He touches every mic as a joke to spread Corona virus that he has.
What is the difference between doing this and having unprotected sex when you know you have HIV?

That’s the mentality of younger people today.
No respect for anybody .

A small percentage actually ...most kids are good , that broad brush stroke you're using sounds like you're a little out of touch .

Well if you read the Tweet and have been keeping up with the story, that video was taken on Monday after a shoot around, BEFORE he was tested, diagnosed, showed symptoms of knew he had it-- in fact he was agreeing with many people on here that the Coronavirus is ridiculous and everyone should calm down (he was mocking it). Yesterday (Wednesday) right before tip-opp between the Jazz and the Thunder, he ironically was diagnosed and quarantined, then the game was immediately cancelled and each team was (and still is) quarantined.
It would probably be best for everyone to review facts before jumping on social media to attack a complete stranger and assume the worst in them. Mindsets like that is what is wrong with everything in the world today. Assume the best in people, not the worst

He knew he was sick , probably though he had a cold . It was plain ignorant to do what he did in jest of this Global situation

With the team doctors, training staff, nutrition staff, etc. monitoring these guys on a daily basis, coupled with the extreme caution everyone is taking for anyone showing slight symptoms (a fever or cold like symptoms) it probably is not the best educated guess to say "He knew he was sick." He didn't look sick in the slightest (appearance-wise) while he played 32 minutes Monday night against the Raptors (after that video).
Attacking people you do not know, attacking their intentions (which you really have no way of knowing) and commenting on situations where you do not know, or have, all the facts is just un-productive in general. Life is so much easier for everyone when we all think, speak and act with kind hearts and thoughtfulness for a situation or person. Assuming the worst just makes the world worse all-around (and is usually inaccurate).

I guess payback and karma are a b!otch for him.

I wonder if he thinks it’s funny now? No way to explain away the childish stupid act. Never a good idea to joke about something that is killing people.

I did not read the tweet. I just saw the video clip. BUT this is not the time to joke about it. He knew he was not feeling well correct? If that is the case you must consider the possibility that you do have the virus and do all you can not to spread it around.

Well he was talking into those mics so they I don't think it would have mattered much. He didn't know he had at the moment obviously so not sure why you say he should go to jail and certainly do not see how you can compare that to somebody spreading HIV knowingly. You are sad for this post imo.

That was indeed an idiotic thing to do. He was absolutely ridiculing the situation. He got up to leave and them came back to touch everything in order to make his point. I don't suppose he thinks it is quite so funny now. He is young and will most likely recover. What about others in his path who are older or compromised? Very selfish and uncaring on his part.
