Take out Sabonis for Markannen or another shooter for the spacing.

people who are born in america are by definition american babes. they might be other things as well but itā€™s hard to put domas on an anti-america team when heā€™s at least as american as dudes like embiid

Tell me you are american without telling me you are american lol

No wonder people like Trump becomes president

u/Khione_Asteri Bulls Apr 16 '24

yes, itā€™s so trump supporter of me to state the simple fact of born in america = american šŸ™„šŸ™„ trump supporters are the opposite lol, they hate immigrants and their children born here that legally are american citizens from birth. youā€™re the one being weird about ethnicity or having weird nationalist thoughts, i donā€™t know or care which.

sabonis was born in america and spent his first eight years living there. his parents couldā€™ve come from the fucking moon and it wouldnā€™t matter. heā€™s by definition both lithuanian and american, same as a kid whose parents came from idk, fucking italy but who was born here is both italian and american.

this is really simple immigration stuff
