Why do some nba players can't digest the fact that NBA is now ruled by European superstars? I just listened Arenas and Kenyon Martin debating whether Luka is the best player on the Mavs. (alien.top)

I know Espn 100 is wack. But I would rather let them vote for top 100 than these clown experts who think just because they played the game their opinion somehow weighs higher. Most of these former (especially veteran) players just keep on hating the European players and try to minimise their game by saying that the game has gone soft. Its just ridiculous they can't give them their flowers.

I think from a marketability standpoint the NBA would like to have a domestic player that will appeal more to domestic fans. If we're being honest here, bonus points if they're white (we can't understate how huge Larry Bird was in the 80's).

I think the league was tapping Ja for that role, but after the gun shit that's off the table. Ant could maybe take that role but the homophobic slurs certainly isn't a good start.
