Why Did He Have to Apologize?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>During the Golden State Warriors vs. San Antonio Spurs game on Monday night, former NBA player Tim Hardaway said an ugly remark. During the &#8220;Run TMC&#8221; program, three former Warriors stars\u2014Hardaway, Chris Mullin, and Mitch Richmond\u2014were recognized. The Hall of Famer called the game&#8217;s play-by-play and served as an analyst. Unfortunately, his remarks can affect his broadcasting job in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>This was a unique broadcast in the Bay Area because Kelenna Azubuike, a former Warrior, and Bob Fitzgerald typically serve as the play-by-play announcers.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5WGbGt59SAw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, viewers got to hear Hardaway make a derogatory statement about a Draymond Green steal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ALSO READ: <a title=\"Golden State Warriors Coach Steve Kerr Reveals Relegating 7\u20331\u2032 Superstar to G League; Player Reacts\" href=\"https:\/\/yebscore.com\/news\/golden-state-warriors-coach-steve-kerr-reveals-relegating-71-superstar-to-g-league-player-reacts\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Golden State Warriors Coach Steve Kerr Reveals Relegating 7\u20331\u2032 Superstar to G League; Player Reacts<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Tim Hardaway makes a distasteful statement<\/h2>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what Hardaway said:<em> \u201cSo y\u2019all thought that was great D?\u201d Hardaway said during the game. \u201cI thought that was just r*ping him.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s hardly surprising that many fans were taken aback by this statement because it was so out of the ordinary. The five-time All-Star did, however, acknowledge his error and subsequently expressed regret. It&#8217;s reasonable to assume that Hardaway won&#8217;t be speaking in front of the camera for very long after that comment.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cHey everybody, I used a poor choice of words earlier in the broadcast I wanna apologize for that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tim Hardaway apologizes for his use of the word \u201crape\u201d while covering the Warriors-Spurs game.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7LdiUPdfxb\">pic.twitter.com\/7LdiUPdfxb<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ClutchPoints\/status\/1592387274188402688?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 15, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;I used a poor choice of words earlier in the broadcast.

The point guard was entertaining to watch and crushed his opponents despite not winning a championship. It felt ideal to have him call Warriors games as an analyst. Sadly, he committed a mistake that could make producers hesitate before bringing him back on TV.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More NBA news:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"entry-title\"><a title=\"LeBron James is Far Behind Soccer Legends Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi When it Comes to Instagram Earnings\" href=\"https:\/\/yebscore.com\/news\/lebron-james-is-far-behind-soccer-legends-cristiano-ronaldo-and-lionel-messi-when-it-comes-to-instagram-earnings\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">LeBron James is Far Behind Soccer Legends Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi When it Comes to Instagram Earnings<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"entry-title\"><a title=\"HBO Drops Trailer For Shaquille O\u2019Neal documentary: He Dreamed Of Being A Rapper, A Basketball Player And Rich\" href=\"https:\/\/yebscore.com\/news\/hbo-drops-trailer-for-shaquille-oneal-documentary-he-dreamed-of-being-a-rapper-a-basketball-player-and-rich\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">HBO Drops Trailer For Shaquille O\u2019Neal documentary: He Dreamed Of Being A Rapper, A Basketball Player And Rich<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"entry-title\"><a title=\"Giannis Antetokounmpo Gives The World A Fair Warning On Victor Wembanyama\" href=\"https:\/\/yebscore.com\/news\/giannis-antetokounmpo-gives-the-world-a-fair-warning-on-victor-wembanyama\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Giannis Antetokounmpo Gives The World A Fair Warning On Victor Wembanyama<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/yebscore.com\/news\/nba\/\"><strong><em>Follow our NBA page for more key NBA updates and news<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the Golden State Warriors vs. San Antonio Spurs game on Monday night, former NBA player Tim Hardaway said an ugly remark.
