A video of NBA athletes wishing fans in China a Happy New Year has sparked a major controversy after J.J. Redick of the Sixers appeared to use a racial slur:
Dozens of NBA stars are featured wishing fans well for the upcoming Year of the Dog, before it cuts to Redick who says:
“I want to wish all the NBA c***k fans in China a Happy New Year.”
The video showcasing Redick’s slur remains the only version showing the incident. The video was not produced by the NBA or the 76ers, but rather licensed to Chinese media company Tencent. It produced the video with the NBA’s rights as part of a wider broadcast agreement in China. Since the controversy began, Tencent removed the video featuring Redick — instead uploading an almost identical version, without the Sixers player.

I don’t know what I said would be true so I’ll edit/delete. Coming from an ignorant point of view

Luckily it was a racial slur toward a race who aren’t as offended by words. The PC white crowd will hang him though. Wouldn’t it be funny if Asians commonly referred to each other as that word, like you go play a pick up game of basketball in hood of Shanghai and all you hear is C**** amongst each other and then you get caught saying it and your labeled a racist for life? Lol nah that won’t happen.
Even though US put them in concentration camps in the 1950s and they’ve lived under fascist regimes for hundreds of years killing millions of their people, I Don’t think they see themselves as the offended by words. I think they be like “well that’s a poor choice or words” and then they go on with their day
Who the frick are you? The consiglieri for all Chinese people?

Uh, I don’t know how you came up with all of this, but I’m pretty sure Chinese don’t like being called c***k. Just a hunch.

Just saw a video that is being circulated of me wishing a happy new year to NBA fans in China.Clearly I was tongue tied, as the word I purportedly said is not in my vocabulary. I’m disappointed that anyone would think I would use that word. I love & respect our friends in China.
If you click on his Twitter you see a bunch of responses in Chinese. Pretty cool to click that translate button and see all those symbols turn into English.

I wonder if non-english speaking Chinese even know the slur.

Let's see that bitchass punk Lebron weigh in on this.

maybe not, but the same could be said about every non english speaking minority

Yeah I’m more inclined to believe Redick. The guy doesn’t appear to be dumb enough to insult the league’s largest international market, and I doubt he’s racist since he plays with a bunch of black guys.

No, he's a public figure. I'm a keyboard man, a squirt, and I dare say I'm racist. I apologize for doing wrong. But he could not, so did not apologize, with his tongue perfunctory past. I can greet him every cell with slang, but he scold me in his language, and I scold him in my words. There is an old saying in China, that is, to be used in one's own way.

Trump’s army has taking down the NFL in three years on autopilot, clearly, so they’re moving on to the NBA because LeBron said some mean words about trump.
