I wonder if anything went down between Duncan Robinson and Kyle Korver either before, after, or during this game. And went I say “went down”, I don’t mean like a fight (although a fight would be guiltily hilarious), I just mean any kind of interaction between them outside of normal in-game interactions. I don’t know if Duncan Robinson has outright said anything to the effect of “I idolize Kyle Korver” but his playstyle betrays who his idols are. And one of those idols is Kyle Korver. That’s why it seems like maybe there should be some interaction between them.
To draw a comparison, if I was in the same room as original NBA highlights goat Kietass, I would walk up to him straight up and say, “you were a big inspiration for me and your Linsanity highlight videos remain the gold standard of individual player highlights on YouTube”. In the same vein, Duncan Robinson could come off a screen, splash a triple, and then tell Kyle Korver “I learned that move from you, bitch boy”. An extended middle finger (or two middle fingers) would not be inappropriate in this situation.
It actually just occurred to me that, since all these teams are sharing resorts like an extra-big, extra fun sleepover, maybe Robinson and Korver have already been hanging out off the court. Maybe they have a really touching “big brother-little brother” type friendship happening right now. Or they’re pushing each other into swimming pools while calling each other juvenile names. Either one works for me.
