Cacs Cacing? OKC Thunder Steven Adams sorry for 'little monkeys' remark over Warriors

Been to New Zealand twice. Racist as hell. Australia might be the most openly racist place I've ever been, but you feel it for sure in New Zealand.
Oddly enough I heard the opposite as well. It seems that people either say its one way or the other.. I was supposed to go years ago but didn't, I was concerned about the racism. Some people claim the whites are super laid back. I suppose that doesn't mean they can't be racist, the history of the land speaks for itself. I still want to go tho....
 
I find it funny people chalk it up to him being from another country, as if other white countries aren't racist as hell.

Klay is 6'7? little monkey?

I don't think it's a coincidence at all.
 
And blacks have been victimized by them all..

And Who gives a fuck what non whites are a victim of. That isnt the issue here. Stay focused.

Agreed. Black folks are the most victimized, subjugated, and abused in this known universe.

I was just wondering if white society classifies Steve Adams as one of their own or if he classifies himself in the white social circle?
 
It's 2016, mofo has a TV and knows what's going on in this country. Dude should have known better or use the off season, to expand his vocabulary.
 
Adams, 22
Damn I couldn't imagine what he's going to look like at 30.Whites don't age well at all.

Question:

Does society classify Steve Adams as a white person?
Better question is what does his home country classify him as along with himself?He can pass for white but he may not consider himself as such but who knows.He's going to stay far away from race questions from now on and he might even avoid talking at all.
 
It was said descriptively, not derogatorily.
c'mon y'all...
If OKC employees #35 and #0 ain't mad (they know him better than we do) get the monkey off your back!
 
Noted you two

Noted



Dude, I'm not going to sit here and say he's a saint, but seriously 4 years in america playing bball, when are his teammates going to break down the intricacies of being a black man in this world ? I supposed he learned about it in his history class or perhaps while soaking in the cold tub Durant pulled him to the side and broke down the African diaspora ? Its easy to assume the worst in people but seriously some are ignorant period.
We gotta stop reacting over the low hanging fruit, like niggas cheered when sterling got bounced shiiid its probably 12 more owners who openly shit on us its 16 shooting on the fuckin expressway here in Chicago and it ain't the police... You seriously then I'm concerned about the tooth saying fast monkeys.... Shit you think Kobe knew what it was like being black in america... Before he spent many years here... He said he didn't... So let's not act like people can't be ignorant... But with all that said if entreprenegro likes my point... I may be on the wrong side of this :dunno:


Like New Zealand does not have a LONG history of discrimination and destruction of melanin folks. He knew what the fuck he was talking about

What was that I thought Australia went hard on aborigines people but I'm not up on new Zealand
 
No dummy. What "we" need to do is get a global perspective through education. You implying ignorance or innocence based on his nationality is about the dumbest shit uttered in this thread. New Zealand is as racist- if not moreso- than any other country/land with a history and reputation of being so.


Shut yo dumb ass up ofay. Colored in SA means the same thing it meant here... And that is the presence of a race based system of oppression used to bolster white supremacy. Foh with your devils advocate bullshit.

Please by all means show me the glaring racism of new Zealand, but more importantly when might he learn about our plight would that be his history courses in new Zealand or would that be when wesbrook breaks down cointellpro in his annul NAACP meeting he has every Monday after practice, just like I'm not concerned what happens in China and I'm sure you couldnt tell me day to day shit in China let alone Chinese full history , so then why would he be overtly concerned with what's happening here ? All he knows is the police are killing us at a high rate if that, so miss me with your shallow logic every Intl individual does not know our plight you think vladdy knew about blacks getting beat by police or gang violence 4 years in Usa.... But I bet he knew his homeland was getting bombed into the stoneages
 
Can any of you apologists provide a recent example of a white athlete being compared to an animal? At first I didn't give a shit, but white MEN are always celebrated for their abilities, not dehumanized

Some of you are so quick to give the benefit of doubt to a people who have never earned it and even more quick to direct your venom and criticism at those who look like you who dare not give that same benefit of the doubt. Very strange.

You're more offended by my response and correction to absolutely erroneous information than you are by real or perceived bigotry and insensitivity. Odd behavior. You'd make a very good slave tho.

He referred to these dudes as monkeys.

I agree that he was not referring to these guys as subhuman primate. He was referring to them as agile pests and nuisances. He should have chosen a different comparison.

Still.

He apologized.

The context of the conversation tells you he was not speaking about race.

He plays in a black league with black teams mates and he was playfully talking to a black man about the black players Steph and Klay. If he was talking about JR and Irving then the context would remain unchanged. There is an absence of malice here.

I said lebron
 
Fuck that cac, I ain't defending that shit. Hopefully the brothas on the team checked him for his choice of words. I still want KD and Russ to pull off the upset though.
 
Yaw say New Zealand is racist and so is Australia. I believe it all the way. Australia used to be nothing but melanated people called Aborigine, and the British King sent all his unwanted criminals on ships to Australia. If yaw remember on the Simpsons; they went to Australia and their statue was the character Snake a career criminal on the show.
 
It's something about how he paused...

Thought about the right word

And choose monkey.

That is just...I don't know especially since there is a racism issue in new Zealand, and he been in the league and country long enough to know better.

I don't trust him. Good apology though...but if he could say all THAT?

MONKEY shouldn't have been the first word out his mouth.

Nothing to see here, he literally meant monkey.. He's from new Zealand, I doubt he meant it, we gotta stop making every situation worse than it is

referencing monkeys to black men is known all over the globe to be offensive. he may have been so comfortable with using the term that it just came out. we gotta stop making excuses for obvious bullsheit because that makes the situation worse than it is :hmm:

I asked you to show me the racism that you spoke of, so you come in and in a round about way, you say dont try to refute my point agree with it, thats the point of this board to form your own opinion and debate, I spoke on we can't always assume the worst ive personally worked with white and black doctors, some white doctors have stuck their neck out for me, and some black doctors have done me greazy... Dont judge all the same nor assume the worst, I pointed many a reason to as why he could have said it.... But to be honest after sitting and listening I'll say he shouldn't say it, which I originally said, but we dont know if its in his heart or not. I'm not validating him I'm not convicting him

Now if he had said that about lebron James would you have made this same post?

I have no ties to Bron but I think if he individualized it thats a long the lines of an eye brow raise... Like I have said before let's not always assume the worst in people
 
I guess y'all would feel much better if he said,
"Those two scoot around the floor like,...like little cockroaches."

I'm more upset when these college educated athletes talk all mush-mouthed in their post-game interviews...

largebills: LBJ does his own simian connections. I HOPE he didn't know about the early U.S. Army drawing vs. the Germans when he agreed to do the Vogue cover photo shoot with this pic ending up chosen for use.
