I’m confused as to what it does for the NBA where young players can have great games and get shyt on in the postgame show. People had words for Shaq in the 90s about his FT shooting and all around game, but you NEVER saw it on NBC or TNT , especially after a big game. Adam Silver really needs to make a call
Its such a toxic culture.

you’re always trying to champion the NFL & put down the NBA.

at least the NBA doesn’t have an issue with hiring black coaches.

Tell us why white guys can be position coaches for 2 years and get a head coaching job while a guy who has helped create the top offense in the league for the past 3 years constantly gets passed over
Your pivot doesnt change my point.

Im surprised you got over the embarrassment of hating on boy and his son to even talk to me.

you hating on a young 8th grader falls in line with you defending shyt NBA coverage that hates on young players. Thats your wheelhouse

You really turned this into niqqas wearing white lab coats discussion?

So it's ok for dudes to talk about players in game they didn't watch?

old school approach these new players dont fukk with it though.

Shaq not wrong just 30 years to late with his critique
What’s the approach?

Don’t watch games, don’t have relationships with these players, criticize them on national TV, then try to take credit for motivating them when you talk to them?:unimpressed:

Barkley and O'Neal are asked to do the bare minimum requirements for their jobs like actually watching basketball games, learning how to pronounce European star's names and knowing international player's nationalities yet you have the stubborn bozos on this forum making excuses for them just because they find them entertaining. :heh:

Shaq comes off as someone who doesn't watch the game or study players unless they are the superstars of the league.
