Most NBA arenas are a pain in the arse to get to compared to your actual polling place and are currently sitting in zones where absolutely nothing is going on


Meh. The arena is marginally more convenient for me than city hall. I agree it’s not likely a game changer but in some communities where you are seeing huge lines etc... it may help.

I’d also encourage all to volunteer on Election Day if they can but know it’s more fun to sit here complaining that election volunteers are rigging the vote.

But i imagine it will be a huge clusterfrick in managing it. Plus I’m almost sure it would be used for ballot harvesting to the extreme.


The players will be the poll workers. It'll be awesome...LeBron will give you a free autograph for voting how he wants

So make MORE polling places at more convenient locations. See if local businesses in the area will volunteer their place for Election Day. You don’t just make one centralized place for it.

Why is it bad to get people to vote?Oh I know. Shut up and dribble unless it’s Herschel he speaks the truth.
The public turns to things like sports, the movies, etc. to get away from the frustrating, fricked up world around them. They don't want the people (entertainers and athletes) who they pay millions of dollars to allow them to achieve that, bringing their gripes and political opinions to dump on them, too!
That's why we're going to see the masses leaving them in droves. They're literally going to slash their own salaries doing it....and that's probably a good thing.

I thought white folks said voter suppression didn't exist. Have a great day Brian Kemp.

Watching them commit suicide is fun. Nobody will miss their trash product.

I have yet to watch a second of the NBA in their cute little bubble and will probably never watch it again.

I don’t think too many NBA arenas are in poor underprivileged neighborhoods to get the desired effect the players are going for. It would be more difficult for those voters to go to the arena than their current polling location

Are polling places being closed anywhere? No?

It’s been fascinating to watch: a once great sports league being led over a cliff by one manic 6’8” retard.

How do you know I'm white?
Sounds like racial profiling to me.....
Fighting racism with racism is not working.

You still don't get it!
People have a problem with pro athletes bringing their specific political ideology to a place where the public spends its money to get a break from that very thing.
Hell, if we wanna see that, we'll turn on CNN, MSNBC, FOX or the network news!... JUST SHUT UP AND PLAY frickING BASKETBALL!!

In order to get them there they will still have to provide free transportation and throw in a few more incentives. (money, drugs, sex, etc.)

Don’t tell them that. Let them continue virtue signaling. These plans are not thought out and it’s obvious they are being grossly outsmarted

Quit watching the NBA 25 years ago, horrible product.

Problem partial solved, next (axe) your U.S. representative to introduced legislation to remove the anti-trust exemption for sport businesses. And than work on your local government to remove funding and tax incentives.
