Y’all are so mean. I personally embrace my refs, and support their stupid and ridiculous calls with all my love and admiration. #Loverefs #Blindnessiskindness. Jokes aside, this is great for the league, I’m not a major supporter of representation in everything (E.G Swifties trying to make Taylor gay), that being said the NBA like all sports leagues has a history of discrimination against queer people, as demonstrated by zero NBA players actively coming out as queer. I hope Che helps normalise queer people in basketball, that being said if they screw with my team I’m hating on their ugly ass eyebrows.
