I haven't watched the NBA in years..Since Jordan retired the first time?? Tonight there is a 2 part 30 for 30 ESPN show on when the NBA was real. The Lakers and Celtics rivalry.

I lost interest in the NBA years ago. It's probably been over a decade since I've watched it for 5 minutes. It's a shite product compared to the Jordan, Bird, Magic days


Curious how you could come to this conclusion, if you haven't watched it in 10 years.

Me re time to get anther tattoo, and have a child out of wedlock. Read a good book, volunteer someplace, much better than watch these idiots, some will be bankrupt a few years after they play.

Go to the PT Echo chamber with your whiny bitching.

You insult the name Rooster Cogburn.

Imagine if a team of White players refused to visit the White house when Obama was the president.

Holy frick would we be hearing about how racist they are, and ESPN would have the hag and the idiot do a 3 hour SC at 6.

The hypocrisy of Liberals is always fun to watch. Individuals don't want to go, it's one thing, whole team decides not to go is another.

The fact that this came out hours after they won and not weeks or months later when a visit might have been scheduled just shows how it's just a bunch of "look at me" bullshite. There was absolutely no reason for this to have already been addressed by the team.

It's annoying because they should be enjoying their win and not worrying about this bit of course we live in a society now where many try and make self aggrandizing "stances" for attention.

If the market value for a Curry, Durant, James, etc. was $250k, and the rest got $150k, They would still be playing, and loving it.

Making $250k is better than being the tallest employee at your local McDonalds.

Pro basketball sucks so I could care less but it's obvious partisanship if not racism on the part of the players.

I honestly wish we could just go back to a time where athletes were just athletes, actors were just actors, businesses just tried to sale you stuff, etc...instead of every single person/business feeling the need to make political statement on something. That goes for both sides of the political spectrum

If Obama were to publicly insult multiple races of people I'm sure teams would have opt out visiting the WH over the past 8 years.

I'm not sure what you are getting at.

Are you talking about high end guys that don't max out their contracts to help their team with cap space because they are killing it with endorsement money?

If so, that's a personal choice.

Please clarify.
