DM on AD

AD has had 7 years of hype and adoration. He’s won one playoff series. I’ve seen him mail it in more than anyone else dubbed a superstar.

I’m not rooting for him.

If he goes to LA, then I hope it’s for a King’s ransom. And that it doesn’t work out due to personalities and/or injuries.
This. I hate when guys get hyped who aren’t hard workers. By hard worker, I don’t mean a guy who spends a lot of time in the gym. I mean a guy who gives it his all, has his teammates’ backs, and doesn’t check out when the going gets tough. Guys that have driven me insane the most were TMac dating back to Orlando days and Dwight dating back to Orlando days. Melo too. I was ahead of the curve on those guys. I think when we beat NOP the last time we played them last year and saw AD leave the bench early for the locker room was a huge douche move to his team. The whole attitude is that he’s above other guys. Oh yeah? Win the ****ing game, you douche.
 
Perspective and empathy are not rampant feelings around here.
I think the problem we’re having here are players unable to adequately empathize with regular folk and have that perspective, as evidenced by OP.

Our jobs are the same as there’s, then they belittle our intelligence by saying they are doing this because they want to win, and all of them have the Knicks as a destination they would accept. Yeah okay guys. You want to push your way out of contracts you willingly signed, lie about why you want out of them, and then want empathy and understanding over it. Sure thing. Keep your word on the contracts you signed, don’t belittle my intelligence, and don’t compare my job where I could be let go at any given moment to your 5 years of guaranteed salary and employment, and then maybe many if us won’t look at it so negatively.

Depends on the situation. I have tons of empathy for people. Even got empathy for AD. I'm empathetic for his eyebrows and teeth. I'm not empathetic that the poor guy has to play pro ball for millions in new Orleans for a while longer. Should I be? Are you?

If they were honest you’d hate them more than ever.

“New Orleans is lame and the fans stink, and they suck at team building, I’ll be much happier somewhere else”

“I’d rather play with Brad Stevens in the East in Boston than stay in Utah, suck it up”

“I hated playing with Westbrook, in Golden State I’ll be able to finally win championships and I think that will make me a more happy person.”

Y’all would NOT accept these reasons. So instead they have to belittle your intelligence.

I don’t feel bad for him.

But I can try to understand where his feelings are coming from.

You can be truthful without being an *******. Something you obviously know nothing about. People still mad? Yeah, but more from a fan perspective than a personal perspective when you’re down playing my intelligence by so obviously lying to me.
 
So there is no reason to have a player with giant value because you might have to trade them and get giant value back?

Dont be a moron. That's like saying you wouldnt date the hottest girl in the world because she might leave you (but in this dumb analogy you get like 3-4 other women back when the hot one leaves, so its even more of a no-brainer). Get it while you can and take the risk.

I would take the 3-4 woman. Are they hot too? I have a thing for Korean girls, so one is must.

I have a lot of things I think at work, too, that I don’t say. Where is this going?
 
It would be the same if I was drafted and had to work for a certain employer if I wanted to work in my profession. If a player wants to leave that is up to them. I just hate that they have no fire to earn it themselves instead of joining power squads
