Certainly sounds like it.
Is there any other info on it. Did he refute it, at all?

He did refute it. Said he changed his sentence mid sentence.

Also why would he actually use that slur in an official NBA holiday greeting to China

Undeniably sounds like the slur, but I highly doubt that's what he intended to say

His cadence doesn't sound like he changed anything mid sentence.

Id have no clue what he's saying without the subtitles. Kinda sounds like he wants to say Chinese, like his mouth was slower than his head and he didnt want to be redundant by saying Chinese fans in China.

Or he's a racist.

What the hell is wrong with some people

How can you "slip" out a racial slur? The only explanation is if you say that shit on a regular basis

Why'd the person video taping him spread it all over the world?

Why wouldn't they just be like, "dude you just said blank, wtf? let's re-record that?"

He said he was going to say "Chinese NBA fans" then changed his mind mid-sentence.

Makes a lot more sense than if he actually said the slur. Why would he say that word? Makes no sense.

I have no clue why no one from the NBA caught this earlier -- either when they were filming it or later when they edited it into this video.

Sounds like he went to say Chinese, then realized he was going to say "in China" at the end, stopped mid word, and casually went on anyway

Brain farts or racism, whichever

So "Chinese" just automatically comes out as a racial slur when he is speaking.

The real question is why was this even aired, released, or whatever without being caught by editors or something putting it together? Why wouldn't they cut that out entirely or say hey it sounds like you said ____ let's get another take, or something?
Even knowing it's most likely an accident, because I mean who tf would use a racial slur intentionally in a direct holiday greeting? Nobody is that dumb. But still why would they leave it in knowing how it sounds?

Regardless though, I lol'd at the video in the op.

You really think Redick intentionally used a racial slur when he knew he was being filmed by the NBA for a Chinese New Year video?

Come on, dude. Even the most racist person in the world doesn't do that.

Assholes generally are also good at covering their own ass and caring about themselves... Even the biggest asshole in the world knows directly using a Chinese racial slur in the official NBA clip celebrating the Chinese New Year... Even the biggest asshole in the world would know that's a potential career ender...

Lol, that was funny. Im guessing he uses that slur regularly and it just slipped his mind, so in a way it was unintentional.

I've never had any notably or memorable negative interactions with him. He's actually been fairly cool the few times we've had a discussion on something. I wouldn't even really say I'm arguing with him here, just disagreeing.

It would be interesting to hear a linguist analyze it. Really does sound like he said it, but maybe they could pick up on some nuance that most wouldn't hear.
It does seem absurd someone would just say that in an interview like that. Then again, people say and do plenty of absurd things.

The generally opinion is you can def hear both so people are giving him the benefit of doubt and are instead yelling at the company who edited it

He said it, no doubt in my mind.

The issue is what the hell he was actually thinking when he said it.
