And this is why I tell muh'fukkas to stop treating player opinions as gospel.
bu-bu-but he played the game at the highest level.
At the end of the day, they are humans like everyone else, they have agendas and biases just like everyone else, particularly given the fact they're high-level competitors and will do/say anything to win.

They've done this for longest at TNT in particular.
It is pure hate and yes their opinions are welcomed but they really forget that they are there to promote the game too. They never do so. I don't see this with any other sport, I don't see Aikman during a coverage talking about how Lamar doesn't have it in him. Or any foreign soccer coverage commentators during a broadcast talking about Messi might be done. You're paying so much for these TV rights only to constantly shyt on the product? Why?
Shows like First Take and Undisputed as trash as Skip and Stephen A are with their views, these are the shows for that shyt. Not Inside the NBA, which covers actual games.

Man y'all clown ass faux blacks will make,the most mundane shyt about race smfh. GoofiesPlus they don't like how players have taken control of their destiny . Requesting trades and leaving to team up with each other.
Damn shame these guys want the rich white owners to have all the power
Shout-out to Bron, he said fukk that
The tone may not have been tactful, but who honestly believes Donovan Mitchell can lead a team to the title? They made a good point that in his entire career, he’s only had one double digit assist and one double digit rebound game.
Only reason I don’t think the criticism may be fair is I believe Donovan was like the 13th pick, so his expectations weren’t that high in the first place. He’s overachieving. He’s just not THAT guy to be criticizing. Kenny Smith said the criticism is more amplified now only because of their current standing, so now guys may more attention to the flaws, whereas when Utah was like a 4-5 seed, they didn’t think they’d do much anyway to be critical.

Notice it's only the c00ns hating though. You don't see Grant Hill, Chris Webber, Kenny Anderson or McGrady on that shyt. I can't watch Shaq and Chuck on that uncle tom shyt.Plus they don't like how players have taken control of their destiny . Requesting trades and leaving to team up with each other.

Nah you corny ass faux black
Imagine if you was a pretty well known and successful accountant. And some older well known accountant in his day popped up and was like, I like how you be crunching the numbers but, you need to work on your amortization skills if you trying to be a legend
You’d be likeYou had your time, let me do my thing. If I needed an accountant mentor, I would reach out. And I do, Bob from finance
Nah thats still not what Shaq did,now if that old accountant in front of all uir colleagues and clients declared you need to step ur game up and embarrass you and the work youve put in then its the same....It aint about what Shaq said.Its about him doing it on live TV in front of everyone for clout purposes.

The thing I hate is how these dudes become cogs in the white resentment/racism complex that drives our sports, from fans to media. These guys retire and suddenly want to talk shyt about who is lazy, who didn't grow up with a father in their life, how "kids these days" are spoiled etc etc etc. If you heard Dave from Bawnstannn call into sports radio saying this shyt you'd turn the channel in disgust. So why should we tolerate Shaq or any other black man saying this shyt?
NFL wouldn't tolerate this type of nonsense btw. They protect their product. Dudes get on ESPN saying dumb shyt about the NFL but you don't get the same level of resentment and downright stupidity that you get from TNT/ESPN/FS1 NBA coverage.
