Robin Lopez’s epic blood feud with NBA mascots has been happening for some time now. Mascots keep egging Lopez on and he responds either maliciously through hurtful words or even through violent measures.
Of course this is all in good fun as the banter is just excellent mascot-ing by mascots like Hooper of the Detroit Pistons. But apparently for Harry of the Atlanta Hawks, the abuse has gone too far. Harry engaged Lopez on Twitter and then recruited some of his Atlanta-area mascot friends to protest Lopez as the Trail Blazers take on the Hawks tonight.
It looks like NBA mascots may be finally fed up with Lopez and they are shouting, “We’re Not Going To Take It.”
Be prepared Robin. There is strength in numbers.
