Literally calls another player 'pussy ass white boy'. lol wtf, imagine if doncic said that exact line but with white switched to black. Heck imagine if he just called any other player simply 'Boy'. that shit would cause an uproar

That should be called out. They're supposed to be professionals. Even if the term isn't as historically loaded, it's still not right.

Not historically loaded, but racially charged or he would not have used white.

Matt Barnes says nothing on court is off limits. Does that mean people can start using the N'word that ends with A more casually in that setting?

As a white dude who played ball a lot Id occasionally run into a guy who would make a deal of my race, calling me stuff like this or cracker/honky/etc. But by and large they were always condemned by everyone else on the court so I never really felt bad about it. Harrell is dumb for this.

Matt Barnes would be okay with white people saying the n-word (either version) on the court.
He would also have no problem with any player beating the shit out of that person.

Just like he would have no problem with a white guy beating the shit out of a black guy calling him a "pussy ass white boi" on the court.

He would be okay with all of that so long as no one would be called for a foul. Matt Barnes is not the person you want as a "gotcha" argument in dealing with rules and social mores.

I'm not condoning his behavior, but trash talk is trash talk. The objective is to get in the head of the opponent. Just because he said racist things doesn't mean he believes them or is racist.

So had the roles been reversed and the white player used the N word or something, you would take no issue at all?

first take is currently asking the question: is it fair to let montrezl harrell off the hook?

not only do all three panelists say that yes, he should be let off the hook
but now to the extent that people even raising this question or double standard are stupid and shouldn't be entertained

If the roles were reversed, Doncic would've been suspended, whether Harrell had complained about it or not. So, no.

More often than not thats not entirely what matters. There could be a lot of kids who loved basketball but are now going to stop playing because they think theyll just be a ..... what he said in eyes of people. And thats not cool. Shouldnt have to worry about someone instantly going towards your race and demeaning it when youre at a job or playing a game.

That's because Doncic is the bigger man than Harrell. >_>

Note: I actually don't give give a crap about either player since neither player is on the Lakers.

Doncic's words?

It was OK. No worries. A lot of emotions on the court, especially with the playoffs. Sometimes you say things you dont want to say. He apologized. I respect that. So no problems.

Dude's just thinking about the game, ain't no social media uproar gonna phase him, and he just proved it a couple of days later with 47 points, 17 rebounds and 13 assists. First time it's happened in the history of the sport, he carried a sprained ankle, and he's 21 YEARS OLD!!!

Even though I'm a huge fan of FCBarcelona, both Football and Basketball wise, and Luka played for Real Madrid, I have nothing but the utmost respect for the kid. Doncic is a class act, the future face of this sport.
