not saying anything like that would happen here...since dude seems to always make a point to explicily shy away from physical confrontation (except for stephen a smith and seattle lol). but the rants def are taking on a less humorous and more 'emotional' tone.

You're asking if they can survive the angry ramblings of a man who's spent the entirety of his adult life as a punchline due to how bad he was at basketball, and finally realized that if he records himself ranting and raving, people will pay attention to him?
What did he say or do that anyone is supposed to be unable to survive?

I don’t have a horse in this race.
But there is a huge difference in regards to someone’s political belief and someone allegedly raping two women, where one of the women was giving Spanish Fly and wasn’t coherent to give consent.
He has a huge point. So when they opened their mouths about that man’s life and family, and spoke about it clearly out of context, that really puts them in a bad light. They don’t even cover sports like that, and it really does paint the narrative of black people degrading other black people, while the white man laughs and make money off all of it.
So they opened themselves up for him to reveal things about their private lives ...The only difference is they have criminal issues associated with theirs.

regarding how people just glossed over the two rape allegations against Charlemagne that occurred some years ago.
Again, why are they even commenting on him? They don’t even know him or cover sports, but out of nowhere they decide to talk about this man’s family and his life? So he is just going back at them over something they started.
Say what you want about his B-ball career or his political belief, but his family? They were totally off base for that. Some stuff you just don’t touch.

12. "RE: well damn...whats the backstory on all this?" In response to Reply # 10 Thu May-20-21 05:24 PM by allStah
Kwame Brown is a former NBA player, who was the first high school player to be the number 1 pick in the NBA draft. His career didn’t pan out the way it was projected, and he was labeled a bust. So a lot of people in sports media, including former NBA basketball players, like to make fun of his career in a very degrading way.
Two former NBA Players, Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes, made fun of him during their podcast, so Kwame Brown responded. That went viral, and that’s when the BC made comments about Kwame’s family.....and that sparked Kwame to vehemently respond to the BC.
And he did go in. They didn’t see that coming.

60. "how is he supporting the republican party?" In response to Reply # 46
i've listened to most of his vids the last 2 weeks or so, i've gone back and watched about 5 videos before this current wave of attention Kwame is receiving. i haven't seen him say he supports the republican party in any way.
69. "Lol @ not knowing how to skim thru a video" In response to Reply # 67
It took me less than 60 seconds to find the videos, and i skimmed thru them for 30 seconds each. In 2021 if you're not savy enough for that, you can't be helped. If you're one of these dumb-dumbs that agree with Kwame's idiotic, right-wing stances, just fucking say that.

those allegations been out there for Char. he's talked about it himself. now if the ladies come back and get some court time, that'll change things.
but Char has is/was on the show sniffing seats after women get up. if they let that fly, amongst the rape stories, and other fowl shit he's said, this prolly won't touch him too much.
Barnes and Jackson are trying to get Kwame on the show, but I doubt he'll do that. now that would be entertaining.

22. "yeah.. this is the stuff that usually helps their show" In response to Reply # 15
more people tune in hoping to hear a response.
wouldn’t be surprised if they end up interviewing him on the show for ratings.
but I didn’t listen and have no idea how far he went with it.

25. "He's hurt??? KwaMAGA? Y'all crazy as fuck" In response to Reply # 0
It's not his fault he got drafted to a team that didn't play rookies like they do now. Born didn't want him to play then he had to deal with reckless gunner Agent 0.
13 years, 620+ games played and $65 million in salary before 33 years old take him out of bust category. Darko is a bust Kwame isn't. Kwame is rich living out in the boondocks.
His fellow NBA players joked on him and he responded back with jokes. Charlemagne the rapist needs to sit down airing out someone else's laundry.
There's nothing MAGA about Kwame, foh.

