Like an all time great player, they were amazing when they played, but you do not want to listen to them talk about basketball at all, because everything they say is so stupid

      This was one of Magic’s tweets on opening night that people clowned him for;

      The Nuggets entire starting five scored in double figures in their 119-107 win vs. my Lakers. They were led by their MVP center Nikola Jokic, who finished with a 29 point, 13 rebound and 11 assist triple-double. He had help from Jamal Murray, who added 21 points.

      To us this is the most obvious shit ever. His tweets aren’t meant for us though. He is one of the biggest ambassadors for basketball around the world. Here in Sweden I would say he is easily top 5 known players. It’s not a stretch to think there are many who follow him that aren’t very knowledgeable about basketball.

      If you listen to him speak he doesn’t come across as a dumbass at all. He is intelligent and well spoken. I mean… he was a GM. Pretty terrible sure, but a GM nonetheless.

      He’s just keeping it simple for everyone who doesn’t breathe baskeball like we do.
