The most interesting story in the NBA this week was the news of former NBA center John Amaechi admitting that he is gay . Personally, I've got no problem with it, but i think the story is being overblown a bit since he is a retired athlete. An athlete coming out of the closet while still playing, now that's a story.
When this story broke, you knew that would be some "interesting" comments coming from current NBA player Here are some of them...
Steven Hunter 76ers
"For real? He's gay for real? Nowadays it's proven that people can live double lives. I watch a lot of TV, so I see a lot of sick perverted stuff about married men running around with gay guys and all types of foolishness."
Ray Allen Sonics
"You don't want to know that there is somebody in your locker room and you are not aware of it. And maybe you had to be careful being where you put yourself in a situation where you might get hit on by a teammate."
LeBron James Cavs
"It's something I'd have to evaluate. You take showers together, you're on the bus, you talk about things. With teammates, you have to be trustworthy. If you're gay and you're not admitting that you are, you're not trustworthy. It's the locker room code; it's a trust factor".
My personal favorite....
Shavlick Randolph 76ers
"As long as you don't bring your gayness on me I'm fine,"
Shavlick Randolph: Not a fan of gayness
