“I know you didn’t mean to say that and I’m not going to kick you out of the gym because you spent your money on those tickets and drank a little too much. I understand how people feel, but there are better ways to get my attention and talk to me than calling me a bum just because you’re sheltered in the gym”, said the star. The Suns star also commented on the athlete-fan relationship.
“It wasn’t a big deal. Like, they don’t see us as human sometimes. So when you have the chance to show someone how you feel in that moment, then they back off. See, we are animals, circus attractions, artists to them, instead of real people”, he added.
