    racism's refs doing what they do, to ruin NBA games.

    https://streamable.com/14cn7

    keep in mind...

    -the NBA anti-flopping rule

    -the NBA contact rule disallows (what White player does here) putting both hands on the player, when that far away from the basket.




    Yet...Black player gets ejected from the game here.

    I think you're seeing something that isn't there.

    That' s exactly right, running around the forum finding racism everywhere you look diminishes the effectiveness of pointing out real cases.

    I watch at least one NBA game every day, usually more, and let me assure you that you're making something of nothing. Steph Curry, a half black and half white player, and James Harden, a black player, benefit from the rules more than anyone. The rules nowadays favor perimeter players, be they black or white.

    But players are afraid of James Harden, he's one rough dude!

    That was some blistering criticism.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.
