    They should be called out just in case they post here as well.

    This thread will at least let fans here know how ridiculous the behaviour can get, so perhaps we won't jump the gun as often. Heck, I don't follow twitter, and I never knew there were so much stupidity there as well.

    He's watchin the Rockets game
    He's insultin our players up
    We're looking for you
    We gon find you
    We gon find you

    Seriously though, it isn't cool to bash your own players, ESPECIALLY after a win that Kyle contributed greatly to.

    kyle keeps retweeting them too. that's annoying as well. why can't he just read them and forget about them. retweeting only makes things worse. its childish.

    Kyle Lowry is the man. His retweets of hater tweets makes him the black Lebron James. :)

    There's something odd about this... aha! Lebron James is never next to a yellow smiley face.

    hey all,

    just wanted to stop by and clear this up - thats my twitter account, yes i was a valedictorian at bellaire 3 yrs ago, and yes i cut my hair and dont look like a monkey, for those of you wondering. I, however, didnt mean any real hate towards lowry. but to be honest, i was definitely frustrated with that shot, as were many of you judging by the game thread. had i had a re-do, i prolly woulda rephrased my tweets, but i didnt really say anything false or tweet a bad word. i apologized to lowry, but again, twitter has its good and bad - the good is that we can tweet to famous people and celebrities we've always been at a certain distance from. the bad is that if we really express what we're thinking, people blow it up. ya, i'll be more watchful on what i "tweet", but i know where i stand as a lifelong rockets fan, and i dont think its necessarily bad for players to know what exactly is at stake. maybe the frustration of this year just boiled over, but hopefully we turn it around. i cant wait for this team to get healthy so that we can go on a run.

    sorry i frustrated some of you,

    kp
