Kyle Lowry

He's a class act too. He couldve easily retaliated and punched that fan in Oakland, but instead he kept his cool
In days gone by, Kyle might well have done just that. He has matured greatly over his time with the Raps.
He would have been suspended at least one game if he did that even in retaliation. The push was not that hard and it was the profanity that resulted in punishment, in part. Silver can’t have a league where his athletes can hit a fan no matter what is done to them - other than some kind of real self defence actions. That’s why there is team security, arena security and police. Don’t ask me how I know, other than I am an insider on many MLSE matters.
Kawhi supposedly bought a house in Toronto, Kyle already has one and Wendel Clark is one of his neighbours.
As for Mark Stevens pushing Kyle, I'll quote from SCTV, "may the Good Lord take a likin to ya and fix up up with Charles Oakley real soon".
Raptor for Life!

Of course he should love toronto, he gets paid millions to play a kids game, women likely throw themselves at him. Compared to many in this city that have to struggle on 30k to 60k a year it's a charmed life. Hell with that money he gets here I'm sure even a place like new York City would be charming.
All these athletes lead charmed lives. I like football and Cristiano Ronaldo or Messi have you seen how those guys live? I think Ronaldo has 30+ high end cars.

The facts include that Lowry does not speak French and that Serge Ibaka, who does, was sitting right beside him at the time and was the likely target of the question.
Just saying...why leave out important details unless you're trying to stir something up.
Best to report the full facts as leaving our pertinent details creates a misperception of what happened (context is critical). The question was 100% directed at Serge Ibaka by a French language reporter, who obviously knew Serge is French speaking. Kyle then got up kind of laughing saying he'll leave this for Serge to answer. Did so with humour, not disrespect. If you watched it, this was obvious.
I agree. Here is a vid of the interview.

Kyle was just joking around. The PR person managing the press conference had just said that this was going to be the last question...and then it was asked in French so Kyle just left it for Serge. Everybody got a chuckle out of it.
In a subsequent interview, a reporter asked Pascal Siakam a question in French and he pretended that he was going to walk out but then didn’t. Pascal speaks fluent French; he was just joking with the press like Kyle did.
I saw that article too. In my opinion, it is completely misleading. I dunno why Yahoo Sports would report it that way.
Lowry prefers Toronto to American cities for its cultures and safety. It's why he has chosen to raise his family here.
Fake news sells and people believe it, that's why. Like the way you believe liberal fake news lies day in and day out.
So...We agree that this story is fake news. Very rare...We never agree about anything.
But you couldn’t just leave it at that, eh? You had to throw in an unprovoked cheap shot...whatever.
I think that was Michael Landsberg from TSN that reported on this rumor....Kawhi was asked about it today by the press, and he said it wasn't true

I think Kawhi may actually be living out the St. Regis on Adelaide currently....my Uber Black driver two weeks ago said he gave Kawhi a ride from the BioSteel Centre to the St. Regis
Why is this news now, silly people.
French Radio Canada has had reporters at the press junkets from the beginning, Serge and Pascal have been answering their questions. It comes natural to them, they probably enjoy it, English is much harder. Serge is from the Republic of Congo, Pascal from Cameroons, both have French as their colonial language.
Most effective way to promote unity. Those that say Kyle is being disrespectful should eat ham and jam and spam a lot.
