Reporters can be lazy when evaluating white nba players

Post by Imakeitrain » November 19th, 2020, 9:15 pm

This isn’t a post about race. It’s a post about lazy sports reporting. Most sports reporters are terrible they (with the exception of beat reporters like 22- who actually care about the the team).

It seems like when looking at what people compare white players to they often jump to other white players.

When looking at Tyler Herro I see comparisons to Reddick, Landry Shamet, and Nick Stauskas... (there was one comparison to Joe Harris and Kentucky’s beat reporter compared him to Devin Booker). They said the same things about Herro (he’s just a shooter and lacks athleticism). But Herro is a very elite nba talent.



It’s lazy reporting. Flat out.

Thanks for reading my rant. Hopefully you can at least laugh at this video

Reporters are generally lazy on most issues. Opinion based reporting even worse.
Think of all the years that the NCAA football champion was based on opinion.
Oh well history couldn't repeat it's self could it? Arghh!!!
