That's fine. But folk in here are acting like they KNEW what the argument was about. So why call out people who "assumed" what the argument was about when they did the same thing. There isn't a single person here that said Dez was trying to rally the team. They thought he was getting in the team's ass just like everyone else. Whether you agree with it or not is irrelevant. We all commented on what we assumed happened. How many people here thought Dez was mad because he wasn't getting the ball and defended him? Those people did the same exact shyt they're accusing others of doing.

Not true breh. There were 2 Dez threads where I was goin heavy in the defense of Dez. I broke down the racial politics associated with the criticism that black athetes face compared to their white counterparts.

I stressed the fact that nobody knows what was said, but you had pundits, analysts and media types bashing Dez and painting him as this bad guy, cancer and troublemaker.

I was arguing back n forth with MFs about this very thing. Only to find out for sure that Dez was in fact uplifting his team.

I listend all day to ESPN/talk radio and the number of radio hosts and callers backtrack and talk with a foot in their mouth afterthey realized how dumb they were in bashing Dez.

I'm not talking about the media though. Yea...they're always going to be harder on black athletes. That's a given. The second this happened all I argued was he was bytching about not getting the ball....and at that point that's what the argument was about. Folk were defending him saying "He should bytch about it".....there was never any talk that he was uplifting the team. That stuff only came up later. If folk said he was uplifting the team before that report came out then I never saw it. Supporters were trying to provide other examples of players throwing tantrums... So it looks like 99% of the people in here thought Dez was bytching. Some thought the bytching was valid...others thought it wasn't. Now some want to act like they knew all along that he was trying to uplift the team when that was untrue.

im shocked some people in the media are ignoring the audio which provides factual evidence about what he was saying, while staying focusing on the other non-audiio portions of his sideline demeanor saying that "those must be the selfish, , demeaning and unnecessary tantrums." truly surprising that one of those media members doing that exact thing is jason whitlock. cant believe it

People talk about Stephen A c00ning but Wilbon's c00ning is just as bad if not worse. His response to the video being released today on PTI was deplorable, the less of him on TV the better.

Yeah, I saw that shyt. Dude couldn't even admit that he was wrong. Kevin Blakistone was keepin it real on Around the Horn tho

Buh. There isn't a single person here that said he was rallying the troops. No one. Both sides "assumed" they knew what was going on... that's all I'm saying.
bruh, you lost on this one.

You came at angle that he should have resolved whatever issue in a humble manner.

It doesn't matter why Dez was screaming. He was't wrong to get emotional on the sideline and the way he reacted was just fine.
