No one is perfect in remembering every detail about every team in every sport, but if your job is focused on that, get it right or get off the air.
I agree on nobody being perfect. However it only took 10 seconds to find out how many black head coaches the Celtics have had. IMO Williams was trying to bring race even more to the forefront and hoping nobody would fact check him. If you need more proof of that being a possibility....Williams was signed to a 10 day contract by the Celtics during one of his comeback efforts and the coach at the time was.....Doc Rivers.

Well he has claimed "he didnt post that, and he has changed his password". So he is going with the OLD...."I WAS HACKED".

I wonder how Bill Russell, Satch Sanders, KC Jones, and Doc Rivers feel about being told by Jay Williams and ESPN: "You ain't black!"

I would bet they didn't like it. I'd also bet that none of those guys will publicly correct Williams either. One of those guys he failed to mention in his ignorance (I don't believe for a second that he was hacked) was also the first black head coach in the NBA.

I am impervious to this kind of information. I could give a rat's ass about basketball and every shit smeared thing that is attached to it. LeBron James would make a great light bulb changer - no ladder needed. I would hire him all the time.

Yeah but you'd probably have to explain to him how to screw in a lightbulb every single time.
