Really surprising. The NBA is far and away the most liberal professional sports league in the US that anyone GAF about (fuck off WNBA). Will be chinteresting to see how the players union responds to this.
this shit is all about money. they see that all this kneeling shit is hurting nfl ratings. only color that matters in this situation is fucking green
NBA players make more money and the league is growing. I doubt it was hard to get the players on board with not doing anything to fuck up the bottom line and future revenues.
I hope some players kneel and get fined. Then their will be an outrage that Silver is a racist who doesn't believe in FREE SPEECH!1! Arguments will happen because the right wing people will say that free speech doesn't mean your employer can't fine/fire you because of it. Then the left will point out that they freaked out when employers fired the alt right protesters when they found out.
This whole fucking thing is a bunch of retarded dogs chasing their tails at this point. It has always been this way to a degree now its just 1000000x worse these days.
Lets just say fuck the national anthem and not sing it before every sporting event, win/win for everyone.
I'd be more worried about players actually playing full-time. The star players taking every 3rd or 4th road game off to rest will do more harm to the product than if they stand for the anthem or not. Shitty teams still sell out home games against teams like the Cavs because people want to see Lebron. However, they won't come to watch Kyle Korver and JR Smith get extended minutes.
This whole thing has jumped the shark. I'm over it. Kaepernick was actually kneeling for something. Unity is a meaningless buzzword.
You are over it, bullshit. Your vagina was leaking as much as Boobs was. Must not have been that important to begin with. The faux outrage was mildly entertaining though.
doogie

Donald Sterling would have never made his players stand. Just sayin'.
