ESPN's Stephen A. Smith recently caught some heat for sharing a tweet about Kim Kardashian.

"Is Kim Kardashian a 'prostitute'? Is Kris Jenner a 'pimp'? read the message, which probably has to do with Kim's sex tape with Ray J, and Ray saying it was all Kris' idea. 

One of the people who criticized the message was the NBA's Patrick Beverly.

Not cool. She has kids. Should not be the tittle or topic. https://t.co/9y12rHzHal

"Not cool. She has kids. Should not be the tittle or topic," wrote Beverly.

Smith then said it was all a mistake.

Clerical error bro. You are absolutely right. That is being corrected right now as we speak. And for the record, I don’t think of @KimKardashian that way nor would I ever speak of her or any woman that way, which I’ve stated. That’s for checking that issue. https://t.co/PYYAen6mPZ

"Clerical error bro," he claimed. "You are absolutely right.  That is being corrected right now as we speak. And for the record, I don’t think of @KimKardashian that way nor would I ever speak of her or any woman that way, which I’ve stated. That’s for checking that issue."
