Stuck in the middle of this fairly generic AP article about All-Star weekend is an interesting note from Gavin Maloof, who, along with his brother Joe, owns the Sacramento Kings. Gavin Maloof, whose family owns the Sacramento Kings, said he wouldn't allow a player on his team who shared Hardaway's views.That gets into some interesting territory; the firing of an employee for a personal belief. It is true that Tim Hardaway has the right to feel how he feels, but it's also true that Gavin Maloof has a right to choose who represents his organization. If he doesn't want his Kings represented by someone preaching hate, that's his prerogative.
"What he said was wrong," Maloof said. "I'm sure he's apologized but the damage has been done and he never should have said it."
But surely, somewhere along the line, the Sacramento Kings organization has had at least one (and in all likelihood, many more) player who shares Tim Hardaways thoughts on homosexuals. Fortunately for all the individuals involved (and unfortunately for those who seek an open discussion of the matter) none of those hypothetical players shared their opinions out loud.The Maloof Brothers Wouldn't Employ a Homophobe
