The NBA and the players union agreed to resume playoff games Saturday after the two sides came to an agreement to enact commitments in the name of social justice and voting awareness.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver and NBPA Executive Director Michele Roberts released a joint statement on the issue, along with the list of the agreed-upon steps to support social justice issues.
“The NBA and its players have agreed to immediately establish a social justice coalition, with representatives from players, coaches and governors, that will be focused on a broad range of issues, including increasing access to voting, promoting civic engagement, and advocating for meaningful police and criminal justice reform,” the statement read.

So they are now a lobbying group. FEC, make sure they follow the rules to the letter.
Only in America can someone as stupid as Lebron James become a multi-Milionaire. Try that skill set in Botswana. They’d have him killing small animals for dinner.
The result of having China on speed-dial.
Ha, ha, at least he would have a chance at beaning them with rocks.
Number 1 condition is that their pay is not cut.
Please don't bother, we are no longer watching anyways!
Worth saying again.
It would just be easier to call it a "Soviet".
The NBA is nothing more than a lobbying group for China, and the Democrat Party..wanna bet massive voter fraud happens at those voting booths..so I guess now its safe to vote in person again, no need for mail in voting
LeBron James is a bigot!
Can’t wait to see you social justice your asses right out of a job and the pics of you on the curb when the bank repos your mansion. Bet you take a big loss on the Lambo and the Bentley.
Anyone who watches any of these games is as big a traitor as Lebron.
They claim to want social justice?
That’s a lie-
what they want is for black people to be allowed to do whatever they want, and face no consequences at all- Which is why they support the CRIMINALS that were shot justifiably by police for resisting arrest, and threatening kill the police- and why they support the criminal activities of BLM-
They don’t respect this country, nor do they respect anyone who isn’t black or a self loathing white who sympathies with blm terrorism
What they are doing and supporting right now proves that they think ONLY black lives matter-
They don’t want equal justice- they want black folks to be above the law- to never have to face the possibility of being shot when a black perp threatens the life of a police officer or anyone else for that matter—
They don’t want equal justice, they want to dominate-
They live in the most privileged country in the world practically, and this is how they act?
Yes black folks get shot- WHEN they attack police and ignore orders- That’s what gets buried in all this crap-
Only 2 unarmed black people were shot and killed ALL of last year- out of many many 1000’s of police encounters, ONLY TWO unarmed black people were shot and killed unjustifiably-
That is incredibly NON Racist! Oh, and the two officers involved i n those unjustified shootings? Yep- convicted- proving again how NON racist the police force is-
Don’t play! Who cares?
I don’t now how good he’d be with a bow and arrow though.
And his mouth is a spigot.
Yes black folks get shot- WHEN they attack police and ignore orders- That’s what gets buried in all this crap-
It seems that all their poster boys for unjustified shootings had done things to bring problems upon themselves. I wish we would discuss each case in detail.
Start with Trayvon Martin, which technically wasn’t a law enforcement matter, but let’s start with him and move on to Michael Brown and all the rest.
If there are cases which were completely unjustified in any way, let’s discuss those.
We’re still waiting for ALL details to come out about this Kenosha shooting. But apparently the guy had warrants for his arrest, and was behaving in a threatening manner and resisting arrest at the time.
We are at a point where liberals don’t even want to wait for any investigations into incident. Instead they release the blurred video and say, that’s it, cop is a racist, etc. etc.
Sadly lives are in danger with this liberal attitude. But that’s where we seem to be.
“Try that skill set in Botswana.”
Ha, ha, he wouldn’t have the expensive tennis shoes, either.
