams? People do know you KD, and plenty of people inside and outside the NBA brotherhood been calling you a bytch for a long time. So they dont want to see you win.
