Honestly where I was coming from is the guy was saying that Draymond can get away with things that Kyle Anderson can’t. How anyone could even begin to take anything racial out of that I could not possibly understand. You have to be looking to call something racial there, and then it doesn’t make sense.

His meaning was obvious.

It was the one name he called Draymond that caused the problem.

Insensitive and poorly worded at best.

I didn't know about this story until now. I doubt the guy was trying to be racist. If he called a white player a knuckle dragger, there would be no problem. Just a bad sports take, as Kyle Anderson definitely earned his ejection, but people are making a big issue about it because society is too sensitive. Next thing you know, Will Smith is going to slap this weatherman.

Well he straight up said that Anderson is mild mannered so it was obvious what he was contrasting. People can choose not to be offended by idiocy, especially when there is really nothing to be offended about. We need more of that.

Time to bump this thing....
.........and send those little bears back into hibernation.

Let's! Go! Dubs!

See no reason why they don't take care of business. But I'm kinda bad picking games. So I might have jinxed them.

Got some money on the series or you just want the Warriors to win?
The Warriors are not on my list of anything good, I meant to say we can only hope you jinxed them.

I agree. Teams that build their core through the draft and with key strategic FA signings are killing the league…

I think the Grizzlies win tonight, but it's far from a lock. Maybe 60/40 Grizzlies.
