Can’t link the tweet directly because Kyle Kuzma himself isn’t an approved account but here’s the link to his tweet: https://twitter.com/kylekuzma/status/1727710817640931481?s=46&t=fF2m8uUhUYtOpmLXwXxffQ
Great look from the other face of Washington’s franchise, publicly supporting good guy Miles Bridges after all that he’s gone through recently (one felony count of causing harm to a parent of a child and two felony counts of child abuse)
It’s important to remember these guys r most of the time jsut rich ass holes who don’t care about anything of significant that forces them to challenge their views. Bridges to many is a friend and most of the league is not gonna betray this ‘brotherhood’
They’ve known each other way before the league. They grew up playing at the same y.
So at what point is the line drawn to cut off someone you knew way before the league and grew up and played at the same Y with because clearly pleading no contest to one felony count of causing harm to a parent of a child and two felony counts of child abuse isn’t it.
Most men tend to mind their own business regarding other peoples domestic situations
Kyle Kuzma is not an approved account. Mods cmon
Time Adam Silver started bonking these chumps in the head on live TV. No way these guys are making more money in a year than I’ll ever make in my lifetime playing basketball while abusing and having sex with children.
Miles Bridges must be the most charismatic Motherfucker alive
The wife and child beater.
What miles bridges did was horrible, disgusting, shitty, and honestly he shouldn’t be back in the league.
But are his friends (Kuzma is his childhood friend) just supposed to abandon him? Friends are supposed to be the ones that hold you accountable when you fuck up, but that doesn’t mean abandoning you.
Miles bridges hitting a woman doesn’t equate to him not being allowed to have friends and loved ones ever again.
Yeah it does fam. Hold your friends accountable. He didn’t just lay hands on a woman either, it was the mother of his children in front of his children. Scum, giving him anything before he does any healing to loved ones himself is just enabling behaviour
I mean in a normal world it actually does mean you get black balled from friends maybe not family but friends don’t owe you anything.
If he was his actual friend and not just an enabler he would hold him accountable and given that he has refused to even atone for what he did and continued to terrorize the mother of his kid, as a friend, I would stop being his friend. I wouldn’t want to be associated to this kind of piece of subhuman garbage.
I hate this logic, why is it on me to make someone else better.
I mean that’s fair but at the same time I think it’s fair to ask at what point do you draw the line? Especially in this case where the abuse wasn’t a one time thing and he went and violated the restraining order right after. It doesn’t feel like he’s really taken any steps to change or make a positive difference which is tough to do when it seems like the league and his friends are just enabling him by acting like it’s no big deal.
This would cross the line for me easily especially since Bridges hasn’t really shown any signs if contrition but I can get behind that guy’s take on a general level.
But in Kuzma’s case, if you’re taking what Bridges did seriously and holding him accountable, you’re also not publicly tweeting “special” “fam” “brother” “love” “❤❤❤❤” to him while he’s in headlines for domestic violence and child abuse.
I don’t think anyone can read this tweet and honestly believe that is the scenario here.
Says you?
Maybe kuzma sees a lifelong friend who might be in a dark place right now and thinks some unconditional public love from familiar faces might be exactly what Bridges needs to avoid slipping into an even darker place.
Idk, but neither do you. And casting these type of judgments when you literally do not know WTF is going or the nature of people’s relationships is super weird.
If Kuzma takes what Bridges did seriously he knows the message that tweeting gushing love to an unapologetic domestic abuser and child abuser sends.
Come on man, if Bridges had shown any signs of contrition this would be different. Instead he just committed more violence in front of his child. We can judge Kuzma for this with the available info.
What’s super weird is that you don’t have the wherewithal to understand that a public figure showing public support for a wife abusing, child abusing piece of gutter trash is always a bad look. It’s not overly judgmental to think that, pretty normal actually.
Or he’s just showing love to his boy after a game of basketball
He’s showing love to his boy who’s a piece of shit
You realize that when someone becomes a “public figure” they don’t just have some magic switch that goes off in their brain that now causes them to view every single action they take thru the lense of being a “public figure”, right?
Basketball players don’t just all of a sudden think to themselves “oh I’m a public figure now so I should speak to my friends differently than I did before because people might take some message the wrong way”
Then text him? Kyle “young socialite” Kuzma is a man who loves attention and is fully aware that he has a ton of eyes on his tweets. You’d have to be a grade-a idiot to believe that he isn’t aware of the attention his social media gets. What’s more likely- that Kuz is legitimately dumb enough to forget that the public can see his tweets, or that he’s dumb enough to not realize this was a bad look?
Yeah, pretty obvious.
What steps would he have to take to make it right in your eyes
Just about anything other than immediately violating his restraining order to throw pool balls at his victims car and further abuse her in front of his children probably would’ve been a good start.
I don’t think it’s that hot of a take to day he’s pretty far from redemption at this point. We’ve all seen with Mike Vick what someone can do if they actually want to take steps to try and atone for their past.
These nba players can’t fucking read the room if they tried.
This just in person supports friend
yall friends with wife beaters?
Ain’t they both flint boys? Whatever.
lmao redditors and twitterheads need to get a fucking life
The nba is a fraternity for basketball players, this isn’t surprising
Kuzma has always been a shithead. No one should be surprised.
welcome to reality folks we don’t give a shit about these stuff, just play ball
Man, did Bridges save the life of half the NBA’s loved ones or something?
Why do they love this mothafucka so much?
Is there something they know about his situation that we don’t?
