Official 2019-2020 NBA Thread

Can the NBA players really say they won’t play until laws aren’t changed though? Like aside from the NBA and you just look at the judicial system or politicians

what do they lose if the nba players don’t play

The owners lose and plenty of them donate to governors and presidential candidates. Time for them to use whatever pull they have in unison with the players or be prepared to take the biggest hits. I hope the players stick to their guns and ride this shit out until they get results.

This boycott would have had a bigger effect if they weren't in the bubble. Imagine 3 arenas losing playoff game income in three different states.

....and niggas said Kyrie was trippin.

Tbh. I don't think all the protests are happening at the same level they are without the pandemic. It would have been business as usual.

I can't even argue against this.

He was. This doesn't happen if niggas just stayed home. They would have nothing to leverage.

As much as I wanna see the Lakers try and win a ring this year in the year we lost Kobe and Lebron is getting older.... if the season ends it ends. I can’t be mad at them if they decide to shut it all down.

They are showing they mean business. I respect them for that and like @AZTG stated it makes even more of an impact if the league fines the teams because the players and coaches are showing the world that this is bigger than money and serious to them

Good shit

Since the Brewers are following suit, how does this catch on throughout all leagues?

Milwaukee Brewers join Bucks in protest, sit out game vs. Reds after Jacob Blake shooting

tbh i can imagine players getting tired of the bubble for real, regardless of police killin blk ppl. Bubble prolly was interesting for 2-3 weeks. Now they prolly tired of feeling like lab rats.

Watching espn sage Steele is the worst.
