Any truth to the rumor that they’ll play the entire season in the PRC?

No. Wrong move. NBA should double down, and have Lebron write a BLM anthem to be performed before each game. Next, they need to have a person of color go on the PA system, and talk about and tell what every racist white cracker needs to do to be worthy.

Next, have all whites in attendance kneel and kiss the feet of black players as they walk by. The optics of this will be applauded by everyone watching on TV. The entire country will be filled with love for BLM and NBA.

This is the way the NBA can bring us all to heel. This is the way forward for the NBA. Ratings will soar I tell ya.

#27 Re “Get Woke — Go Broke”.

Let’s expand the concept.

“Get woke - NO WORK” and there aren’t many hamburger joints who need additional workers.

Lots of unqualified college graduates in the NBA, NFL, etc. who will have a hard time finding a job since colleges are closing down sports or eliminating them totally. Lots of new unemployed Athletics Dept. employees now out looking for jobs that NBA players will be looking for too.

Once the reds and black extremists from the 1968 Olympics and the Patty Hearst kidnapping/SLA murders incidents got the leftist media’s attention, it was only a matter of time (the reds have lots of time) before sports was severely damaged or destroyed.

Another American cultural icon and favorite family affair brought down by Russell and his partner, Shinnick and his friend (Marxists), Comrade Kaepernick and his dupes, Steve Kerr and Steve Curry, etc.

I have nothing against sports, esp. in clubs/school leagues, etc. I participated on many of them from football and basketball, swimming, softball, and then college fencing. Even got an MVP Trophy from one of the greatest American athletes and gentlemen in our history, Jesse Owen.

They just don’t make athletes like Jesse any more (though a few did serve in the military including Pat Tillman - KIA), esp. during WW2.

Now we have overpaid, racist, Marxist, foolish, and anti-American “athletes” of a second or third level personage status.

I won’t spend any more money on sports related things and am beginning to sell off sports trading cards, etc. Some of the money will go to my grandchildren’s education. They are worth it. Organized sports is not.

Anybody who watches or supports the nba should be considered your enemy, folks. They are addicts of the ‘opioid of the people’ called professional sports and they would no sooner kill you to get their next fix.

They’re assuming there’s going to be a “next year”. Will they survive that long?

The NBA and their thug players can kiss my rear end.
The NBA is simply an escape from reality for fans.
Their is a whole passel of entertainment venues and I refuse to use my time watching an unappreciative bunch of pamppered aholes.

It’s too late. We all know now they are racists & race baiters. They will never recover their fan base. Perhaps now they will be paid according to their worth - as clowns, & not a bit funny.

Partner, I like baseball in September and October always.

I love the baseball playoffs.

The NFL and NBA are history to me now more than ever.

I plan to go to Austin, Texas this next year and go to the U.T. baseball games at the UT Basebass stadium.

I use to play semi pro baseball after H.S. and I just loved it. I never knew why they called it semi pro baseball until I saw my coach hand over a $100 Benjamin Bill to one of our players. Then I really knew why they called it Semi Pro Baseball.

The best baseball is played at this time of the year since all the players timing is so balanced that it is a work of art to say the least.

The BLM, Antifa and other characters do not seem to get it at all with baseball and with the thoughts of true Americans.

I have heard thru the grapevine that Blacks do not like baseball at all since football and basketball are more exciting and glamorous than baseball to young Blacks.

Hank Aaron the Homerun King went into the Atlanta Braves locker room and he remarked that there were very few Blacks playing with the Atlanta Braves nowdays.

I knew then what I saw with the UT baseball team some 15 years ago. There were hardly any blacks on the UT college baseball team.
