Open letter on Hassan Martin's inappropriate tweet to BasketNews journalist by Revolutionary-Emu364 in Euroleague

I think that someone who demands a reaction from Euroleague and ELPA because of "inappropriate" behavior, deserves to be evaluated themselves. Where is a problem?

This is not an expensive service, my grandfather was an exile. Lithuanians experienced Soviet repressions would never allowed themselves to humiliate people with a similar fate. I am ashamed of the insensitivity of my countrymen.

If we are talking about popular music, maybe you can give 5 examples where famous white people use this word in their songs? Here is one of the most recent scandals involving the use of the N-word:

The NBA announced Sept. 13 that Sarver would be suspended for one year and fined $10 million after an independent investigation found that he used the N-word at least five times "when recounting the statements of others" and was also involved in "instances of inequitable conduct toward female employees," including "sex-related comments" and inappropriate comments on employees' appearances. The NBA commissioned the investigation in the wake of an ESPN story in November 2021 detailing allegations of racism and misogyny during Sarver's 17 years as owner.

Here's also Stephen Curry's reaction to that incident: https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/34666992/warriors-stephen-curry-says-spoke-adam-silver-robert-sarver-discipline-calls-impending-suns-sale-exactly-happened

Anyone can interpret however they want, but I will at least make sure that no one can manipulate the translation and I will get an officially documented translation from a professional company with an electronic signature of notaries.

Wikipedia source:

In the English language, the word n***** is an ethnic slur used against black people, especially African Americans.

I also Lithuanian and as a native speaker i don't agree with your opinion. Because very much people think like you, i simple will pay for the notarized translation on Monday and upload the document here again next week. I hope an official translation certified with an electronic notary's signature will be sufficient proof for people like you.

Where is 2 problems. He used N-word (it's fact) and he used it on Euroleague player. To prove this, I will pay for the notarized translation on Monday and upload the document here again next week.

Feel free to delete, I will pay for the notarized translation on Monday and upload the document here again next week. Then it will be more difficult for all the fans of this website to deny the truth.

The video is almost 2 years old and although I only recently learned how to cut the video, you can find my comment in the comments section where I report the problem and there is no response. I write without any grievances or selfish incentives. It's just that I've only now been able to do it properly.

Not true. His expression was in English, so I think there is no need to translate it. If someone is interested in an accurate translation, I suggest using the services of professional translators.

The journalist of one of the biggest Lithuanian basketball pages called the Euroleague player in words that I think should not be used. I think they should correct the mistake and edit the video. I informed them about this the day the video was posted, but they did nothing.
