If you’d called him the Michaelangelo instead, who was integral to Simeone’s philosophy of suffering, there’d be a pretty good The Agony and The Ecstasy reference to be made here.

The other, completely facts-adjacent, thing that I find appealing about this is that his flat earth, I-am-a-brain-genius act makes so much more sense in light of his status as basically a grifter.

Honestly though putting that song into people’s psychological space is downright antisocial.

Damn, this is good kinja. And I’m not even saying I disagree, I see a lot of Kyrie dribbling around like crazy and people saying how skilled he is but at the end of the day what is he doing with it?

Looks like he needs a new chesst protector.
