The NBA and the NBA Players Asssociation agreed to continue playoff this weekend but only if ads during the games promote leftist politics and civic engagement.
So now you can get lectures on Black Lives Matter during breaks in the game.
  
Do any of these players know anything about economics?

    They have to. Misappropriation of contract, and the television money is gone.
Another false news report.

    Play or don’t play. Very few people will notice. At least their weekend games won’t have to worry about trying to compete with Tucker Carlson. Spongebob Square pants could still give them some stiff competition.

    It is amazing to me that these idiots can watch their ratings drop drastically and still believe they are the ones doing the boycotting.

    What if they gave an NBA and nobody came?

    LOL, Sponge Bob reruns could get better ratings than NBA playoff games.

    Im pretty sure the NBA is not who decides the location for polling places.
 
To: SeekAndFind
    Excuse me.
Who in the F even knew there were playoffs, aside from maybe China?
Let them tantrum til the cows come home.
No one will be watching their games or demands or speeches or 90% black TV commercials.
Their only fans are not paying money for shoes, they are looting them.

    NBA player job description.
1. Run up and down the court.
2. Throw ball at metal ring.
3. Lecture everybody about everything because you run up and down a court and throw a ball at a metal ring.

    They might accept this in San Francisco or Portland. But let’s see what the owners in Indiana, Oklahoma, San Antonio, Orlando, Utah and other teams in middle America say in a couple of years when they see a collapse in their revenues.
