Short Circuit: Kawhi Leonard’s iLaugh Sent Twitter Into A Hilarious Johnny 5 Hissy Fit

Image via Matteo Marchi/Getty Images Kawhi Leonard’s Laugh Is The Stuff Of Social Media Hysteria Kawhi Leonard has long been labeled, for better or for worse, the most stoic man in the NBA. He’s basically Stonehenge in sneakers. Although Kawhi is under no responsibility to be as animated, as say, a Busta Rhymes, a lil’ personality can often be good for a star athlete’s brand off the court. That said, today, the first day of NBA training camp, Kawhi attempted to speak as a fully formed human to the pool of press folk who were eager to ask questions of the tranquil baller. After all, he has a new team, the Toronto Raptors, and hopefully a new attitude after it appears that he was…non-communicative with his previous place of employment, the San Antonio Spurs, toward the end of their professional relationship. That attempt to open up and being himself has gone terribly awry. Press play below to find out why. Did you hear that? That laugh? WTF WAS THAT LAUGH?!?! When we tell you that #NBATwitter is BESIDE themselves in childish laughter, jokes, GIFs, memes and everything in between… “Kawhi, laugh normally if you’re not a robot.” Kawhi: pic.twitter.com/eS3NWF40bb — What the Sports (@realwtsports) September 24, 2018 Flip the page.

Apple Reportedly Pulls Dr. Dre Biography Series Because It’s “Too Graphic” For Streaming

LONDON, ENGLAND – MARCH 15: (EMBARGOED FOR PUBLICATION IN UK NEWSPAPERS UNTIL 24 HOURS AFTER CREATE DATE AND TIME) Dr. Dre attends ‘The Defiant Ones’ special screening at the Ritzy Picturehouse on March 15, 2018 in London, United Kingdom. (Photo by Karwai Tang/WireImage) Apple Pulls Dr. Dre Drama Series Over Graphic Content Despite the fact that he’s so closely ingrained in Apple culture, Dr. Dre’s newest venture has gotten the boot by the tech conglomerate. Apple has an upcoming streaming service launching soon featuring original scripted and documentary content, however, they’ve yanked Dr. Dre’s new series Vital Signs , because it’s just a little too much for their vision. Word is, Apple exec Tim Cook wants to keep their new streaming service as family-friendly as possible, and Dr. Dre’s dramatized life story is, unsurprisingly, far from PG-13. According to Complex , a Wall Street Journal story confirms that the semi-autobiographical drama centering Dr. Dre’s life features characters doing lines of cocaine, drawing guns, and even features an extended orgy scene — pretty much all the stuff you’d expect from Dre’s NWA days and beyond. But apparently, Apple is seeking to separate itself from streaming services like those of Netflix and HBO by focusing on family-friendly, middle-of-the-road content and shying away from violence, graphic sexual depictions, or hot-button societal issues. The show has been in production since 2016, so it’s not as if the powers that be had no inkling of the content therein…but Cook personally pulled the project to keep the streaming service “pure.” SMH. Welp, either way, we’re guessing Dr. Dre won’t have much of an issue finding a new home for his series. Getty
