only thing they can do is have owners start a PAC to fund police reform. it's not a bad idea tbh and owners should do it
What’s stopping the millionaire players from doing that themselves?

would Dame playing in Game 5 and leading a 3-1 comeback be the most hilariously ironic thing that has ever happened to Lebron James or anyone
Isn’t Dame leaving the bubble though because of the knee?

That would involve more funding for better training and honestly larger salaries to attract a better pool of candidates for the job. The problem is the movement calls for less funding and fewer officers.
agree 100 dude
that's the rub here. police need more funding not less lol

Black homeownership for college graduates recently has been at a lower rate than white high school dropouts.

What a brave sacrifice made by the players... What a joke

Ah, didn't realize that but it makes sense

That probably has more to do with the crippling debt college incurs these days.

what's funny about that dude? not even capping. I feel for police because they are not prepared for everything they have to deal with
You think the players would support anything involving more funding for police?
I agree with your stance. Our shared stance is in direct opposition to what they support and want

Of course they did, LeBron couldn't strong arm the other players into having the courage of his convictions.

The players’ greatest influence is through labor, I would assume. Owners are much, much more connected and influential in political circles than most or all of players.

yes dude. they want police reform. I just don't think they understand what that really means yet
Posted on 8/27/20 at 11:26 am to Mr Perfect
Just get police out of black communities and we won’t have this problem anymore
Posted on 8/27/20 at 11:27 am to lsufball19
The players executed their plan........they had no plan. I sure hope Kenny Smith resumes also.

Is it because they realized they can’t realistically back this shithead’s death anymore and look like compete fricking morons for doing it in the first place?

There is a meeting of NBA owners and players set for later today, sources tell @MarcJSpears and me. The discussion is expected to include plans of action moving forward on social justice issues.

think LeBron just wanted his Malcolm X moment
First, Lebron is Shaun king Jr
Second, he’d have a Malcolm X moment if he called out White Liberal Democrats...not sure of Lebron read that on the first page of Malcolms biography

Sure we will. Those black communities will just turn into Somalia without police there and then they'll cry that no one cares about them enough to protect them
