I have defended your takes on countless occasions, even when I didn’t fully agree with them, because I felt they were being misrepresented. I stuck up for what I thought was fair in those situations, as I am doing today.
You attacked me with that gif. You’re not “listening” to me. You’re accusing me of being negative.
Others are straw-manning my nuanced opinion (which isn’t even complicated, yet seems difficult for some of our best to understand) and putting words in my mouth.
I am not being negative. I am being truthful about my reactions to what’s happening. People are free to disagree, obviously. I’m not backing down. Without the move you and I both are hoping for, I’m NOT going to be happy with the off-season. Period. If you are, that’s cool.
Are you saying that I must agree with others’ opinions or risk making this place less fun? If so, I’ll happily go.
1) My gif had nothing to do with you. I wasn't even responding to you. I was responding to ONE line from another poster about there being a LOT of speculation going on. That's it.
2) I do appreciate your reading which is why I was surprised by your characterization of me just being a flip flopper who didn't hold an opinion.
3) My frustration with the endless negativity is NOT you man. I know you have the maturity to hear my frustration so I said to you, but it is NOT in reference to you.
4) When I have ever claimed everyone needed to agree? All I care about is people NOT mis-characterizing other's positions AND mis-characterizing the Mavs front office and their decisions.
