I understand being touched by a song. Nothing wrong with that.. I just wonder why do it on the internet in such a fashion? that I don't get...
...Because he is an egotist and has no friends strong enough to stand up to him and tell him that he is/was being a fool.
Its like that old fairy tale "The Emperor's New Clothes," where the king's sycophantic followers don't have the guts to tell him he is naked.
I don't know how many kids he has or how old they are, but I wish one of them had been old enough to see what he was doing and tell him to stop it because he was making a fool of himself.
I think it's the opposite. He just doesn't care what anyone thinks of him and he's putting himself out there. I can respect that. He has indeed lost his mind over the years though. Not going to pretend I know his pain and why he got this far though that's his thing to worry about.
Just take it for what it is - some dude throwing himself out there - and not giving a damn what people think.
The only people that should be worried about it are Steph, the people close to him, and whoever might want to give him a basketball contract. The rest of us are spectators.
Egotist: the practice of talking about oneself too much; an exaggerated sense of self-importance
He is doing what an egotist does- this broadcast captures the essence of the word.
His wife actually just called up and it seemed like she was trying to get him to look at what he was doing.
His egotism is his defense mechanism- it serves to filter reality so that reality doesn't damage him, but exposing himself like this goes a bit too far.
Maybe it is the internet and reality TV dominated society we live in today which makes you feel that what he is doing is beyond criticism and should just be accepted, but from where I come from, this type of thing is egotistical, selfish, self-indulgent, and more than a bit pathetic. It is also sad... and I don't even like the guy. For the people who really love him-not the yes-men he surrounds himself with- this must be torturous to watch. The fact that he would not think about them tells us all you need to know about him.

Steph has a lot of mental issues and should consult psychiatrist and get some therapy. And it is no fun to hate on and laugh at a person sick like this....

You want vaseline? You got it.

He's out of his mind.

His family should have him committed for a few months. He needs serious help. The dude is selfdestructing before our eyes. He is only 31 years old and should have 4-5 more years in the league. Instead, he is about to be blackballed from the NBA all together.
