Eh who cares. He probably didn't think it through when he gave such an idiotic response
Tho OP's so sensitive wishing this scrub a bad career tbh.![]()
Dude's not even first round material. I might be annoyed if he was a first rounder but we're talking perma-dleaguer here
The big mistake here is the player giving this irrelevant information to a professional who makes a living creating drama out of thin air.
At first I thought this meant he didn't want to play for SA at all. But whatever he feels is best to communicate with him so be it.
Spurs probably won't give him another thought unless they really want him.
*yawn*
If he's going to enter into a business partnership with a team — this is employment, after all — he needs some assurances that his bosses will respect some aspects of his privacy. He's setting limits without refusing any communication of any kind.
It may seem odd to deny the Spurs' request given the standard NBA operating procedure, but Thomas has merely expressed a very basic human need for respect. It might hurt his chances at being drafted, but at least he's willing to stand up for his principles.asking for your cell # is lack of respect & violates someone's privacy?
what if the organization's policy is "don't call me. I'll call you?"
this idiot
Thomas is a moron tbh. He's a D-league player, or 14th man on an NBA team.
He said if they want to draft him, they can have it. And then he gave them his email.
I don't see the big deal unless the Spurs are the only team he refused to give his number to.
I havent heard about any other teams mentioning Thomas didn't give them his Cell number. I'm sure the Spurs will hit up Thomas' email if they decide to take him on draft night[rolls eyes.] Get real.
No stories of other teams complaining about not getting his phone number.
If he's a projected second round pick, there is no urgency to call him on draft night.
Even if he's a first round pick, so they don't call him before his name is called? So what? Is that a catastrophe?
If he's picked, he's picked. I'm sure someone at the draft will get the two parties in contact with one another.
You tell a potential employer let alone the Spurs organization, "No," to your cell number? Who the do you think you are if you're Thomas? He's projected to go in the 2nd round if that. Does that happen in the job market at any level? no. Have you ever heard about this sort of thing in pro sports history? no! Like I said earlier, the guy is a moron.
This story wasn't about the Spurs complaining about not getting his phone number.
Maybe he has played it by the rules so far and he doesn't have(can't afford) a cell phone?
I really dont see how this is news??
My employers dont have my Mobile number!
Dudes right, you cant jus go around givin your number out & like he said said “Now if they want to draft me, I’d be happy to give it to them.”
It'd be a mistake if the spurs drafted him anyway. His CEILING is draymond green
Well its his phone number
If he doesnt want to give, its his damn right
Pop don't tweet, and he don't email
