Do you think whitening up basketball is the goal of globalization? Is it bad?
Do think a reasonable discussion is you answering no questions, insulting everyone who can't figure out your position, and asking questions yourself? Is that how your brain works?

Nice back track. he literally says they talked him out of participating in it. Nothing is "made up out of thin air"as you say.
Im sure he could have insisted being the 3 time winner, but probably doesnt want to cause drama being a fringe roster player.

Ain't it funny how the DEMOCRATS love diversity, equity, and inclusion for everything unless it's sports or academics.

You are talking about a group of people that lose their ever-living shite over a word.
They are soft.

Kevan Durant sure does like the white mans money though.

Stephen A is usually more reserved in his comments about race so this was a little surprising.

Why don't you start by looking up the question KD was asked that led to that response.
I don’t care enough to do that. I’m going use my obviously inferior intellect to yours to use context clues. In doing that, I have deduced that KD was implying that the white players don’t really give much effort in the ASG.
If I’m right, let’s check out the max effort that black players have historically given in the ASG. Shall we?

Specifically, the Europeans. More specifically, Luka and Jokic. 2 of the biggest stars in the league who often skate this type of criticism.

No one fricks around more and gives less effort during ASGs than Luka and Jokic. Thats not even a debate

They're doing it wrong.
It's not supposed to work like THAT! Sheesh.

I think it is. Usually it’s the case with ALL of the players involved, no matter their race. This is why they are constantly changing the format. That’s not even a debate.

When he lived in Oklahoma City he lived in a nice golf course community. But his entourage, primarily his brother, acted like they were still living in the hood.
Kendrick Perkins lived here for a while. His wife acted the fool in public several times.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander lives here now. He is black, and also a model citizen. In fact, I've heard absolutely no complaints about any of the current set of Thunder players or any of their family members.

Yeah, I got that implication as well but I’m not sure what it has to do with this:

White players screw off at the ASG and that means white Americans don’t like black players?

But some are clearly worse than others. If you follow ASGs of past, you should know this. Guys like Russ, Wemby, Ant typically GAF more than most others. And the other end of the spectrum has guys like (older) Lebron, Luka, Jokic who are barely even trying to get cardio in. KD pointing out why the latter two appear to receive minimal criticism in this regard is a fair take.

Well, to be fair, one is Serbian and the other is Slovenian. Anyone, who has ever been there knows those people are famously laid back. Only thing any Balkan seems to take seriously, historically, is war.
