Nets' owner Joe Tsai takes aim at Stephen A. Smith for insensitive remarks about Angels' Shohei Ohtani

Stephen A. Smith put his foot in his mouth yet again this week and received blowback from a number of notable celebrities including Nets owner, Joe Tsai.

Smith, who questioned how Shohei Ohtani could be the face of baseball with a language barrier, deserves whatever is coming his way.

Stephen A. Smith on Shohei Ohtani: "I don't think it helps that the number one face is a dude that needs an interpreter so you can understand what the hell he's saying in this country."

The insinuation is insulting to immigrants of all countries, but particular Asian-Americans, a group from which Tsai belongs to. Brooklyn's owner had a witty and direct shot at Smith's ignorant comment.

I’d like to listen to both. They do call it “The World Series” don’t they? @stephenasmith https://t.co/cZRWY6VsAe
