The players have a union. The league should tell them to play or go on strike. Then, if they strike, fire them.

Ding! Target hit!

Nobody is watching their crappy BLM hootchy-kootchy dance, so the black millionaires are looking for an excuse to bail out and avoid looking like a national embarassment.

Imagine if a black astronaut on a Mars mission decides to go on strike because of a “racist incident” back on Earth....

These NBA players do not understand the consequences of what they are doing....

When President Reagan was shot the NCAA still went ahead and played March Madness championship game before anyone knew if he’d survive the surgery.
