But New Orleans has statues. Has Mr. Silver not seen the giant symbol of hate on Lee circle?

The NBA loves having the All Star weekend in NOLA. This will make 3 ASGs since 2008.

it's stupid when politics and entertainment try to mix

alas... I'm glad my home city and state will reap the benefits if it is moved
