But as a grown ass man, he also has to accept the consequences of his actions. Admit he made a selfish choice that backfired, apologize to his teammates, and move on.

This is not a 9 to 5 punch the clock job. In some ways more freedom in some ways less. Tough titty, retire at 36 with hundreds of millions on a 8 month a year gig, expect some sacrifices9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

Look, I think guys should be able to do whatever they like on their spare time. but if I stay up all night and fuck up at my job the next day i would rightfully get a bad rep for it, and so should he.
He might have sucked either way, who knows? but the optics are bad and that's his own fault.
That being said, i find Lewenberg to be a bit of a shit-stirrer, so maybe this isn't that big a deal.Last edited by KHD; Wed Apr 4, 2018, 04:14 PM.

I'm thinking even when he asked they weren't thrilled about it, but it's Kyle "the stubborn mule" Lowry. In back of masais mind probably thought "alright well we're doing you a solid, you better have yourself a good game" and he certainly did not.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum
