Is Kevin Love alienated on team USA?

[jack612blue]

When the starters were subbed out, Kobe Lebron Durant were handshaking and hugging. And Kevin Love is in the background just giving "forced high-fives", no hugs, good game that kind of stuff.

His teammates almost never looks to pass to him as well.

Just noticed Kobe in the background :oldlol: I kind of figured he'd be similarly awkward as Love.

Idk about what goes on with the team personally, but if Kevin Love wasn't getting any respect on the court, he sure will be now. He was great out there. Played much better than i thought he would.

are you suggesting that bron doesnt look like a total dork there? People celebrate in different ways, some people are more stoic (i.e. rose) and some are clowns (i.e. howard). But, bron does look pretty ridiculous in that gif. Is he in a conga line?

[boozehound]

who dont belong? K lOVE :lol
why? Cause hes white? Hes as engaged as kb in that pic. Pretty sure none of them care about race in this, so why should op or you?

[SourPatchKids]

I'm not gonna lie. I'm pretty awkward. But I would be dancing like I'm on fire if I just won a gold medal.

[ProfessorMurder]

I wouldn't be dancing like that. You're on far and away the best team, act like you've been there. I'd just take my medal and get out.

so, him pointing at the camera with a slight smirk/smile is awkward as ****, but bron's meanmug/duckface looks cool does it? or chandler posing like its 1992? pretty clear that the people singling out love are doing so because hes the only white guy on the team

[Burgz V2]

yet the post I responded to had clearly quoted the other pic, so you can see why I would think you were talking about that post (since it was the one you quoted and responded to). And, no thanks, the pipe is quite comfortable and helps my posture.

I'm just reiterating what I've heard here on ISH. Some people here have argued that it's racist to call someone black. Lots of double standards.

[boozehound]

ignorant black guy right here.


how the **** you gonna think its racist cause I mentioned your race and a stereotypical association with that race? da ****?

its not. ppl need to get off that shit and have a sense a humor.

so white people being awkward is stereotypical? since when? only reason i can think of is him being around 11 other black guys

[FireDavidKahn]

its not. ppl need to get off that shit and have a sense a humor.

Hey man, in real life it's not an issue at all. I just hate double standards so much and so much of that shit goes on at this website. :cheers:

fair enough. I dont really think you had racial intent in here, but its pretty clear the OP did. I would like to see the rest of that gif, but it looks like Klove just isnt a dancer.

[KDTrey5]

it was funny tho :oldlol: at least the glimpse of the celebration we got to see

[boozehound]

never seen the white driver comedy bit or the various other white people are dorks/awkward comedy bits? Chapelle would be a good place to start, but its a pretty common comedy theme based on stereotype.

ive seen them, just didnt really think it applies here. but when i think about it, it makes sense.
wasnt trying to be racist, just thought it was funny :cheers:

The new response to "U mad." Someone caption this with "I aint even mad tho."

[Snoop_Cat]

If they made a WET channel (White Entertainment TV), they would be crucified by the media.

[KDTrey5]

imagine if we had rose/wade/howard on that squad

[Cowboy Thunder]

:lol :roll:

[taucesays]

Love is a goofy white dude from Oregon. What do you expect?

[28renyoy]

He's far more intelligent than the rest of the players on the team. Kind of like how a genius feels when he's surrounded by normal people

Lmao your Pissed!

All I said was he looked awkward around dancing black guys. Most white guys look awkward dancing regardless. Don't gotta get upset lol

[LA_Showtime]

I never realized Love was the only white guy on the team.

you are kidding yourself if you think that bron is a good dancer. He looks the fool in that gif IMO. There are plenty of terrible black and white dancers. Besides, my comment you quoted had nothing to do with that.

[jack612blue]

[L.Kizzle]

Hey, Melo isn't dancing either. Check him out behind Harden close to the end of the GIF.

Agenda thread.

In other news, glad the USA won. I love it. Also love how Lebron is always so hyped up after wins. :D

[IGotACoolStory]

Lettuce be cereal, if there's any awkward player on Team USA, the conversation starts and ends with Russell Westbrook.

Love got no Love.

It's probably because Love can't dance.

Harden is next to Melo, do you see that extra hand there? That's Harden hand...

[bdreason]

WTF is Harden holding? Was that added into the GIF?!?

[Joshumitsu]

No, he just chose not to dance. If he had danced, it would've made him fit in with the gif more. It's a camera illusion type thing. Some people will assume he's alienated when he'd simply rather not dance (like D-Rose's non flashy All-Star intro/deadpan expression at Lebron).

Plus, the reason why Love didn't dance was because he was white. He doesn't know how to.

Westbrook looks like he really, really wants to give Kobe a wet willy.

no, it's like one of the olympic mascots or something. no idea why it looks like f'd up teletubby :lol

i like love but this made me laugh:

Theres got to be a small level of madness against him at the minimum.

How can he complain about not getting minutes while the team is winning in the media? Still surprise how ppl don't fry him for that.

[Rockets(T-mac)]

The gif in the OP is freaking hilarious. :roll::roll::roll:

Lebron is such a clown with his dances.

[ukballer]

If anything, it seemed like Iggy was the most alienated on the team, to me.

[steve]

Olympic mascots in general are weird. Check out the last several. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Olympic_mascots)

Because he never complained about not getting minutes?
