I can understand why asians could be offended, because NBA is a professional sport. Since its a professional sport, the players should act professionaly, maybe add some rivaly but nothing that is aimed to attack a person's background. Shaq should be shot for saying racist comments like that.
BTW this did happen, i saw the tape on FOX sports center
