One fan replied: "Iman killed it and Len gave him a 4. If Len give him another low score we gonna have to form a cookout alliance like they did on Big Brother."

Another fan replied: "This is the best thing I've seen seen in 2021. And probably second to Michael Jackson's first Jackson 5 performance.
Ripped Off
@DancingABC just rewatching DWTS premiere, and Iman got ripped off. Honestly, he was much better than some others. Let’s be fair and #dobetter please…going forward! I know the first dances scores are the lowest but he deserved higher!

One Twitter user wrote: "I just found out that Iman Shumpert is married to Teyana Taylor. It all makes sense. NBA players and other very tall men are usually terrible on DWTS. He did well. Having a choreographer for a wife can't hurt."
Too Low
Iman deserved way better scores on #DWTS he was soo good !!

This person tweeted: "Iman Shumpert was by far the best. The Judges really blew him off. Then one gave the same score of 4 to Martin Cove who should not even be there. We are done watching THIS SHOW! Guess Iman is a Republican. BOO DWTS you are all Political too!"
New Score
Just watched the #DWTS season 30 premiere. Here are the scores I'd give.
Melanie C and Gleb Savchenko's Cha-Cha-Cha: 7
The Miz and Witney Carson's Cha-Cha-Cha: 6
Iman Shumpert and Daniella Karagach's Jive: 7
Olivia Jade and Valentin Chmerkovskiy's Salsa: 6

Another person announced: "It's time for Len to retire off. The way he judged Iman just ain't sitting well with my spirit....for a 6'5 NBA player I think he did incredibly well for a first dance..its not like he was serving Master P realness on the dance floor."
Fire Performnace
Na iman’s dance was fire I loved his performance. Them ⚪️ judges were hating heavy smh. I’m not watching the rest of the season if he’s voted off #DWTS30 #dwts

A Twitter user said: "I'm just now watching [Dancing with the Stars] so I hope y'all voted for Iman cuz I wanna see him pull out some more dance moves!!"
Not Deserved
iman shumpert did NOT deserve that 22/40 score on dwts…he’s so tall but he felt the rhythm and k!lled that jive, it’s a 30 at least come on

And this fan wrote: "okay WHY did Iman get such a low score?! He absolutely brought it with the big energy and enthusiasm. He really did much better compared to others. Len was so hard on him for what??!"
