Yeah he’s 100% right. NBA has the most liberal fan base for sure. And as for the picture above, just more reason to love Don.

My God this surpassed the awesomeness threshold of being the superhero he already was. It also gives me the feeling that he is not pro enough on tweet decisions as he is not on shot decisions. I mean what makes you think that you won’t end up in there? Nothing is impossible. But then again dude is just a rookie (rookie-dom is now two years right?) how much more can he give to us? NBA will support this guy until they are convinced that he is not worth supporting.
 
Also, just back to the tweet thing. I’ve noticed a trend, most the

? I mean he’s done it a couple times. I think him not worrying about his tweets give authenticity which is what fans love. He’s smart, he knows what he’s doing.

Nah. Upper middle class. Senior is an MLB middle manager and Mom was a clerk turned teacher. They probably net <$200K

His dad's official title is "Director of Player Relations", so it's probably like <150K since his mom is a private school teacher (they make less than public school). It might be more for inflation in NYC. It's pretty wild how they could afford private school for two kids (which is probably like 80K a year, though it's probably less w/ financial aid that I'm sure is substantial when you're a high level athlete the school wants) and living in NYC.

Funny how some people think that pro athletes should only shut up and dribble. As if they aren’t given first amendment privileges to voice their opinions about anything.

Meanwhile, Trump and his ilk are given platforms to yell about any topic. Often, they spew lies and bigotry. And if they’re corrected or resisted, they’re labeled “fake news” or “intolerant” or “overstepping into politics.”

I think we’re quickly learning who the real snowflakes are. If you look on twitter right now they’re the ones whining about DM. Sad. I’ve already seen far too many jazz fans ripping him. Unbelievable

It’s a damn good thing I don’t use Twitter or any social media other then jazzfanz. Twitter would drive me crazy fighting thousands of idiots
 
Stupid tweet by Trump... what was the purpose. LBJ has been about as good of a superstar athlete as one could ask for on and off the court. Why send a shot so you can call another guy dumb.

I have more traditional Republican beliefs/values, but I won't vote for this guy again. He's a friggin cartoon/internet troll. I hate the two party system and that other good candidates can't get enough support/traction without selling their souls to one of the parties. Please America bring me one candidate I feel I can trust.

Glad DM voiced his tweet... it was super tame for a politically charged tweet.
