    It's just one aspect that makes college ball boring and shitty.

    I also include horrible free throw shooting and one-and-done players that make college hoops terrible.

    Boy, I sure am glad that you get to decide what race someone is.

    "The guy looks white, so he's fuckin white!"

    According to your logic, I am not white then since I am of european descent.

    Look at all the white people everywhere going crazy even though his comments didn't affect any of you. It didn't affect any of your housing. It didn't affect your health care. It didn't affect your job. It didn't affect anything with any of your lives. Lorenzo ball is an idiot, racist, ass hat. But his racism doesn't affect any of you. So why is there a fucking threat about this bullshit?

    White people get mad when Beyonce says Becky with the good hair...

    The phony outrage speaks volumes.

    There are some really misinformed opinions in this thread....

    We're all one fucking race...

    How do you determine race....?

    Who the fuck wants to do this, eugenics believers?

    The very second folks start recognizing our similarities instead of our differences, will be the day that racism ends. Get your fucking minds right.

    I'd make a thread about it, if he tried to classify all oriental people as "yellow" while making racist comments about them.

    I'd also make a thread if it was some dumb old white guy that tried saying his sons team lost, because of some racist shit about the black kids on the team.

    False equivalence IMO.

    This thread is a waste of time.

    It's just a White people's pity party for racism that doesn't affect them...

    Because Nate. Racism affects you and I differently. Racism might mean that I don't get a job or get that apartment. It also means that there is an assumed guilt on the part of some minorities.

    Absolutely. White Americans just don't get it. There are plenty of instances where the discussion seems unfair because we can't say ignorant things or ask ignorant questions without being judged. We just haven't lived it firsthand so how would we know?

    I'm just going to focus on the local issue of my community and that is a guy selling sick puppies on Craigslist. Seriously, been on the local news for days.

    That's how focused people are on small things.

    His comments didn't outrage me. Though I think they were dumb and low class on many levels. One, to blame teammates for losing that actually outperformed you. Two, to blame their defense when it was your counterpart that dropped 40 points.

    Also, blaming their race isn't a nice thing to do. It would be like a white person fucking up in business and blaming his black counter parts for being less intelligent. Man, if I just had white co-workers none of this would have happened....
