He was spotted at the Trump rally in Duluth and now People On Twitter believe he should be removed from TNT's NBA coverage. Do you agree that he is no longer fit to be associated with the NBA?

Should not be discussed until the season starts. Talk baseball.

Not only should he lose his job, he should be drawn and quartered right in the middle of Dinkytown.

Nathaniel Friedman @freedarko
Kevin McHale is extremely stupid for attending a public Trump event. That, as much as his politics, is why he should never work in the NBA again
11:15 PM - 20 Jun 2018

Nathaniel Friedman @freedarko
I never said “he should be banned for his politics.” I said it was a *stupid* move because of what the reaction was bound to be around the league. Idiots

What if Nathaniel Friedman isn't as brilliant as his "How Tracy McGrady Redefines The Way We Redefine What Redefining Is" posts led me to believe he was?

McHale should hold a press conference and come out in a MAGA hat and shirt.

Well, theyll probably do what they do most times when liberals call for stupid shit, nothing. See Fonda, Peter.

The idiot hasn't compromised McHale's free speech. But rather this guy wanted him fired for engaging in our democracy. Guy gives a hot take then can't take the heat.

Wow, this is even stupider than wanting to blacklist Kevin McHale. "The way to break up the Warriors is to let the best rookies sign as free agents with the Warriors, which could work but also might not."

I appreciate Friedman's brazenness in admitting that his stupid idea could easily do the opposite of what it was intended to do with the understanding that what really matters about 86ing the draft is giving agency to young black players at the expense of old white executives. I wonder if he was wearing a dashiki when he wrote it.

I knew a GM who was in Duluth,
Once signed Joe Smith but didn't tell the truth..
He went and tried coaching just a little soon..
Got fired by the owner who himself was a loon.

I went to Duluth once for a client meeting with Cirrus. It was actually a cool operation. They were the small plane maker that had parachutes inside their planes to prevent them from crashing.
