The Foxhole Court Tumblr Part 2

Kevin and Jack

What about Kevin ? He choose Jake, so yeah youhou, perhaps he's good but it isn't worth his comportement, plus it's bad for the team relationship, so what does he think/do ?

Oh man, ya'll think way too highly of Kevin if you think someone's bad attitude is gonna interfere with what he wants on the court. It didn't stop him with Neil or Andrew. I mean, he grew up with the Ravens. Jack's a toothless child in comparison.

Besides, Jack has no issues with Kevin–Kevin is the champion, the legend, the star striker who's made an impossible comeback. Jack wants to learn from Kevin, and he'll ask intelligent questions and pay attention to the answers, and he'll very obviously try to incorporate any advice Kevin gives out no matter how condescending Kevin can be when he speaks. So Jack is a-OK in Kevin's book.

That doesn't mean Kevin isn't ignorant of the issues, though he's as likely to chastise Neil for not getting Jack in line quicker as he is to lose patience with Jack for it. Neil's gone toe-to-toe with Riko and Andrew; he's too stupid to be cowed by anyone, so why can't he control his own players? Is he a vice captain or not? Does he want this position or not? ((This argument does very little for Neil's nerves, unsurprisingly, but Kevin & Neil are least quasi-discreet about how much they squabble this year.))

But before you think Kevin's switched sides or anything, know this: Kevin's not going to fight Neil's battles for him, and he's not going to pass up on Jack's talent just because Jack's a shitbag, but he'll put Jack in his place the second Jack starts thinking too highly of himself. Jack asks Kevin on more than one occasion why Neil, and Kevin says without hesitation: because he is worth more to the court than you ever will be.
