Chris Paul’s preference is to stay with the Clippers but he wants them to hire an African-American coach, according to multiple league sources. The Clips’ best bet for keeping Paul with a long-term deal might be to hire Nate McMillan, who can have the Pistons job and any number of bad-to-so-so jobs that are out there, as the replacement for Vinny Del Negro, whose current contract is expiring and is not getting a new deal.

This was totally OK right?

LMAO

Hypocritical Black Americans....can't get out of their own way and will pull all stops for their double standard.

I would like to read or hear his actual quote and the context that it was in rather than something some sources say.

Yea because that is just something league circles make up out of thin air...

I'm trying to wrap my head around who benefits from that kind of conjecture. Aside from a black coach...which is exactly what materialized.

There's no doubt a double standard is applied with blacks being able to say and do things white couldn't do. Jay Z is part owner of the Nets and support a super racist organization that is a black comparable to the KKK .

The Nazi Gestapo thought PC Police are empowered and looking to cleanse people that don't support the PC Nazis.

Whites make more money than blacks for doing the same job and do less time for committing the same crime. You NEVER hear right-wingers complain about that double standard.

Yep. Until you can attribute that comment directly to him, you're wasting our time...and yours.

Get his confirmation and get back to us.

I'd like more than "according to multiple league sources". Don't be cowards. If he said it and you know he did, man up and put your name to it.

having said that, if races were reversed, the headline would've been"white player demands white coach". So this is a double standard whether it's true or not. But of course, there won't be anyone in the media concerned about this and digging for the truth

I didn't see anything in the article saying he doesn't want to play for a white coach, or that he hates white people.

You're wasting your own time responding here. You have unraveled in the last two days. LOL

Chris Paul could have screamed it from the top of the mountain and you would have applauded him for not "tommin'" it up, right?

Look, he definitely said it. As soon as Doc Rivers was hired...Paul was cemented in and canceled all of his scheduled visits to other teams.

He said it.

Who benefits from making this up?

I didn't hear anything in Sterlings recording saying he hates black people. Did you?
