I can't believe we're taking about this rubbish.

What is hard to understand? JJ has to take the effort to specifically go and take down the post supporting Kyle. It doesn't happen by accident. It isn't small, there is something here and to dismiss it is stupid. Forget endorsing Teague, I get that. But it is that he took down the post for Kyle that is scary.

I don't know why everyone is jumping on this guy. What he is saying sounds legit. It may be nothing, but what if something evident develops and something comes to light in the future about Lowry or Johnson not getting along. Then this guy will look like nostra fucking damus.

That story about Masai sitting him down two summers ago, and changing his life by telling him he needed to change his attitude, as nice as that story was, shit like that often doesn't last.
D bag ways? Shit like that doesn't last? Do you even know the whole story? He was NEVER a JR Smith, Ricky Davis, Ron Artest douche bag. He was a head strong alpha dog in his EARLY 20's. His problem was needing to accept that he needs to cool his jets and he doesn't know everything about everything when it comes to winning basketball games. He matured. He realized the error in his ways. Now leave the guy be.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

Lowry has been in MVP conversations this year, and he's been doing it by being the heart and soul LEADER of this team and LAYING HIS BODY on the line night in and night out. The guy brings it and has been nothing short of a true professional and you still got fans of OUR team taking pot shots at him.

Kyle Lowry might end up going down as one of the best leaders the Raptors have EVER had, and one stretch of tough games and people are already stirring the pot. Ridiculous.
Whether there is any bone of contention between JJ and Kyle is another story, but I do find it a little weird that JJ wouldn't also rep Kyle considering they're on the same team. That said, JJ did not look at all like a malcontent last night. Dude was cheering his heart out for the guys on the floor, which is really great to see. If there is any internal disciplinary matter happening, it's probably about something else and I don't think we should speculate on that until there's actual information to discuss.

Although it is conceivable that JJ removing a picture from his social media is reflective of the nature of his relationship with Lowry, my issue is that you are place A LOT of weight on three events.
JJ posts picture
JJ removes picture
JJ post picture of Teague
How many interactions do JJ and Lowry have a day? Even IF the removal of the Lowry's picture and the posting of the Teague picture was a directly result of JJ be upset, doesn't mean that it's a lasting indicator of anything. Anyone whose spent time playing team sports or is married, knows that it's really easy to get upset at teammates/partner but things blow over just as quickly as they start.
Isn't it just as likey that JJ knows lowry is going to make the all-star game and so now wants to make a push for a friend to make it as well?
You can construct a logic and a narrative out of social media posts, but when the narrative and logic are larger than the information you have that supports its, you're going to have a hard time convincing me there's something there. Too much extrapolation on too little info.
