Rob Parker - Wave of Hating on International NBA Stars is Disgraceful by American Players 

for real

THANK YOU

Wildly wrong. Not one of Rob’s examples proved what he’s saying and Brou didn’t even really disagree which makes it even more wrong.

He's such a nice guy. All ACTS. Almost never gives Giannis any credit. Hypocrisy of these ppl is INSANE.

Nah Rob as a baseball guy wants to see the NBA fail and it is under these international stars. Even NBA playoff ratings are down.

Like🤨 last big thing they disagreed heavily on was the Caitlin thing

Ikr it's crazy

Rob is a CLOUT CHASING has been journalists who CLEARLY is thirsty 4 attention

Yes cooking him with no oil in the pan 😂

Not on this discussion

Work on your fuckin game

Preeeeach 👍🏾👍🏾

Exactly.

I agree. This era of American players just aren’t obsessed like Kobe/Garnett/Jordan/Bird etc. Try to play every game and play pickup games in between. International players are proving you don’t need to be that way. But that also used to be American’s edge.

We american players especially black players don't have facilities lol . American govt is like it's a free market lol sick truth

How…? They basically agreed with each other for the most part.

@@rickyrobby8133Lol

Lol

Definitely 100 on that

Agreed

His problem is with the "European" players, not international players. We all know what that's about.

@@andrewmcmurray8081 and why does that offend you? Are you European?

Or him laughing, saying he wants Draymond Green to injure all the European players…

@@manofaith75are you African?

​@@manofaith75 I'm general intolerant of intolerant bigoted idiots. Gilbert xenophobic world view falls under the bigoted intolerant idiocy

Dude has a mental problem

Kendrick Perkins would have a lot to say about that hahaha

@@jdek88 Also Pat Bev saying that KAT is the goat of all time centers lol.

@@phillipgoat00 Pat Bev is a complete moron

Like that one female that was with Zion, clout chasing is as big as the actual high of getting there!

I agree. Get rid of that Canadian team! Let international players play in another country and see how much they can make and how well known they could become.

@@HardCold-Alquan we couple stop showing immigrants too huh?

​@@FortunateKidd damn you sound so ignorant lol. These foriegn guys aren't getting any special treatment. American players also get the same amount of hate as any foriegn player if not more. Just look at any LeBron James video 💀 These foriegn guys are only in the spotlight now because all the guys everyone hated on previously (Bron,Steph,KD, etc) are aging out. While they (Jokic,Embiid,Luka etc) are currently the best players. Fans like you are why people accuse the NBA for being soft. Just like Jordan fans crying about him getting beat up, then complaining that the NBA isn't physical anymore 🤦🏿‍♂️🤣🤣

​@@HardCold-AlquanReally? Imagine there's an international league minus America; I'll guarantee, within a decade or 2 they'll be earning more than in the NBA.

🤷🏿

How will he knows yet he is one of the haters

@@billjames1216how does he hate? Bc he has a different opinion? Which international star had he trashed?

@@alonzojones9626 If u don't watch his takes on first things first I can't help u sorry

Nah he was pretty objective

You definitely not American 😂💀 you could had just stated your opinion without faking it lil bro.

​@@Whitetooth1030calling someone lil bro, while using emojis makes you look like the little bro.

@@ECD92don’t you know that the more emojis you use, the more that the person you are replying to is wrong?? Like bruh omg bruh lol like lol no cap bruh ☠️☠️☠️☠️😭😭😭😭🙏🙏👀☠️ like you don’t know basketball lol bruh ☠️☠️🙏😂 - RU-vid comments

It's called communism. thats how 13 year olds go pro in foreign countries. State-sponsored athletics, ever heard of it?

Well there's also 300 million people in usa and 6 billion internationally

ikr

Is it true whats the context, what teams did they play? How good was the defense played legit questions

​@@revilloteoj1934bro he dropped 73. It doesn't matter lol

@@robipindric7654 Him scoring 73 doesn't matter I agree

@@revilloteoj1934 tell me you hate a player without telling me you hate a player

It might be true but not one of those examples proved his point. Draymond doesn’t like Rudy specifically and has had animosity towards him for years. Harden talked about Giannis because he felt like he should be the MVP over him, it had nothing to do with him being European. And Gil says wild stuff all the time.

