Sat out 2 days to protest. Seems like an empty gesture to me.
Money more important than black lives to them suddenly?

Klc been a dumb FUKK for YEARSComment -
I think the idea was getting verbal assurance from the nba owners that they would use their power to help institute change. We don’t see that because it’s not going to be talked about.
Doesn’t matter for people at SBR anyway it’s clear the entitlement they think they should have over another person to entertain them while they sit on the couchComment -
lol they will never be change until blacks start listening and stop being involved in crime
NEVER EVER WILL ENDComment -
They have a lot of pull because they have money. The elite rich in this world determine basically every policy we have. Who do you think funds lobbyists. Why do you think politicians don’t help anyone other than the people who contribute to their campaigns?
They have a lot of pull. But getting a wealthy person to care about others is tough. Most of the time they get where they are at by steamrolling others. They care about their wealth before anything else so you need that to be affectedComment -
They did nothing. Showmanship.Comment -
They proved just how weak they are, and how desperate they are for money. Typical Black male ego. Meanwhile, idiots like Black Hippy think that blacks do nothing wrong. He is not a pro because no one has given him a pro membership. That is all he is good for. Handouts.Comment -
To an extent maybe. But it’s not about trump it’s what trump and a lot of other politicians represent which is divide. Just look around this site, many don’t think there’s an issue, many think Covid isn’t real, many just want to fight with others and not find a common ground. The problem lies with people being properly educated and understanding what is going on and caring enough about others. We are selfish people which needs to change
We shouldn’t have all these problems last so long here. It’s embarrassing as a “leader of nations”. People should be ashamed but they don’t care. People don’t want to compromise for the overall good. Literally kids are going to horrible school environments because people didn’t want to quarantine properly for a few months. So many don’t care about others and what is happening now will set our society back so many years if it doesn’t change. But people are reactionary, they wait till doom and gloom before they care. Not sure how much more doom and gloom it needs to be though because this apparently isn’t enoughComment -
It’s amazing how guys like LeBron James decry institutional racism and institutional from the top inequality, then they want to tell you to vote for Biden. The classic we need change so let’s vote for someone who would never change.
Shows us that the players are just being used as mouthpieces here.
In fact many don’t just say vote for Biden they say get out and vote it’s the only way there will be change.
Policy wise we know a vote for Trump is a vote for the black man and a boat for Biden is what it’s been for the last three decades. They should be focusing on local elections and local voting for the local laws and policies that are created.
The NBA players feel disingenuous when they say there needs to be changed but want to put the same politicians have been in for ever in again.
They want to turn it political they should spout policy facts their handlers would never allow that truth to come out.
They are trying to turn it political but don’t understand the politics.Comment -
More eyeballs for the RNC. Thanks woketards.Comment -

They’re not cancelling season? Damnit. Was hoping the little babies would make everyone happy and just go home.Comment -
I'm glad that they're playing it out, solely to cash my 1st round futures bets, but I don't think I'll watch and I DEFINITELY won't bet any more games. When you've got players saying straight up they don't want to be there and don't know why they're even playing, I don't want any part of it. It's kind of like a whore, getting paid to fu*k, even though you know she probably doesn't want to be, she's gotta make that $$$.
It already feels like all of the competitiveness has been taken out. Can't watch them just go through the motions.Comment -
They definitely had a chance to do more.Comment -
Men it did nothing
When black behavior changes then maybe cops betterComment
