    JJ Redick is my friend. I know to most of you he's just a guy on a basketball court, but the moment I heard people saying he used a racial slur toward Asians I knew it wasn't true. Anybody who knows him, knows this. The moment I saw the video I knew what he says here happened. https://twitter.com/JJRedick/status/965443290324664320 …

        You really think JJ would say a racial slur in a public NBA greeting video? For everyone to see? Seriously?

        No way the man purposely uses that word in that way in this interview. It was purposely for NBA fans in China. It would take a complete fool to say that. It was a misheard interview.

        it was more of a Freudian Slip, and if it was the N word instead, you'd be more upset about it.

        I’m surprised no one caught that editing it because it did sound bad.

        He seems like a decent guy. NBA players are pretty inclusive and diverse. I believe him. And you.

        This is disappointing. Another example of zero tolerance unless it is somebody I care about

        I only heard of this through you so I googled him. First thing that came up as abortion contract and racial slurs at Latina exgf. How are you supporting this guy?
