Woj stuttered so hard, I wonder if he was trying to hold back “I disagree with the looting”
-
Gotta respect the whites who are out here in this fight with us much respect
-
God bless the NBA Family
-
All the white ones can quit their jobs and give it to a black coach if they feel soooooo strong about making change.
-
The players have more leverage in this moment than they will ever have to demand real action from the league on racial justice. The players have the league and the owners by their bank accounts. I hope they don’t just come back. I think they should go back to the negotiating table and demand significant contributions from owners on racial justice.
-
Maybe more black coaches can get work too
-
Don’t argue w/ folks online who want to make this about protests/riots. This is about unarmed killings of George Floyd/Breonna Taylor. Don’t shift the focus.
-
To be frank those coaches are surrounded amongst educated well raised Afericans Americans. Have them try to live in the streets here Chicago then ask for their opinions
-
The irony of racist Greenberg reporting on this story is surreal.
-
I love Michael Jordan but I also know he is part of the problem. Not his lack of activism but being part of the greedy capitalism problem that we live in. George Lucas, other celebs, they're all part of the commerce and consumption.
-
If racism were the issue we wouldn't see people of all colors and races protesting in the streets
-
Most expensive murder ever. And all Chauvin had to do was use common sense and show even a little compassion. Derek's knee is going to cost America billions of more dollars that's already struggling with COVID-19.
-
Can you believe just 2 weeks ago, we were still talking about The Last Dance? Now we're talking about an event that's worse than the late Rodney King who ignited the 1992 LA Riots?
-
I'm going to read about Kobe, Jackie, George, and Quentin. They all stole. Kobe stole from MJ. Chan stole from Buster Keaton. Lucas stole from Joseph Campbell & Kurosawa. Tarantino stole from so many old movies.
-
I keep telling y'all, the world is going to reset back to the basics. The Houston Rockets won't pay James Harden all that money only for him to go to strip clubs. Overpay these athletes to sin and not care about people.
-
The most important things will be stuff like shelter, food, medicine, clothing. No more iPhone this or that. No more making athletes the most overpaid people on this Earth while people who risk their own life barely make anything.
-
All the YouTubers talking about the next iPhone 12, nobody will care about that anymore. People will just form a mob and just loot stores with iPhones. Paid entertainment called sports and those material things won't matter.
-
The NBA abandoned all of us workers. I was Sanitarian for the Bankers Life Field House/Indiana Pacers/ LEVY RESTAURANTS. And they all dropped us with no words..no the NBA cares? I hope the are treated like they did the NFL…..
-
I can easily go and loot with those people. It's Black Friday but we're ripping things off. But there's karma to that temptation. And those merchandise stolen won't matter. Survival will be the only thing that matters.
-
My stepdad was telling me a huge comet ☄ is going to hit this Earth in 2 years and a lot of us will probably die out like dinosaurs. The world will reset. The Devil has taken over. Material things and status will mean nothing.
-
We need more white people to talk about this and try to change things. We already know what black people are going to say. All people have to say things to help change this or it keeps going on.
-
Uh
-
OMG STOP TALKING ABOUT THIS…. move on already. Stop giving them tv air time. This is not ok, they need to do something productive with themselves. They are pathetic
-
I'm trying to occupy my mind by reading e-books about Kobe, Jackie Chan, George Lucas, and Tarantino. Didn't pay for them thanks to Library Genesis. I'm just as bad as those looters but without the physical destruction.
-
Stephen Jackson is on Undisputed today.
-
Never heard Woj stutter so much
-
The NFL would never and I mean never do this. The nfl players would but not the organization's.
-
Enabling rioters and thugs. Gross.
-
Who looted Woj’s hairline ?
-
Rioting cured Covid19!
-
Now mf all on it but shunned Kap for kneeellinggggg…. bro all this talking is just that …all talk
-
So I guess its only white people who are racist and everyone in black communities are innocent angels who are merely victims………right
-
I would be a hypocrite if I said I'm not a looter. I'm not physically looting but using torrent sites to download movies, music, and books is still considered stealing. We're all practically thieves since the Napster days 20 years ago.
-
Imagine if the cop who knelt down Floyd was Chinese, how would NBA react???
-
Adam Silver is the same spineless dirtbag that stopped NBA players from kneeling after Kaepernick did it. He's just saying whatever is convenient to follow trends.
-
It's funny how people are worrying about looting instead of preventing another murder.
-
I loved when LeBron supported China and it's slavery of Hong Kong crack the whip China.
VICTIMJUSSIESMELLET. -
If every athlete and coach refused to go to work the loss of revenue would force change. I guarantee the owners are friends and donors to the lawmakers. The NCAA has flexed that kind of power before. Imagine if the NBA did it.
-
Yeah I mean you spend most of your time with the very people who are directly affected by this racism it’s only right as a decent human being to stand with them 100% kudos to the NBA
-
Greeny came dressed to the nines
-
As long as it's not against China, the NBA nor the players and coaches will have no trouble speaking up. Keep on being "brave", guys!
-
IN AUSTIN TX IN APRIL MICHAEL RAMOS WAS ALSO WRONGLY KILLED BY APD POLICE OFFICERS. HE WAS UNARMED
WE HAVE TO STOP THESE RACIST POLICE -
Respect to them
-
Props to Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, Udonis Haslem, Tobias Harris, Mark Cuban, and others rallying but doing it peacefully. Public statements don't really change things but at least they want to be part of the solution.
-
Those police officers are getting assaulted for no reason. Police cars getting smashed by baseball bats and lit on fire. They have families. Many aren't racist. They didn't commit the crime.
-
Be bold racism goes both ways in this country. Cop was arrested and still they riot/NOT Protesting.
