“Jaden Ivey should not have called people sinners and been so hateful.” -The push back on here

Some of the IG comments I don’t think he did it in the best manner, but I know he has good intentions.

If you are a follower of Jesus, you are called to preach the gospel (the good news of Jesus dying on the cross for our sins and bringing us restoration to God)

The gospel says ALL men are sinners and NEED a Savior- that Savior is Jesus. This includes Jaden, this includes myself!

Now, if you see a man in a burning building, unaware the building is on fire, and you walk past without alerting him, are you a good person? Of course not, I would argue you are an evil person.

Ivey and EVERY Christian, if you believe what Jesus taught, should tell everyone the gospel message. If we don’t, then we are hateful. The gospel is GOOD news that saves someone from an eternity away from God (Hell), which is torture because all good things come from God and we are designed to be near Him in Heaven.

Don’t let people spin this and call a man trying to help people and save people as evil. Listen to his own words, his message was always rooted in love 🙏🏻

If you’re Muslim and have Arabic on your jersey, the sports world praises you.

But if you’re a Black man in the NBA who follows Christ, you get canceled in a heartbeat.

Wild.

Yet the league wont or their teams wont release Anthony Edwards saying a homophobic thing in a video, gives women beaters plenty of chances, a guy who acts like he waves guns is still in the league. Has a gambling problem, but free speech is an issue because he mentions the Bible

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

The Chicago Bulls are waiving guard Jaden Ivey after his recent anti-LGBTQ comments amid several rants on religion and other topics, sources tell ESPN.

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

@x_WolfMan_41 Miles Bridges beat women, Anthony Edwards literally said a homophobic thing on a video and they’re still in the league. Crazy…

[BrickCenter @BrickCenter_]

There's no such thing as traveling in the NBA anymore.

Jalen Green took SIX steps in a 1-point game with 25 seconds left... no call 😭

@mollyinsix I grew up mostly with the red and green so it’s my favorite. I became a Bucks fan during the last year of green and purple so it’s good but I love the green and red. I like the new one and the colors. They’re very solid.

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

@LegionHoops @adam_talkshow @TheNBABase Not saying Giannis wouldn’t of still been amazing. But the Bucks had something not many other teams could do with him. Letting him play instantly. The bucks were bad and they could let him develop and play instantly and let him figure out the NBA.

@ohnohedidnt24 @natfluential If players today are bigger, faster and stronger than ever, why can’t they handle the same 82 games players did for decades?

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

The NHL doesn’t complain about them playing 82 games a year🤷 this just seems like he’s whining about it. The league has been a 82 game schedule since the 67-68 season. Get over it.

[Oh No He Didn't @ohnohedidnt24]

Steve Kerr:

"We need to play fewer games. We need to take 10 games off the schedule. The modern game with the pace and the space I think it would be a more competitive and healthier league if we played fewer games"

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

@Sam_Vecenie I think the biggest thing when you watch old games is the lack of spacing and big men being able to shoot/make plays. My favorite era was the mid 2000s-2010s but the spacing in today’s game is insane. Then defenders could just sag off of big men at the perimeter. Now you can’t.

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

Dude Acuff is such a dawg bro. Idc id pick him top 5. Id take him top 3 if I needed a guard. I don’t think the NBA is not going to phase him.

[Frankie Vision @Frankie_Vision]

Darius Acuff Jr. vs Texas..

28 PTS (8-15 FG, 4-6 3PT, 8-10 FTs)
13 AST
3 REBS

ATP Who is a better PG in the Country??

@EtanBoss @TheDunkCentral @EricPincus He wasn’t tho. Jrue was getting older and they were asking him to score 15-20 a night while guarding the other teams best player.

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

My thing is, would he try this in the NBA if he wanted out? He’s talented, should still go high in the draft.

But what happens in year 3 if the team sucks and he wants out? You gonna sub yourself out of NBA games too?

[NBACentral @TheDunkCentral]

Members of teams in the mix for the No. 1 pick say they wouldn’t take Darryn Peterson with the No. 1 pick 😳, per @TheSteinLine

“Says at least one top talent evaluator whose team will be in the mix for the No. 1 overall pick via the draft lottery in May: ‘I wouldn't take [Kansas' Darryn] Peterson with the first pick. Too many question marks.’”

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

@AlexanderTrunn1 @BucksLead We have a first round pick. It’s a swap so if the pelicans get a better pick than the bucks in the draft they won’t swap it. If the Bucks get a higher pick than the pelicans, the pels will swap it. The best the bucks can do is number 2 in the draft. Either way Bucks get a frp

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

@niyetsel I’m sorry but as a Christian you can’t just type some numbers and collect a miracle. That’s not how things work. Also how do we know that this blood moon is going to be the one when we’re very close to Jesus’s return? It could be when a blood moon isn’t even supposed to happen.

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

Good pass from Rollins to AJ 👌

[Dakota @LetsTalkBucks17]

@homiesloveryan @philfanacc If this report is true then it might just happen before the deadline.

[Opp Pack Giannis @OppPackGiannis]

What teams would have an interest in Julius Randle?

Because there is literally no reason the Bucks would want Randle in a post-Giannis rebuild.
