Alright, so let me tell you about this crazy thing that happened when I was digging into some NBA stuff. You know, just casually scrolling through, looking for some interesting stories, and boom, I stumble upon this weird thing about Jason Kidd, Thon Maker, and an iPhone. At first, I was like, “What does an iPhone have to do with basketball?”
So, I started reading more and more, trying to connect the dots. Apparently, Thon Maker, who played for the Bucks, had an Android phone. No big deal, right? Wrong! It turns out that because he had an Android, he couldn’t be part of the team’s group chat on iMessage. Yeah, you heard that right. I mean, I get it, iMessage is cool and all, but excluding someone from the team’s communication because of their phone choice? That’s a bit much, isn’t it?
I kept digging, reading different snippets here and there. Some folks online were saying that maybe Kidd was just joking about the whole iPhone thing, you know, like, “Hey Thon, get an iPhone, or we’ll make you run extra laps!” Or maybe they were already running laps, and Kidd just used the phone thing as a funny excuse. Who knows? It’s all speculation.
But then, I found this other piece saying that “little things were made to be a big deal.” And the example they gave? Thon Maker not having an iPhone. I mean, seriously? It sounds like they were making a mountain out of a molehill. I’ve seen some comments online like, “That’ll teach Thon Maker for going for the Android instead of an iPhone.” Come on, people, it’s just a phone!
Then, to add more fuel to the fire, I stumbled upon a comment calling Jason Kidd a “dumb abusive asshole.” Whoa, that escalated quickly! This person was talking to a Hawks fan who actually wanted Kidd as their coach. And this guy was like, “Why would you want that?”
So, here’s what I did:
- Started by just casually browsing for NBA stories.
- Stumbled upon this strange connection between Jason Kidd, Thon Maker, and an iPhone.
- Read various online snippets and comments to piece the story together.
- Found out that Thon Maker’s Android phone excluded him from the team’s iMessage chat.
- Discovered that some people thought Kidd was just joking, while others thought it was a bigger issue.
- Realized that this seemingly small detail about a phone was blown out of proportion.
- Saw some pretty strong opinions about Jason Kidd’s character.
- Concluded that the whole situation was a bit ridiculous and overblown.
Honestly, the whole thing seems pretty blown out of proportion to me. It’s just a phone, for crying out loud! But it’s a good reminder that sometimes, the smallest things can create the biggest dramas, even in the world of professional sports.
It also makes you wonder about team dynamics and how something as simple as a phone choice can cause such a stir. I guess it’s a lesson in how important communication and inclusivity are, even if it’s just about being in the team’s group chat.
In the end I was just sharing this wild story with you all, I will keep up with more interesting stuff I find.
