反猶風波一時難以平靜 McCollum認為Irving不了解自身行為的嚴重性
先是老闆與聯盟主席發聲,接著是球隊祭出禁賽處份,然後是球鞋贊助商暫停合作。雖然Kyrie Irving最終正式道歉了,但這起反猶風波似乎一時難以平靜,紐奧良鵜鶘後衛也是球員工會主席CJ McCollum也提出了自己的看法。
McCollum認為關鍵在於Irving第一時間不了解自身行為的嚴重性,後續的道歉以及從中學習到的經驗也很重要。
引用“他現在表現出了同理心,我認為這是一次學習經歷,他不理解這部電影的重要性,因為他沒有看過它。我認為他不了解受此影響的人群規模,他們如何受到影響還有仇恨傳播的速度有多快,以及這會如何形成越滾越大的雪球效應。”
“我們可以肯定的這麼說,Kyrie和我們所有人,尤其是我,可以明確的表達譴責任何形式的反猶太主義。我特別反對它,我特別相信促進平等和包容的多樣性。”
McCollum還強調他發表聲明的時間較為延遲,是因為需要在發表意見之前收集好關於此事件的所有訊息。
在最近各界抨擊Irving爭議的聲音中很少是現役NBA球員,Robin Lopez是第一位發聲的球員,他轉發了一篇譴責這位籃網球星的文章。另外LeBron James也公開提到,他希望前搭檔能夠理解自身行為“對很多人造成了傷害。”

引用The Kyrie Irving antisemitic film controversy has been rocking the NBA headlines of late. NBPA president CJ McCollum finally weighed in on the matter after the scandal had taken several turns, including the suspension of the Brooklyn Nets star.
The New Orleans Pelicans guard believes that what’s important is that Irving is not repentant after his Instagram post on the matter, via ESPN:
“He’s displayed empathy now,” McCollum said. “I think this is a learning experience in which I don’t think he understood the magnitude of the movie because he didn’t watch it. I don’t think he understood the magnitude of the people that were affected, how they were impacted and how fast hate can spread and how this can snowball.”
“It’s safe to say that we know that Kyrie and all of us — me specifically, I can speak for myself — specifically condemn antisemitism in any form,” CJ McCollum continued. “I am specifically against it. I specifically believe in promoting equality, diversity of inclusion.”
