Maybe that’s why most of them can’t hustle down the court and keep up with their opponents.

I’m not that interested in watching Gangstas shooting hoops.

you couldn't pay me to go to an NBA game

I'm wondering if at some point the billionaires who fund these teams will say "enough" and move on to other less controversial toys to keep them entertained.

I can't think of any other time when professional athletes were allowed to display political statements while on the job. This pandering to the spoiled black NBA elite has brought the league to the point of no return. JMHO

Grew up playing basketball. Never even watched an NBA game.

Why would anyone waste their time watching NBA’s lax rules enabling primate mimicry by gang member wannbes who are clearly hostile toward a large percentage of their fans, is beyond me.

I can’t stand the NBA. I haven’t watched since the days of Dominic, Byrd and Johnson.

Those 55,000,000 defenseless precious babies couldn’t breathe either.

Earl “The Pearl” Monroe ruined the game for me. When the refs ignored him palming the ball, ‘walking’, etc. I figured it had sunk to the level of ‘professional’ wrestling and never turned it on again. The last professional game I attended was the ABA Virginia Squires featuring “Dr. J.”

This will drive away some white fans from this nearly all black sport and they won’t come back..... DUMB IDEA!

“ESPN is a contributing factor in the dumbing down of America.”

Its the guys/jock sniffers soap opera channel where the off field gossip is covered as much as the games
