NBA turmoil with commentators attacking Kevin Porter’s buzzer beater for his father

The Rockets’ Kevin Porter is back after a penalty shootout against the Wizards. And he was the hero of the night, because with his own threesome the Wizards took the victory with 111-114. But it was an attack by the broadcaster’s commentator reporting the Washington Games that caused a stir in the United States.

The speech for Glen Connor, who described the repetition of the phase, said: ““Like his father, Kevin Porter pulled the trigger at the right time.”

But why the riot? The answer is simple: The Rockets Guard father, also known as Kevin Porter, was sentenced to four years in prison for shooting and killing a 14-year-old girl – he himself claimed the gun he shot for it and received such a small sentence – and was later murdered in a bar in 2004 when someone shot him five times after an argument. As it turned out, the reference to Porter’s father was certainly (at least) unfortunate and could have ramifications for the Wizards commentator.

There is another side to the story. The one who claims that Consor probably had the impression that the father of the Rockets Guard was former NBA player Kevin Porter, who played in the NBA from 1972 to 1983 and wore the jersey of the Washington Bullets (now Wizards), among other things). ) during the four years 1979-1983 and was considered one of the best passers-by of his generation. In any case, it is clear that Consor is doing very badly after this comment.
