    There's a joke about Zion and cupcakes but I can't land it.

    We're not playing #1 seeds like Bucks and Lakers. Nor are we playing champions like the Raptors. I'm not scared of teams like Rockets, Mavs, Celtics, blah blah blah. Playoff teams, yes, but most of the teams in Orlando are. Even with the Clippers, our roster is their nightmare and not the other way around.

    Agree completely. Just like no one should ever have had to explain themselves for kneeling, no one should have to for standing either.

    Personally i don't see the need for the National Anthem being played at all before a game. But that's just me. Sports are entertainment to me.

    Agreed. but if one does explain why, and it's hokey, it makes sense that people will be critical of it.

    According to some around here it could very well be racist.

    but yes. When labeling something like that i suppose i should be clear im joking.

    So twigs are racist but cupcakes aren't? Can you get me a list of inanimate objects with their correlation?

    I guess I missed that part of the story. I mean, if we can't make fun of Felton for eating the entire teams cupcakes before, after and during the games, I'm not sure I have reason to live anymore.

    He said the same to me after I commented I don't like CJ's new 'do any more than I care for man buns on a white dude. He chickened out on explaining how that is racist. Some people just feel better about themselves when casting accusations.

    Jonathan Isaac went down with a left knee injury that looked pretty bad. He had to be carted off the court in a wheelchair and had already been wearing a pretty big brace on that knee. Hope he's alright. Also please refrain from any crass comments about him standing for the anthem.
