Gregg Popovich says white people have every possible advantage in this society

Because (white privilege) is always there, and it’s systemic, in the sense that when you talk about opportunity, it’s not about, ‘Well, if you lace up your shoes and you work hard, then you can have the American dream.’ That’s a bunch of hogwash.
“If you were born white, you automatically have a monstrous advantage — educationally, economically, culturally, in this society and all the systemic roadblocks that exist, whether it’s in a judicial sense, a neighborhood sense with laws, zoning, education. We have huge problems in that regard that are very complicated, but take leadership, time, and real concern to try to solve. It’s a tough one because people don’t really want to face it.”

Except when it comes to becoming NBA players. But Greg won't tell you that.

His white guilt is unrelenting.

That's the irony.
He spent his life in a culture that went the other way in presumptions for all of the 70's, most of the 80's, some of the 90's and probably a little still to this day.

I got shite on here last week for calling him a SJW.

He's not wrong.

It is pretty great being white
Posted on 2/4/17 at 5:33 pm to Bench McElroy
Growing up white and trying to be a professional basketball player is a disadvantage. So he's wrong.

I'll probably sleep better once Pop dies.

Yet he has prospered at the expense of all those less privledged.

Thanks Greg. Now I hate you

White kids born poor do not have any advantages over rich kids born black.

Pops is far from an SJW. Your use of "SJW" is equivalent to leftists overuse of "Racist."
And for the record, the term "racist" is completely overused by all. "Prejudiced" is the appropriate term most of the time. Broken 2 party system doing work.
