Funny because he’s played under a black GM for most of his career with Doc Rivers and Otis Smith with the Magic

JJ must be addressing the old school people who think free agency and maximizing value on the open market is the devil and socialism, like people got so triggered when LeBron left for Miami it bordered on irrationality and illogic he was a free agent he had the right

I mean, how many people dislike Eli Manning because he refused to go play in San Diego?
Eli got hammered just as hard for this as a basketball player does
Now you also had some people calling him smart, just like you do when a basketball player leaves for a better place
People didn’t take it easy on eli because he is white.

It's true. Sorry to burst your bubble with a fact bud.

Except that's not a fact but okay.

Or...is the dynamic perhaps, exactly as he described, organization versus player? Nowhere in there did he provide an example of how the dynamic is different based on the players race. Or whether the organization has black coaches involved in the decisions. Basically, yet another example of COMPLETELY UNSUBSTANTIATED race mongering. Will probably earn JJ some points with the bros in the locker room though. Totally unnecessary and unsubstantiated interjection of race, once again. Thinking critically is just not as convenient as throwing around simplistic victim narratives that feign self-righteous indignation.
