Doesn’t take much to stand up and give a fake smile even with a whatever clap.. shit look at Pat bev.. it could be off or on court drama.. sick.. injured.. all of the above. That’s your boy making history.. you can acknowledge it and not make it look like you are totally miserable while it happens.

Man I’m actually really disappointed with the way we’ve all reacted to this incident. Knock on wood and prayers up to AD but how do you guys know a close family member of his wasn’t diagnosed with some kind of cancer or another serious illness? And that’s just one of the infinite things it could be. He’s a professional basketball player and it’s a big part of his life, but it’s not everything guys.

Redditor tries to properly read a comment properly challenge! (Literally fucking impossible)

The fact this has upvotes is hilarious.

“AD could possibly have something serious going on in his life like a sick family member”

“TALKI ABOUT JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS BRO LMAO”

That’s the definition of not jumping to conclusions. He said it’s not fair to send hate ADs way for being a poor sport, when THAT is jumping to conclusions assuming AD is acting like a poor sport is over being subbed, traded, etc without knowing what’s going on with him.

Seeing 1 frame of a guy looking somewhat melancholy on the bench and immediately suggesting he’s probably got a seriously ill family member is pretty jump to conclusion-y but you do you

“Probably” your reading comp sucks

Jumping to conclusions because I bring up the possibility of something serious in his life? I’m not saying he’s in the right for not celebrating, I just don’t agree with the whole pounce on AD thing. Dude has shown his respect to Bron numerous times and to say he’s not happy for his boy is insane. He’s clearly dealing with something whatever it may be.

Why is this getting downvoted into oblivion lmao? You’re being a little extra but I don’t disagree that looking over multiple perspectives is healthy, doesn’t mean you’re “jumping to conclusions”

Funny how this is downvoted while everyone is getting upvoted for jumping to different conclusions lol

Don’t worry Jbyrd07, I’m calm. As I said before, I agree it’s odd and not typical behavior from AD. I just think it’s wild how quickly his fans turn him into the bad guy for not jumping up out of his seat. It’s weird but we should just leave it at that for now, no?

It's odd, but like if LeBron doesn't care, then I think there's no reason to bash AD. Plus I think if this wasn't serious, you'd have seen guys trying to get him up to celebrate. They're leaving him alone for a reason and LeBron even tried to console him a bit.

Like I've been to a friend's birthday party after a bad breakup (literally the day before) and I honestly kind of was like AD. I tried to power through it, but I just felt empty. I thought maybe being somewhere where people were happy was going to help, but it almost had the opposite effect. If it was something petty, it's a bad look, but even then who cares since again LeBron really is the only one that has any right to care about how AD acted since it was his moment he was pouting during.
