"The optics on the us men's baskeball team aren't doing it for me"


  

          

I mean the team is doing well so far, but all I see is black players and 99% white coaching staff. Shit just looks polarized as hell. Like it looks wholly American (white folks controlling black folks) and non American (the actual players don't reflect our population at all) at the same time.

Probably just me.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

If Team USA only has ~8% black players, they aren't getting a medal.
