The dude's a religious lunatic who thinks his "miraculous" recovery is part of God's plan or some nonsense. He's irrational by definition. I wouldn't put too much stock into anything he says. He's just trying to make a ty metaphor comparing basketball games to actual war. Apparently, he doesn't realize that he completely trivializes the deaths of our nation's military members by doing so.

Can not believe this dumbass says something like this around memorial day.. you play basketball and get paid millions for it, what kind of warrior are you talking about?

[rascal]

If the spurs can't beat the Thunder with Ibaka playing healthy then they don't deserve to go to the finals.

It's disgusting. The utter lack of empathy and breathtaking arrogance is astonishing. Apparently he thinks the omniscient creator of the universe cares more about healing his calf for a basketball game than saving the lives of innocent people who die every day at the hands of natural causes. Some people like to bring up Plantinga's famous (or infamous) free will defense for the so called "problem of evil" which is why I'm careful to cite only natural causes here where free will does not apply (actually, the notion of free will is dubious to begin with, but I'd rather not open that whole can of worms right now...)

Now, Ibaka is comparing his "warrior spirit" for playing basketball through an injury to our nation's wonderful military men and women. What a ing travesty. Our military people are literally out there risking their lives to ensure our freedom. Ibaka is putting a stupid ass ball in a basket.

I think this ''warrior' thing is becoming a big time narrative for the OKC press. During the practice presser today, this one guy was asking virtually everybody on the Spurs team and coaching staff "what do you want to say to someone who has had so much 'adversity' in his life…you know, lots of war in the Congo when he was growing up, not really knowing even today if he has 18 or 20 brothers and sisters".

They asked virtually everybody that. Pop of course praised the guy to high heaven (always a classy response about another person), all the Spurs were quick to say how good he was, but god love Manu…


Manu said something like:

I have great respect for anyone who has been through adversity and some of us don't know what that is...but being down 0-two is NOT adversity."

I just absolutely loved it!