​very true@@rickyrobby8133

you mean the dude that constantly shits over luka?…

@@tolstoyed is that the only player he 💩's on?? I can name plenty of American players too

@@ToneFury i don’t know who are those american players, but he’s been hating on luka for a very long time. they gave harden and draymond as examples of this supposed hate towards international players - they’ve been both praising luka for ever, even these playoffs where he wasn’t at his best… having said that, i think rob’s constant disrespect of luka’s got more to do with him simply not knowing bb, than the fact luka is not american though. and those comments made by harden and draymond were for specific reasons as well, it just happens to be directed at international players because they’ve been dominating the league in recent years. it’s also an american league, so of course there’s going to be some bias… more so from the media and not the players who actually play the game and see what these international players bring to the table

Barry was in the ABA 68-69 thro 71-72. Luka is the first white player to lead in scoring since Pete Maravich in 76-77.

Interestingly they're both of Serb origin.

All true and well said.

Same here: perfectly said. Game is game, wherever you come from. (And Luka is HIM.)

Well you got us there 👈

Nick Fuentes acolytes are everywhere now

Stop playing the victim!

Black players male up the majority of the league so if their are non supporters of white players its unavoidable. Its sports. Not everyone want to be every white player's cheerleader. Get over it.

Black petty jeaulous athletes 😂

Stop playing the victimhood card! No one is against you, it is all in you dimwitted mind!

So for Rudy Gobert ?? I think it's both

So for Gobert?? I think it's both!!!

Explain the Goebert hate (which is way worse than anything Jokic faces). Explain the Giannis hate. The only people I've heard hate on Luka are white Americans.

No.... They are African decent, not American (black)

The world hasn't caught up it's investing outside of America and making the game weak.

He's a waycist punk

True..

He really does. He's a scumbag

Larry is average

@@andrewebb3283 had to be one dummy

yea it's terrible

English Premier League would love American Soccer players but NBA don't want European players.

Boxing, particularly the heavyweight division, is a perfect example of a sport that lost its U.S. following and future athletes. After decades of making the bouts inaccessible to the next generation of boxers via Pay-Per-View programming, young black Americans started turning to other sports. Once the likes of Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield started to retire/slow down in the 2000s, there was no U.S. pipeline to keep it going.

As they should, this is America, why push foreign people, you people are weird d riding foreign players rob

Its the young players not the old ones. 90's players have much more respect for european players thab todays players. Just my opinion.

@@tonyOn1ce Shaquille O'Neal came into the NBA in 1992, and he told Nikola Jokic in his face he thought Shai Gilgeous-Alexander deserved being league MVP over him.

@@michaeljohnson7945 Shaq is insecure because he think after Jokic's career is over he might overtake Shaq as the most dominant big man, Other 90's guys really appreciate europeans like Allen iverson for example said 'I've been compared to Ja Morant but this dude 'Luka' is on another level".

They do

​@revilloteoj1934 making the nba looking like scrubs. 2050 nba will be 50 percent white. Times change. The time is NOW. Just like Ukraine took over boxing.

He also hated on Giannis too for time...

SAS and Big Jerk are racists.

sas has always hated on non american players

@@jaytok7 He was hating on Wemby being No1 pick over Scoot Henderson 😂😂... He thinks SGA is an honorary 🇺🇲 cos he's 🇨🇦😂 He showed his bigoted nativist ass several times see his stupidity re Noah Lyles valid critiquing comments re World Champions status regards NBA & how he got pulled up re EPL being elite w/o English players dominating, insulting Nigerian basketball player & Ohtani & idea of best baseball player being Japanese & having to apologize soon after

stop it

Bingo

exactly. all these black guys are pissed a couple of white guys are the best in the league. Cooper Flagg will get a ton of hate when he gets to the league

No it absolutely involves Giannis, have you not heard of the stuff gilbert arenas said about Giannis and Rudy gobert

Gobert was just voted the most overrated player in the league, so its definetely a Europe thing.

