Twitter is not an ideal platform to discuss something like this, especially if it's nuanced and, you know, it's not.

cut and dried, black and white, true or false.

Well, 280 characters, it's difficult.

And that's why I like that we're doing this on the podcast because there is potentially some nuance here.

Well, there's certainly some nuance here, but there could be nuance to simply, is it true or is it false?

And so perhaps that is why it hasn't been addressed on social media.

And maybe he's waiting to talk to, you know, teammates and coaches in person or when he can address it on camera to members of the Houston media.

Maybe that's as soon as I think there'll be a practice today.

If not, there will be a shoot around in Charlotte tomorrow.

I'm sure there'll be a postgame availability.

in which there will be reporters on site, so maybe he wants to do it on camera.

Like, there's a lot of different ways that this can play out, and Twitter, and it's, you know, unless you pay for extra, the 280-character limit might not be the ideal format.

I also enjoy that you brought up the 2017 parallel, because for Kevin himself...

I mean, yeah, that is a pretty apples-to-apples comparison.

People were clowning him like crazy when that story broke in, I think, September or October of 2017.

And he went out and not only won the championship the next year, but he was the NBA Finals MVP for that Warriors team again.

So it didn't affect him.

He was able to tune it out.

Now, folks will say, well, it's different this time because there's active teammates that allegedly were thrown under the bus.

Yeah, that's fair.
