Throwback:
Who is this clown who is making stupid excuses for the pathological liar?


Nigerians are not even the majority of foreigners playing in the NBA, no to talk of the outlandish claim by Obi.
I've been following NBA since 1987, I know majority of the players are black but I can not name 50 of them that are Nigerians talk less of 100.
I think this guy can give us a reference to prove his point

Fucking repugnant lying Okoro. Even on NBA websites, nowhere can you find any figure close to that. The highest Nigeria has ever had at any time playing for the NBA, whose total players per time doesn't exceed 450 typically, is 5!!

So how the hell is 5 out of 450 a significant number, let alone 66.66% which is what 100 out of 150 represents?

The problem with lying is that, in defending a lie,you've gotta lie some more, and in the end, you wind up with a mountain of lies which even a teaspoon could demolish in seconds.

You Okoros should be humble for once and admit your faults. No one expects Gringori to be perfect, after all, he's human. But this thing about defending every error of his to be the right thing is sickening. He makes mistakes just like the rest of us. Accept that fact and move on.

grin grin grin
Your opening alone make me crack ribs.

Omenka, This is powerful, the whole post is loaded.

These people are way out of their damn minds. It's terrible they simply can't accept the man has flaws just as do all humans. They must paint a picture of a God of him, just as they did Kanu whom they've now abandoned. The risk with this sort of attitude is that it makes dictators out of men.

If they say he is right, then it means the remaining 33.33% of NBA players are shared between Asians, Europeans, Native Americans, South Americans, etc.

How the hell is this possible?

The most enduring heritage of these Pandora fanatics is their unapologetic foolishness.

Obi has told many lies that I am now wondering if we ought not to reopen his past for examinations to see how far and deep the deceptions are.

Obi is too much. grin

Thanksful:


He meant, the League is dominated by black and black Americans who has Nigerian origin.

OT

Oga, rest.

What Peter Obi said was wrong information (100 players out of 150 NBA players are Nigerians, meaning Nigerians make-up two-thirds of NBA players!)



There's no need to twist it or defend it. Peter Obi gives alot of Statistics that have been proved to be wrong.

Misterone:
you guys like twisting and turning like snakes. There's a difference between "over 150 Nigerians have played in the NBA" and "100 out of every 150 NBA player is a Nigerian". Obi lied, let him retract his statement. It is not a crime to make mistake but it is when you know you made a mistake and you continue telling lies to cover it up.

Are you a PO in the first place? Will it make you refuse to vote the fraudulent kleptocrat and druggie of bourdillon? grin

This one self is deceiving himself, you are saying out of 150 players 100 are from Nigeria meaning USA, mexico, Canada etc are amongst the remaining 50.
ok I hear you.

I followed the NBA for sometime and I can't believe this.

And besides what he his saying is different from what Obi said.
the Twitter account is fake

I watched PO live and I must say it was an honest mistake which is normal.

For a start, in NBA season 30 teams are represented with each it having 15 players each which makes 450 players and not 150 players. NB: 390 players are active in a given season.

What I think PO meant to say is that, out of 150 Africans that have played in the NBA 100 are Nigerians.

PO made an honest mistake

Honest mistake? At this statement you are not different from femi adeshina, lai and garuba shehu.should we now called cassava and agbado as corn flakes and cassava flakes
