And nobody would say that's acceptable. But what was said does greatly change how the incident was perceived.

I'm not holding a grudge. He's a great player. He beat a really really good, consistent, defensively sound KU team almost by himself. That was an incredible performance. He is not that guy. He came back to get better. He's not. Yeah, he's got stats, but he's not that guy.
To think otherwise is being disingenuous at best.

He's pretty much exactly the same guy. Contributing in all the same ways (even with flopping) at the same rates except with a higher level of offensive efficiency this year. The only difference is that his team is losing more often and the media narrative about him as changed as a result.

Last year he was one of mine too. He's not that guy.

I know, he's actually been better.
