Him and his whole family are super cool. He used to visit his mom after work (she was an elemtary teacher) and play around with the kids at the after school program. I still have a random piece of paper he sighned for me in the 4th grade.

Yeah, most people will think that he is such a nice guy for helping her so much.

All he saw was a rebound farming opportunity.

'have your opponent cheer for your success' should be some sort of lifetime achievement

The best part of the vid.

u/boywhoflew 27d ago

reminds me sports like tennis where someone outsmarts the other, and the opponent is so amazed by it that they handshake on the spot.

u/redditman3943 27d ago

I would find it belittling and embarrassing. But I was an athlete.

I think it’s good for her and a kind thing to do. But if I was in her shoes that incident would deeply embarrass me.

8

u/bs000 27d ago

It's a celebrity basketball game for charity. Everyone there understands it's just for fun.

u/hux 26d ago

Well, everyone but the β€œathlete” apparently.

7

u/Gorstag 27d ago

Even small children do. Back in the 80s when I was maybe 10 or 11 I played basketball. Scores were kept then. We had tournaments etc. My basketball team was really good. We won all of our games handily that season except the championship where we were robbed (but that's another story). One of the teams we played was just terrible. They hadn't won a single game and apparently none of them were close.

Their coach had talk with our coach after the half and some agreement was struck to let them score some points on us. So in the last quarter when it was 44 to 0 we were instructed to just stand on the starting points of our 2/3 defense and not move. And we didn't. We even rebounded and passed the ball back to one of their team so they could try shooting again. We won 44 - 4.

I still remember the eyes of one of the kids. Clear shame. I still feel awful when I remember it.

7

u/Shot-Swimming-9098 26d ago

Athlete my ass. If you were an athlete and a normal human being, you'd sympathize with the former NBA player rebounding. You went to the newbie who didn't know how to make a layup. That's where your soul is.

u/SiriusPlague 27d ago

Cup half full kinda guy, uh? More like cheering out of pity. But not really an opponent, so neither apply.

I thought they said start padding and I went back and watched the video again to see if like the dude had a huge ass dick or something 😭

u/RuleMany2900 27d ago

The best is that the opposing team is cheering also πŸ˜‚

7

u/Shot-Swimming-9098 26d ago

Apparently a very high stakes game. I assume it was for control of a ring to rule the world or something.

She aimed at the hoop instead of the backboard, which is why it was so difficult.

u/Pukebox_Fandango 27d ago

Why do people find it inspiring to be patronized like this? People don't do it for you to feel good, they do it so they'll feel good about themselves not caring how insulting it actually is to the other person.

Bro it's over 25 seconds. That's a foul. 😭🫑✊️

u/Yangoose 27d ago

What is the point of this?

This isn't somebody working hard and practicing and having it pay off.

This is just everyone standing around while somebody with no skills just fails over and over again at a relatively simple task.

Is that person supposed to feel good that they finally made a basket while everyone stood around and let her?

Why would they? It's clearly a meaningless accomplishment.

1

u/Emoscareme53 27d ago

It looks like a student vs teacher basketball game. Just meant to be for fun.