The comments on Gobert says otherwise

he wasn't necessarily wrong 😂😂

That makes their narrative of this Era better stronger faster get debunked if two slow white guys dominating them.

He basically said all euros should be banned from the league. His comments over the past month have been wild.

Gil is straight up EMBARRASSING. He is xenophobic af. He doesn't even hide it. Should be embarrassed by some of his takes.

Gil is a walking hot take person. 😢 racist as well. Joker The worst mvp in 40 years????? Are u kidding me? Dude never stat pad just trying his best to make his team win. He couldn’t be bother about the awards. 😢😢😢😢

When other nations start having most of their roster as nba players, that’s when you know the US will face competition. Until then, the US will continue to be the favorite for many summers. But it may need to take a loss in the Olympics first the US to wake up. Happened before.

That's a fact, especially LeBron

They don’t get interviewed. It’s ex players and ex football players especially who are hating. First take is a great example of hating on euros. If Paul & Rachel wasn’t on there it would be unwatchable garbage.

Duncan is American.

Exactly.

Hakeem was from Africa, Tony Parker, Pau Gasol, and Peja Stojakovic are European, Manu Ginobili is South American. Jamal Murray, Andrew Wiggins, and Tristan Thompson are all Canadian.

@@BigginsInAmerica I'm speaking specifically to the face of the franchise who carries the weight and only those who are the primary source of a championship that's been won, if you want to include Tony Parker ok, he did win finals mvp but he wasn't the face, as far as Hakeem, it's been 30yrs exact and he's actually my favorite center of all time, my point was that including Hakeem, Duncan, Dirk, Greek and Jokic, they are the only foreign face of the franchise players who have lead their teams to the championship so there's nothing really to hate on and no one hated Dirk for beating 3 all-star black guys in Miami, Perkins had his opnion which I personally don't agree with, black people are not a monolithic!!!! The media and nba podcast stirred this narrative. From my coworkers through the babershop to the cookout, no discussion I've been apart of has ever had a hatred towards foreign or yt players, we loved "white chocolate, are there some haters, of course but there will always be a percentage of something no matter what it pertains to.

yea bring back the og authentics with no sponsors

Facts ...Rob just does hot takes now, he no longer deals with actual research

Think it was pre-game … then Mitchell had an awesome game… and during post game interview Shaq tried to fend it off by saying it was intentional so to motivate him… whatever shaq

It's rude to our guests.

Weird isn't it

They’re both playing in the same league so how is that a dig on American players? Weak take

Nice try goofy

They play in both. They are stating that the differences in the rules make playing in Europe more difficult. America should dominate global play but they lost fiba in 2019 and 2023

Exactly. A lot of people got to understand the context of what he said.

Too coddled like Ben Simmons

R u American?

I have no idea where you got that from. For one the US still dominates basketball, it just so happens some of the TOP players aren’t American. Even then Jokic isn’t the best because of how “talented” he is, most of the lost “talented” players in the NBA are American.

@@rickyrobby8133 that’s not true. Europe has more quality over here than the quality the US has. The top 5 players in the NBA are international players. The next upcoming superstar is a European. The DPOY is a European.

I think they just take it for granted

"This isn't Nam , Smokey ! There are rules !"

What the hell are you talking about. Smdh!

SWEEPING STATEmENT

lolol how times have you pasted this already

We all know the only reason you have agreed with him lately...

Wonder why 🤔

Not true the media is hating on jokic he loses 2 games and they were praising ant edwards like he's better than jokic he's a 3time mvp and he gets no respect

Exactly how are they being hated on while winning every award

Jokic the best player in the world he loses one game now ant edwards is betternao media are clowns

Shut up ninja 🥷 this got nothing to do with international players 🫵🏽🫵🏽

Getting involved in social justice nonsense caused ratings and viewership to tank.

Dropping Regular Season ratings is on the players . You never know if they even gonna play and when they play it is 3 quarters of chucking 3s and maybe some defence in the 4th !

