    Sources: NBA, union plan to paint 'Black Lives Matter' on courts in Orlando
    The NBA and National Basketball Players Association are planning to paint "Black Lives Matter" on the court inside both sidelines in all three arenas the league will use at the Walt Disney World Resort when it resumes the 2019-20 season late next month in Orlando, Florida, league sources told ESPN.


    The WNBA is also discussing painting "Black Lives Matter" on the court when it begins its abbreviated 2020 season at the IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida, sources said.

    I'll be watching the scoreboards, not the game

    If they want to continue to shove it down your throat, I'll find something else to watch.

            This is pissing off Latinos, Asians, Indians, Muslims, and so on now.

            A percentage of African-Americans vs the world (obviously not the ones who understand it's nonsense)

                If they worried half as much for bigger problems in the U.S, like Homeless, mental health and killing each other, just think how much America would be a better place.

                              The guy is 100% correct, but these people, corporations, including the NFL, NBA and the other sports league rather kiss their ars, and bow down to them.

                                      Sets up a real issue when it has to come down later or if a city/ county owned stadium denies this painting request.

                                        NBA is a predominantly black league now. BLM crap painted every where is kind of a given.

                                        Commercials will have it as well. Players will have BLM on their shoes and or uniforms also if I had to guess..

                                        Get use to seeing it in the NBA every where you look or don't watch is my suggestion..

                                            I am very interested to see how all of this graffiti around the country is going to affect the the number of murders this coming 4th of July weekend.

                                            Maybe they should be painting BLM on the streets in the areas where the most murders take place. Just an idea.

                                              I miss the days when sports were an escape from everyday problems. I watch more golf and bowling now than any of the major team sports (never thought I would ever do that). I'm just getting tired of all their crap.

                                                Excellent point

                                                It's not even about the sports anymore

                                                  Wondering if BLM is paying, or will eventually pay for this advertisement? Does anything outside of the nba's logo and teams go on a court without someone tossing them cash?

                                                      Great news! BLM logo on the NBA courts.

                                                      This foolishness will eventually end and when it does. We will all look back and realize how absurd all of this was.

                                                      Then what will be the excuses for there failures?

                                                      Don't worry because another black man will break the law and resist arrest and will be unintentionally killed by police. Then we will be right back to where we are today.

                                                      Wash, rinse and repeat.

                                                          This is going to put a serious crimp in my plans of not watching anyway. NBA has stunk for years

                                                            The BLM brand could be summed up succinctly by Hyman Roth's words from The Godfather:

                                                            "Right now, we're bigger than U.S. Steel."

                                                                You know who will be the next target in 20yrs?

                                                                Many African-Americans already accuse them of 'taking their jobs'.

                                                                Again, we're not talking about all African-Americans.

                                                                There are millions who have a clue and don't buy into or acknowledge BLM, white privilege, and any other fabrications.
