Look, I can't fault anyone for not wanting to give up MILLIONS, and I'm sure some of these guys didn't want to stop playing to begin with.
Threw a tantrum and that was that
Laura ingram was right after all
But all these guys yesterday who were literally saying "I DON'T WANT TO BE HERE", or "What are we really willing to give up" - where are they? So much for that.Money for mansions, cars, and rare Jordans are much more important.
Again, can't fault someone for voting one way or the other.
But, on the surface, the playoff boycot looks toothless and the optics of carrying more about their huge checks rather than equality and social justice is going to be a factor moving forward.
Taking the night off was good enough. That actually displays a tremendous amount of power for the players. The push to end the season was just unrealistic.
Good enough for what?
I gotta' side with hater here. The optics don't look good and the option of boycotting in the future seems toothless.
With that said, maybe the players and the owners came to an agreement to do more and it's not just about the paychecks.
To grab the headlines and give further attention to the Kenosha situation.
You looked.
It worked.
Talking about ending the season took it too far.
They were able to get white athletes to boycott with them
America truly deserves better than these two self defeating demographics leading the way
You're in Poland.They were able to get white athletes to boycott with them

Kenosha was already in the headlines.
Ending the season accomplishes nothing, the story is gone in less than a week and their voice is lost, shut up and dribble, blah blah blah. The statement made last night is historic in its own right
It'd be like if John Carlos and Tommie Smith boycotted the Olympics, nobody would know who the they are
Yeah every one will remember the night NBAers took the day off and Kenny Smith threw a tantrum
Historic moment right there. Rights along the battle of Gettysburg or trip to the Moon
I said further attention.
I know you voting for Trump this week but don't get all disingenuous.
I'd argue the worst part is all the ammo that will now be used against the NBA players and their movement. Even less people may take them seriously now. It's unfortunate.
Again, hopefully more comes out like the owners agreeing they should do more themselves.
further attention was needed? why? what did that accomplish?
When was the last time a major American sport experienced a political strike by its players?Yeah every one will remember the night NBAers took the day off and Kenny Smith threw a tantrum
Historic moment right there. Rights along the battle of Gettysburg or trip to the Moon
It's what the players thought.
You're sure as talking about it.what did that accomplish?
Mission accomplished.
when was the last time anybody gave a a major sport players took the night off?
sure this is an nba forum.
99% of americans don't give a . nothing was accomplished