40. "RE: Yup....These Johnny come latelys need to check his old videos" In response to Reply # 27
yeah, i'm catching his old vids this past week, i had no idea he was on it like this. he was 100% on the ice cube shit. what has he been off base about in retrospect? absolutely nothing.
But Darko was drafted over actual franchise changing stars. Kwame wasn’t good by any means but if he were drafted like 10th-15th? Totally fine career. Darko was drafted over Wade, Bosh, Melo AND would have been a disappointment no matter where drafted.
34. "by the standards listed, he had a career" In response to Reply # 31
and made tens of millions
idc who brought up kwame or why, but if your defense of him is the length of his career and the money he made, then you shouldn't try to redirect at darko
36. "Go look at that draft class...which is a point that also gets overlooked..." In response to Reply # 34
Pau at 3 Think iso Jo was 10 and Zeebo was a late 1st rounder ...other than that...a whole lot of misses
The real criticism should fall on the people making the pick
Whatever Kwame did to convince MJ and nem that he should be the #1 pick...he did.
What’s to clown about that?
He got taken #1 overall
Got paid
Had a career
Nothing to defend, these are facts
20 years later, I haven’t thought about dude, and find it strange, given these facts, that former nba players whose careers were in support roles, would clown him
41. "Have you looked up Eddy Curry?" In response to Reply # 28
Kwame went to Jordan's team. If Elton Brand would've agreed to sign an extension in Washington and Jordan added another player Kwame is traded to Chicago. How does Kwame's career look if he played in Cbicago?
Jordan basically ran Kwame into the ground and no one taught Kwame the game of basketball in the same way teams develop young players now. Go look up the players Jordan brought in for his second year in Washington, none of them mentored or aided Kwame's development as a player.
There's a lot more to discuss regarding this myth of Kwame being a bust. Any player that averages a double double in two quarters is not a bust.

"root for everybody black haters say that's crazy, wow..."
people aren't listening, he's objective and very on point. Kwame spoke about how emotionally attached some black people are to the democratic party and how negroes are willing to fight if you criticize a political party. a few months back, a very close family member argued then threatened to shoot me because i was critical of bidden/harris, and he somehow assumed i support trump because i was critical of Dems. i'm giving the side eye to any black person not understanding what Kwame is talking about.

if you think you can't get a 5 minute reel of EVERY NBA player doing the same things you're gullible. then on top of that a frustrated kid playing in garbage time ... weak

is on point as well.
Sure, the jokes have to hurt but you are paid handsomely to play ball and get criticized OR praised for your performance.

57. "Are those lowlights the defining element of their careers?" In response to Reply # 54
He doesn't have to be a punching bag.
But none of the personal ahit he says in response can change the reason he's been a punchline for the entirety of his career.
He's done a great job shifting the narrative.
He's- wisely, depending on your perspective- found a way to milk his notoriety into some attenn and support.
But if you were a fan of any of his teams from those days, that lowlight reel is absolutely not the same what you get from other players, because this clip was the shit that stood out in real time.
He just didn't have the skills to be consistently competent, let alone good, as an NBA player. It is what it is.
But don't pretend that this was some cherry picked reel of fuckups.

and they found the worst of the worst.
I get why Kwame is made but he is the one trying to make it personal when most people know he just wasn’t that good.
when you are drafted that high all eyes are on your game.

to use those lowlights..
which makes me feel comfortable with my stance.
and I dont care if there were worse number one bust.. that isnt the point. The point is he was a bust. Some bust get more shine, especially when they are connected to Jordan.

66. "Kwame playing on the Lakers further put the spotlight on him" In response to Reply # 64
Kandi and Bennett were allowed to be busts in relative obscurity. Bennet was on the Cavs after James won in Miami but before he came back to Cleveland. Kandi was on the Clippers during one of their "we're just really shitty team" stretches, and people didn't really pay attention to their actual games.
Brown started off playing with Jordan, then went to the Lakers during the post-Shaq/pre-Pau Gasol trade years where it was Kobe and they lost to the Suns in the first round two years in a row. So he gets lumped in with Smush Parker.

That’s what ruined him. Arenas even referenced a lot how Kwame brown seemed broken and completely lacking confidence when they were playing together for the wiz and said “we know how MJ is” or something like that on all the smoke
Jorn been an asshole! U can just see it every time he speaks

I don’t watch FOX. I’m an intermediate Democrat, and I’ve never interviewed Judge Joe Brown.
And I’m 100 percent ZULU!
You know the only reason I know about kwame or have interest is he used to be a NBA player....so I’m very familiar with who he is and his history. Im not into his politics.
