everyone tweeting about the play of the grizzlies understand that they are young black men who reside in this same city that this all transpired in. it’s draining, it’s damaging & it is insanely hard to emotionally grasp. i cannot fathom what it is like for them… they are human.
@hakymaqua You can just tell that they are only kind of present...I'm watching because they're playing, but I really don't think they should've had to.
@hakymaqua And being just miles from where George Floyd was killed. I'm white, and I wouldn't be able to concentrate playing like this
@hakymaqua This is nonsense. Nobody thought this about the Yankees or Mets or Knicks in the fall of 2001. They've been playing badly for a week. They are missing Bane, Adams, Konchar, and Williams has been atrocious. Maybe that's why they keep losing.
@hakymaqua Excellent point. I wondered if this was affecting them.
@hakymaqua Watched the last half. Listless almost. Glad they get home into their own beds for 2 nights before the next game.
@hakymaqua They’ve been playing badly for a week. I understand tonight
@hakymaqua Grizzlies need a trade...ja can't doit by his self
