    This is right up there with Jalen saying he hates Duke becuase they only recruit white boys and uncle Toms like Grant Hill. Hillarious that he leads with strip clubs when describing the best cities for blacks. So Atlanta is #2?

    Top 2 cities for Asians are LA and Bay Area. Then there's a huge drop off and you got NYC and maybe Toronto (assuming we are talking NBA cities because Vancouver is up there). Boston is totally not an asian city. Asians go there for school (MIT/Harvard) and then they're out to either NY or LA.

    Top city if you are not Asian and have the yellow fever like Metta World Peace is LA. He would probably even slumdog it and play for the Clippers if it meant he could stay in LA and hit the Asian clubs during the NBA season.

    Philadelphia tends to be in the news about racism as well.

    Don't forget Ginos who refuses to serve you if you don't speak English properly. And they have an American flag picture to back that up as if that's a patriotic thing to do.

    You're not allowed to talk about 'those people' from 'questionable neighborhoods'.

    I enjoyed the part where Simmons said, "This really helps Dwight Howard's case!" then Jacoby chimes in with, "Daryl Morey definitely told you to do this!" Lol! So true...

    yes if a white person was arrogant enough to speak for the players of a different race than his own, I'm sure there would be controversy.

    This is so weird to me, being an aussie.

    Isn't America founded by immigrants?
    I thought it was a great melting pot of different races.

    Which races are particularly made fun of?
    Asians?
    Hispanics?

    Everyone gets made fun of.

    Anyway, I've never been to a Houston strip club. Didn't realize I was missing out.

    Houston has been a top strip club city for a long time... $5 dollar table dance on Tuesday night's. It's some hard working ladies in this city.
