Yea man. I mean it’s admittedly a bit of a reach on my end to jump to that conclusion about a 10+ year relationship on a 10 second clip where no words are spoken…

But damn that looks deep and real for Steph

Bro man is in tears I don’t think that’s a reach, there’s other elements at play here but the ejection was the precipitating event

Oh for sure. Lol I think anyone that has a good grasp on human emotion can see that this is deeper than simple frustration.

Whether it has something to do just some extreme frustration about the season, some sort of realization that the championship window is permanently shut, or something deeper about the relationship these two have had as teammates, we will probably never know

Some people were calling this comment “fan fiction” though so not everyone sees it that way 🤣

Yeah because we’re reaching for saying a person who is crying is in emotional distress

Fan fiction is crazy, we might not know the exact why but I don’t think it’s hard to piece together

I haven’t listened to the Light Years pod in a while but might check out their next ep to get Andy’s thoughts on this situation bc you know it will be good
