Knicks & Lakers = knickers. Black people are hearing what they want to hear so they can have something to be outraged about. You'll notice the majority of people who are talking about it or claiming she said it are black.

That's just the world we live in now. It was a very simple slip up when trying to correct herself from saying the wrong team name.

If people want to be outraged about something then it should be this https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7932771/Journalist-suspended-tweeting-link-story-Kobe-Bryants-rape-case-2003.html
She was suspended for covering the truth and facts.

This backlash is the kind of pressure that prevents victims from feeling safe enough to speak up, no matter the timing.

Good to see Aspen Sniper got suspended from the Washington Post.

Its unbelievable. One of the thoughts I had last night was about all of the debates we've had and people have had for years. We spent years of our lives debating the GOAT and this player vs. that player. Its always a good exercise - because it always leads to understanding the game better, looking at more stats, or looking at perspectives on the game that we never thought of before. But in the end, its important to step back and appreciate what we get to watch. There is no point in truly taking sides. Because we have all had nights in our lives where watching one of the greats in their element was all that mattered.

Well said man.

It’s crazy that the last tweet/post from Kobe was congratulating LeBron for his accomplishment. No point in taking part in any Kobe vs LeBron arguments anymore.. just goes to show it’s so much bigger than basketball.
