I mean, that was a preposterous assertion by Dan.
KD was right to call it out.
Of all the things to delete, he chooses this?
KD was right to tweet that
i mean i think herro is better than maxey too but dan le batard is an idiot here and all the time.
Dan Le Bastard moment
Kd takes issue with everything anyone says about him but he’s kinda right on this one
I don’t think Herro is better than Maxey, but it’s not an absurd position.
It is absurd to say that white players are underrated.
Lol white players get overrated if anything.
Probably because it’s a insanely stupid thing to say
Bro is trying to start a race war
Herro is better than Maxey tbh
Man that show use to be so good. They became big time and changed show sucks now
I don’t think it’s crazy to say Herro is better than Maxey now, but to think he’s getting disrespected because he’s white is whack. Maxey has a higher ceiling than Herro but that’s all you can really point to and say he’s much better than him. But the take is still dumb especially relating it to race
what Batard said was absurd but ppl do tend to give maxey’s defense a pass while saying herro’s makes him unplayable, when they’re pretty comparable
There are plenty of Lebetard Stan’s here too
When will famous people learn. If your tweet was up for more than a millisecond, someone has already taken a screenshot.
I’d rather have Herro
Why does every shit there pants and scream during the off-season. Can these guys just enough some down time?
The racial part is ridiculous, but the comparison isn’t too far off in terms of talent level even though Maxey is probably slightly better.
I don’t think it’s because Herro is underrated though, it’s more that Maxey is overrated.
In what world do you live in to think that you get a better look from the media/coaches for being White in the NBA? It’s just embarrassing at this point.
Why is everyone so heated over this take? People saying Le Batard is going to start a race war are being insanely dramatic. I think it’s a pretty harmless and mostly true trope that white guys get a little overlooked in basketball.
This isn’t some giant revelation or heavy social commentary or anything. Yall really need to lighten up lol
Maxey is better no lies told
Let’s not pretend like we’re not all susceptible to racial bias. If herro were black and Maxey were white they would be viewed differently. It’s not preposterous to mention that.
Reddit loves to act like white players got it tough instead of the reality that being white in the NBA gives you built in popularity.
Marginal players like Payton Pritchard, TJ Mconnell, Alex Caruso and Herro all get more buzz because it.
I’ve seen multiple white kids rocking Herro shirts out of state in Texas, PA & NJ. I doubt you’ll see kids wearing Maxey or Poole shirts outside of their respective fanbases.
I mean what a dumb ass thing for Le Bastard to say. Maxey is better and more efficient. Herro is pretty one dimensional
Herro is not better than Maxey btw.
Not a Dan Le Batard quote, the actual quote was “people love specifically saying this to me because they thought I would think it first. They are like Herro is better than Maxey, he’s just whiter than him.”
