    JR Smith $90m career earnings compared to Dekkers $9m career earnings.

    Give me JR's privilege any day.

    I don't think you understand what privilege means.

    JR earned that 90 mil. privilege is getting something that you didn't have to work for.

    Unfortunately JR doesn’t wear his money on his face and body to hide the “value” most people see when they see a black man and they see a white man. Just look at how the police, employers, Karen’s, or even you in this instance reacted. You got called out because you proved his point

    regardless of how “woke” you try to be just don’t get it man...


    Exactly, some of the latte sipping hipsters here are actually some of the most racist, uninformed fools. Through their eyes and how they’ve been raised privilege and value are only through money. Some people have to carry the value of their bank acct on their face everyday and I feel for them. It’s not some movement or fad these movement chasers tag along with to be cool and woke. I think JR smith is a douchebag immature man child. But he had a point here and it’s funny when you see people miss it

    You even refer to them as earnings. You realize that right?

    I'd take JR's career and ring over Dekker's all time NBA highlight of tripping and bouncing the ball off his face on a free dunk attempt too.