I guess he wasn't pissed tonight.

@@HardCold-Alquan what the hell are you talking about? He was the only one showing up. His teammates didn't. Get your eyes checked.

The James Harden one has context behind it though. Giannis said something first about Harden and pretty much Harden didn’t like it.

@@rasonfrancis5068 that's fine but mvp isn't about skill which is why I thought it was disrespectful and dumb.

Harden's take was true, because Giannis plays out of position and just runs to the basket over people. he has no game other than that, and if he were not big and from Greece, he would not have gotten any press. They all used to say that he needed to DEVELOP a jump shot, meaning that he can't shoot the ball, and they know it.

@@HardCold-Alquan what that have to do with mvp though is what I'm saying

@@2BRN2Byea but he wasn’t talking about him being mvp. Giannis took aim at him saying the game plan in thr all star game was to give the ball to whoever James harden was guarding. Which was the second time he took a shot at hardens game.

Racism runs in the family, eh 👌🏻

Jokic dominated all the black boye

Very true 🤣

​@kasperkilos407 what happen against the Timberwolves, guess he was too fatigued this time 🤣🤣🤣

​@@revilloteoj1934wolves are getting a taste of that white privilege now. Go Luka

By calling him a cheater ? Is that a lie ?

No. His was more entertainment meaning he zigs since everyone else zags in the media about brady and to be honest, its refreshing and good banter. Someone has to play that side. The media is intentionally not trying to give the non-black international players their flowers the same way they do american born stars. Stephen and shaq have disrespected jokic to where its too obvious. SAS had tatum as his mvp, then sga. When jokic should have won his 4th straight mvp this year. Its embarassing

@@universe-ie2mk The media zigs when everyone zags lol What rob did to brady, the media is doing to international players

you will still be watching lol.

Let’s stay on topic bud

No he not, international players are trash

With a little acting for Morris

I thought he was too fatigued 🤣🤣🤣

The black community doesn’t get the $

Lol, they leave once they get some money. Also, their hoods rob them once they get a bit of money.

The irony is the rich black players. Who hate on the white players. Haven’t lived in a black community since their first nba check!🤣🤣🤣🤣 The dim light bulbs hate white people but live around nothing but white people! Lmaooooooo!

Yeah Bron be getting a lot and I’m not even a big fan of Bron like that Greatness comes with haters there’s isn’t gonna be a special exception for the European players

Lebron deserves more "hate" then he gets for all his nonsense.

Found the emotional bron Stan

@@JM-qn3tffacts rob up there emotional asl

Lebron is a whiner

Was Magic a great defender or Steph ?

@@soda8736 Both were above average.

Many USA fans rip Steph for being a poor defender all the time.

@Adrian-bn2xe He's not a lock down defender but it's been a long time since teams have targeted him on defense.

@@Adrian-bn2xesteph is a bad defender, kyrie doesnt play defense, harden never has played defense, westbrook is a below avg defender, lebron hasnt plYed defense in like 10 years, melo, the list goes on. plenty of legends couldnt defend too. barkley, arenas (lol), matter of fact, hardly anyone played defense in the early 2000s. Iverson. I bet OP thinks all these players are “real hoopers”

I disagree. Draymond doesn’t like Rudy because of personal reasons. It isn’t because he’s an international player.

@@rickyrobby8133🙄🤡

@@rickyrobby8133 yeah okay that's why he has to say "wee wee" "pee pee" 😂😂😂 y'all sole cornballs

@@user-ie7vw7uq7v I didn’t say that he didn’t make fun of him for being French. I said that isn’t the reason he dislikes him. For example, I can make fun of someone for looking weird, but that doesn’t mean that is the reason I don’t like them.

@@rickyrobby8133 doesnt matter, if I go up there and say he's sitting there doing his Ching Chong because he's Asian, im clearly trying to make fun of him because hes not from here. Americans are just so used to making fun of people with no repercussions. Born and raised here for 29 almost 30 years, I know how it goes

They didn't change it for euros tho the rule changes happened when there wasn't even any euro stars to begin with he's hating

Dilbert is a racist.
