Dr. J was my dad's favorite player. Growing up in the Jordan era he constantly reminded me that Dr. J was the man before MJ. I got a chance to meet him at the airport back in 2013 in NY and told him if my dad was alive how jealous he would be that I'm able to shake his favorite basketball player's hand. Super nice guy.

It was easier back then, Jordan definitely had the rules changed for his benefit, the past is the past Old Head. This is the Present.

[@evifnoskcaj]

Unbelievable player and a wise and strong man. Dr. J is a living legend and the wisdom and truth he is speaking here needs to be heard. The NBA needs to do a lot more to acknowledge the inequality that took place and to give even more credit where credit is well do. This isn't getting political, this is teaching history, and the harsh truth is important to hear and aught to be taught, not banned, ignored, disrespected, and discredited. Props to Shaq for making this happen!

[@paulmarc-aurele5508]

I am a white old guy, grew up watching the NBA in the 60’S and 70’S watching the great players, but most of us wanted to play like Doc. It irritates me that you had to deal with the ignorance and hate, glad you were better than that, and it’s my hope that soon it will be gone.

Unfortunately it will never die its been here in this country since this country was founded racism is taught an passed along to the next generation of racist peoples children an they pass their racist beliefs on to their children an so on an so on it just changes forms, it went from slavery to jim crow after slavery to the not so in your face racism it is today, but given the right opportunity it rears its head up in this country to let you know racism is still very much alive in this country, an alot of white people who aren't racist don't want to admit or recognize that it still effects black people in this country because it doesn't an has never effected them so they either don't notice or willfully over look it because they don't want to stir the pot an stand up for what is right which is part of the reason it will never go away in this country, but we are all going to stand before God an be judged for what we did an didn't do to make this world a better place to live in.

Peter learned a valuable lesson depicted in Acts 10:34 and it is a reminder for all of us who know God that due to our imperfection and the influence described at 1 John 5:19 we need to be unbiased .

(1:00)Shaq this is great I have the blueprint on what Dr. J is talking is speaking about. Shaq, this is fantastic! I've grasped the essence of what Dr. J is articulating. It's a new era in the African diaspora, and the conversation aligns with contemporary sentiments. Dr. J is spot on; although the timing may not have been ideal in his era, but now is the perfect moment. We can reach people on a global network. Furthermore, there's a vision to assemble this globally, forming a $40 trillion economic network within the diaspora. I possess the template or blueprint, which revolves around learning the history, starting from the ancient black Pharaohs of Kemet/Egypt. This approach has the potential to unite the African diaspora on a global scale. Love to share the outlines.
