Lebron and Phil Jackson

[LAD]

No, it's just extremely stupid. Maverick Carter is not on his basketball team.

ok, that went totally over your head...

I just want to know, when did Lebron call Phil a racist, because that's what people think the narrative is?

I'm not sure people are suggesting that Lebron called the guy a racist, but are you implying that Lebron and his posse didn't introduce a racial narrative to story?

 

[SJ76]

So do lies

Who's lying exactly? Or is this just another way of spinning things..

 

[SJ76]

Too bad they don't put the same effort in their communication skills

Phil and Maverick or Tom/Lebron? What needs to be communicakated?

Its an indication - to me - that this was more likely to have come from a place of thoughtful consideration and sincere motivation than a place of oversensitivity and a desire to be the victim.

When someone I know repeatedly plays the victim, I tend to stop taking anything they have to say too seriously. I don't worry too much about whether I've offended them because I realize they will take offense to anything.

When someone I know who never plays the victim becomes offended by a perceived prejudice or something I've done.... I take it seriously. No matter how ridiculous I think it is that they are offended... I know that their motivation is likely sincere - and that changes everything.

It doesn't mean I agree or even that I will change my behavior (depending on the circumstance)... but I will listen and have respect for their view on the matter.

So what you're saying is that LeBron has reason to believe Jackson is racist. What's the point of sending a subliminal shot at him over something that clearly wasn't racial, instead of just pointing out the proof he has to believe this? His roundabout comments only painted him into a no-win situation, although, listening to LeBron over the years, it's nothing really new.

That is the narrative. It was when he said that Phil called them a posse because they are African-Americans.

And btw, when does one become an American-American?

You asking the wrong one because I've been trying to figure that out all my life. How am I African-American, but I never been to Africa a day in my life?

Yeah, that's another conversation all together.

I say I'm Black.

But, I know many who prefer " African American "

My Maternal Great Grandmother was Dutch, My Paternal Great Grandmother was French.

I think people use different terms depending on where they live.

...and I don't just mean East Coast vs. West Coast or folks from the South.

Some of the lingo, styles in NoCal are so different from SoCal that it's almost like we live in different Countries...lol
