    Why does the amount of money they make matter?

    If somebody says something insulting, expect for them to be insulted back. Just because they are poor doesn't give them a special pass.

    It is not a big deal if he is rude to somebody, but it is a big deal if his head is not in the right place to be a great player, which is what a lot of people have said about him.

    That person said, "your jersey costs $30. Kobe's jersey costs $100" which isn't very insulting.

    Its all about context. There's being factual, and then there's just being a complete asswipe.

    He doesn't get a free pass whether he makes $1 mil or $1.
    I've never understood this. Just because someone makes $1 mil we're going to start treating the guy unethically and stop sympathizing for him? In most cases, its not their fault they are rich. Blame the system, not the man. I've seen this logic applied everywhere and its ridiculous. Someone could shoot one of these millionaire athletes dead and I swear in at least every one of these cases there is some jackass saying something like:
    "You know, this is a tragedy. I almost feel bad for him, and then I realized he makes more than me."

    Not if said athlete is a complete scumbag then by all means direct your ether towards the man, but this is not really the case. Just a bunch of morons on twitter than talk **** because they know that Dwight isn't going to do anything about it.

    My first post on clutchfans

    This reminded me of a couple of running nba jokes from the early 80"s

    Q: What do you call four white dudes around one black guy?
    A: the Boston Celtics

    Q: What do you call four black dudes around one white guy?
    A: The Los Angeles Lakers

    Always easier to spot the odd man out

    Legit though the guy with the green trim was Jeremy. But throwing out the shocker like that? Kinky.

    josh fan (far left) hasn't changed since high school. still a d-bag. not sure why jeremy hangs out with him and has him as his "strength trainer". dude in the green trim is his little bro, Joseph.
