I saw a video recently where a panel was arguing that the NBA is purposefully soft(er) to make room for more Europeans. The argument was that there are good offensive Europeans (Luka) but they typically can’t play defense.Arenas says "Europeans" should be banned from the league, but he clearly means "whites". I guarantee he would rather see the league taken over by blacks from Europe than stateside honkeys.
Race aside, Europe is simply outclassing us in terms of player development. Even the best blacks are being developed there now. The "old days" of thuggish American blacks and hip hop culture dominating basketball are slipping away, and he is demonstrating a typical reaction to change from an aging person. It's not surprising.
I've noticed a similar jealousy with Caitlyn Clark on the womens side. You can find countless examples, but here's a particularly egregious example:

With Caitlin Clark headed to the WNBA, JuJu Watkins and Hannah Hidalgo will be the faces of the women's game - a sport built by Black players.www.usatoday.com
Edit: if that video was already shared above or I saw it here, my apologies.
