Former Miami Heat guard Tim Hardaway said on a radio show Wednesday afternoon that he would not want a gay player on his team.

"You know, I hate gay people, so I let it be known," Hardaway said. "I don't like gay people and I don't like to be around gay people. I am homophobic. I don't like it. It shouldn't be in the world or in the United States."

Hardaway was a guest of Miami Herald columnist Dan Le Betard on the Miami radio show Sports Talk 790 and was asked how he would deal with a gay teammate. When asked if he would accept an active player's coming out, such as that of retired NBA center John Amaechi, Hardaway replied: "First of all, I wouldn't want him on my team.

"And second of all, if he was on my team, I would, you know, really distance myself from him because, uh, I don't think that's right. And you know I don't think he should be in the locker room while we're in the locker room. I wouldn't even be a part of that," he said.

Hardaway later apologized for the remarks during a telephone interview with Fox affiliate WSVN in Miami.

"Yes, I regret it. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said I hate gay people or anything like that," he said. "That was my mistake."

Hardaway, who was in Las Vegas on Tuesday at a pre-All Star Game NBA Cares outreach event, was both a coach and player for the ABA's Florida Pit Bulls in 2006.

Hardaway played for five NBA teams from 1990-2003 and was a five-time All-Star. He finished with averages of 17.7 points and 8.2 assists.

ESPN.com - NBA - Tim Hardaway says 'I hate gay people'

He needs to shut up and go fuck himself. :;
 
How dumb is he? He says all these in a national broadcast and then apologize for it to try to undo the damage. Sorry...damage has been done.
 
Anyone with that much homophobia has to be pretty insecure in their own sexuality! Maybe he's just a little attracted to same sex, and puts on a big show so no one will suspect.
 
Blah... He's stupid and need get life.

How true. There has been quite a number of anti-homosexuality advocates who got busted with a giglo or a minor.
 
Jeez Tim is disrespect but he have to learn deal with gay player no matter what that way who he is *smh*
 
Either he's dumbass or he s looking for attention. He never won anything when he was playing.

Stern , NBA's boss, just banned him from participle in any NBA events. Good riddance.
 
He already regret for negative gay people or anything like that. He admitted his mistake....

It's good that he admitted his mistake...
 
Rofl... What's his problem. I have a few gay friends and they're normal like everyone else. Some of em just act like a chick(some of em), hell they even hit on me rofl. I wish people had a little more tolerance. Sure we all have people we don't like, we have a right to not like them but that doesn't mean we have to be pricks about it.
 
Tim Hardaway will probably get the hard way because of his reputation is possibly ruined. Shame on him. He has a very very low tolerence.
 
everyone make mistake it's okay especially hollywood actors and player stars so what.. Tim learned from mistake.. (shrug)
 
If his future son is gay, will he avoid his son too? What a dumbass faggot

LOL. yea he s faggot allright :D

On espn website, there was a poll abt Do NBA players agree with his statment. 68percent of pp say yes. So there are still bigots out there.

BS. He s doing it to save his face. I would believe his apologize IF he joins gay organization and promote gay awareness.
