Max Strus says Jimmy Butler could treat him like his best friend at dinner, completely ignore him at practice the next morning, then act like nothing happened once the game started.
Strus eventually learned not to take any of it personally.

Mr Tony Elumelu is right.We are https://t.co/hlGwMaG4jo almost all our diverse cultures and traditions,we donโt call our elders or seniors by their first names.Its a form of respect or courtesy.Anyway,the most important thing is the positive impact he is making in the lives of those young people he is interacting with.
@sowore TOE is a brand name that he uses regularly, that's the difference but because you're always looking for a fight even when none exist, made you more reactive than analytic. But I'll still support you in 2027
@JaxiePlanga94@declanstar1 When I said Godts wasn't ready, I wasn't talking about statistics, stop switching narratives. Brobbey was alright but don't make a player who scored 7 goals in a season sound like a unicorn
@JaxiePlanga94@declanstar1 So, if you're in charge of recruiting for a team, you won't look at stats or stats won't appear in the scouting report?? You implied that people said a player wasn't ready and in reality, the player came and smashed it with 7 goals and you're trying to say he wasn't starting BS
@JaxiePlanga94@declanstar1 First up, I'm not a journalist but a fan. The subject matter is Godts, who I have watched extensively. For Brobbey you cannot use him as an example and then defend 7/31 goals, statistics or not. Victor Anichebe used to give defenders hell too, but he had less than 50 career goals
Declare a state of emergency in the Ministry of Youth and Sports in Nigeria. There has been an existing dwindling rot within that system that has to be critically addressed
Draymond Green defends Steph Curry in response to the recent statements made by Monta Ellis and Jeff Teague:
"I didn't necessarily agree with Jeff Teague's statement about Dame either and it has nothing to do with who Dame is as a player. Dame is great, 1st ballot Hall of Famer, special, special, special talent. It has nothing to do with that. It has everything to do with that's just not how you win championships. You don't win championships by 'Ah man, move this player' because there's so much more that goes into it. It's not just the basketball. It's the makeup of the person. How does that guy lead? How does the organization then fall into place with that guy being the face of the organization? It's so many other things that goes into it other than just once you step out there and lace the shoes up and go play the basketball game. So I think these statements are null and void and kind of irrelevant because that's just not how championships work. Championships, they're built over time, demeanor, right? Who's to say Monta Ellis in our locker room of our championship teams, who's to say Monta Ellis and his demeanor and how he acts on the daily and how he show up to work on the daily, would lead to the locker room being the same as it is with Steph at the helm? . . . I think [the statements] also takes away what Steph Curry is as a leader, who he is as a leader. I think it also takes away from that. I just don't love these statements in general because it's a false sense of what winning a championship actually requires and quite honestly, that's just now how it goes."
@na7ural_ By the way, Andrew Wiggins won't be an all-star without Steph. Steph averaged 25/5/6 and secured 3rd spot in the West. Great players make great players of those around them. Gravity and Gravitas
@na7ural_ Andrew Wiggins and who? A retiring Iguodala or Klay who was out for 2 years??? Within this your narrative, Steph never played with an NBA Top 75 players, but has 4 championships.
