Maybe my first hand contact with brain tumors (an immediate family member having one the size of an egg that was there ten years and has come back) and knowing that if the tumor was small enough, it's not even that big of a deal as long as it's not malignant, which I can promise you it wasn't or we would have heard the dreaded C word. That whole situation was overblown. I've lived it, and people have the right to think its BS he was away from the team that long, essentially killing our season before it even started.
With all due offense, you are an idiot. My cousin had a "benign" central neurocytoma which rapidly caused her to be confined to a wheelchair, migraines, and significant cognitive impairment and behavorial change before surgery. She had surgical resection of the tumor and spent over a year re-learning how to walk and talk again. She still suffers from limb weakness and cognitive deficit.
Jrue's wife was diagnosed with a meningioma while pregnant. The location and symptoms definitely troubled her doctors and would freak me out if it happened to my wife. If it was "no big deal" or "overblown", there is NO way the doctors would induce early labor to rush a craniotomy.
People who think it was BS that he ws away from the team so long because he was with his wife whil recovering from brain surgery immediately following the birth of his daughter are assholes.

I don't see anywhere where Lauren underwent a craniotomy. I don't see anywhere where she had symptoms other than headaches. Sorry your cousin went through that, but it's not the same situation from what I can observe, as I'm sure your cousin's tumor was much further along and his/her road was much more difficult.
Did your cousin's wife or husband get to take off work for months at a time? If so, did they pay that person in full for their time off? Because that's what the Pelicans were kind enough to do for Jrue. It doesn't make people assholes for noting that Holiday got to do things the normal person wouldn't and was not entitled to that treatment from the team.
Yet it's funny, you can call me an idiot and an a-hole for sharing a brain tumor story, yet your brain tumor story makes you a know-it-all. And you, sir, are going to call me insensitive? Spoiler: I also went through a similar situation, watched a parent endure a crationomy, and have seen how that affects the person the rest of their life. Brain tumors have been a plot line in my life. They are a story in yours.

Hey, don't you lump me in with the pro-Demps crowd man. I jumped off that train long ago and have made it abundantly clear I don't have faith in him to handle the Holiday situation with precision and authority.
