    He did nothing for Toronto
    @Jontro
    @Os Trigonum
    They could have saved money and put Drake at third string point guard

    He was trash.

    Toronto wasnt a scrub team where he could play meaningless minutes to pad his stats.

    Mental midget cant handle pressure so he melted like an ice cream in a hot summer afternoon.

    Nurse was smart. He saw how much of a scrub Airemy is but more importantly how much of a mental midget he is.

    Which is why he didnt play Airemy any meaningful minutes in the playoffs even when Van Vleet was struggling early on.

    He would rather put faith in Van Vleet busting out of his slump than risking with Airemy screwing up another his own team in the playoffs, which he has done before. And he was right.

    As for Drake, I wouldnt be surprised if he contributed more to the team than Airemy did lol. Sad but true.

    Toronto did something for him though -- made him one of the most celebrated Taiwanese champions in NBA history.

    Hakeem didn't sign with Toronto to play he just wanted to scout real estate in Canada to bulldoze.

    Noticed Jordan Clarkson enter the game against the Rockets last night.

    I said it back then, when Airemy was playing like trash on the Lakers, that if LOFs are looking for an Asian scrub to worship, Jordan Clarkson might be a better bet.

    Sure enough, Jordan Clarkson is still in the NBA while Airemy is in the scrub league.

    Even a 40 year old geriatric Hakeem on busted knees, and with a back injury, played and contributed in the playoffs lulz.

    Jordan Clarkson is definitely a talented shooting guard. He's just entering his prime years. Is there a thread for him here on Clutch?

    lol Airemy and NHL body checks.

    First of all, Airemy wouldn't even step into the rink. He is too soft. Just watching the body checks from the sidelines would traumatize him.

    Second, even if he did, one body check would be the end of him. He is a mental midget, would get traumatized and never recover from it.

    This is the same guy that never recovered from Pat stealing his starting job and was last seen crying. literally crying as a grown man, when not a single team in the NBA wanted him on their team.

    You expect a fragile chump like this to survive in an ice hockey game? lol

    And let's not even get into how many time he would be turning the puck over.

    Pretty darn amazing that a guy managed to have a relatively successful 9 year NBA career despite being the target of non-stop and over the top insults with unrealistic expectations. The mental toughness required to make it in the NBA is very high, especially when you enter the league as an undrafted unknown and need to prove yourself at every turn. And even after you prove yourself, people still throw the insults for whatever reason. Not sure how Lin "never recovered" from losing his starting job in the 3rd year of his career, but then went on to play 5-6 more years. As far as being able to take body checks, I recall that while on the Rockets, Lin had a reputation for his game elevating every time he got bloodied...can't imagine that Rockets fans who paid attention back then don't remember that.

    lol Mental Midget bounced around different teams. Demoted and rejected by the teams that were good and played for lottery picks on the teams that were not good lulz.

    Teams found out that he is too soft, not good enough, and not fit for the league which is why he never lasted long on any team, and eventually no one wanted him.

    Still remember the dear in the headline look Airemy had in his first playoff game. Mental midget couldn't wait to get out of the court lol.

    Only reason he was able to prolong his stay in the NBA despite not being good was because he was Asian. IF he was not Asian he would have been out of the league long ago.

    Mentally soft + poor handles + bad decision making + too much drama = Scrub Airemy out of the League

    His reputation is that of being a scrub lol

    Jeremy's mental toughness can be traced directly to his Taiwanese heritage -- the independent nation of Taiwan (a close US Ally) produces some of the most determined people on the planet.
