Chris Paul: Boycott A Real Possibility

[Isaiah Bradley]

LOL @ you fake millitants having a timetable on THEIR response to THEIR employer. Get the fukk outta here...if they don't play next year the response will still be very loud and the nba will react accordingly.

These descriptions are always geared toward black folks criticizing certain type of behaviors and reactions from members of the community. You would never say this about a white jew or other racial groups' critique of a member of their community. I don't see "fake militant" label for white jews who are calling other white jews as self-hating jews for their critique of israel

You are exhibiting a learned behavior with your calculated and cherry picking labeling of black folks
Some black folks and non-blacks are rightfully complaining about the learned behavior exhibited by the Clippers' team reaction to blatant disrespect. There's nothing wrong in seeing through the BS, self serving, and safe route by Doc and CP3, with their recent actions and opinions. For those two, if it wasn't so disrespectful then, if it wasn't a distraction then, why is it now? Especially when it's all tied up in litigation

FOH with that "their" and "their" chatter because the lack of courage and clarity from "successful" black folks [especially public figures] to properly address disrespect, a clear racist and a proven contributor to institutional racism reinforces complacency, tolerance for disrespect, and cowardliness to address unique issues in black communities, while emboldening other communities. In other words, "the new blacks" phenomenon are socially engineered consciousness and not a result of isolated collection of random consciousness

Who said it wasn't so disrespectful then?

They gave the NBA a chance to act, and the league did act swiftly and decisively. Silver did all that he could do.

Now that things have stalled they're speaking on their frustrations.

Y'all get called fake militants cuz y'all are fake militants. Expecting them to risk millions on a whim while y'all continue to watch and follow the league. It's bullshyt.

All this fake ass outrage is over a tape in which Sterling expressed his his desire to not be ridiculed by people in his circle for who his mistress was hanging out with. It's offensive, but ultimately, who gives a fukk?

Chris Paul is the main person I'm disappointed at. You're the NBA Players President. When the audios dropped, he should have been front and center protesting.

That is the problem with the NBA, they should never have a player be the president for the players. Realistically Chris Paul is a star NBA player who is going to be spending the majority of his time playing basketball and practicing basketball...put him in a room full of lawyers and he is going to get eaten alive...

The players president should be some sort of grimey take no prisoners lawyer type.

The players REALLY missed a golden opportunity to take a ton of control from the owners. If they had boycotted right in the middle of the most exciting playoff games in a LONG time, maybe ever, with all the money the NBA would have lost...the players could have basically written their own CBA.

As it stands now...Sterling will bog the league down in litigation, the players will do nothing, AND Silver is going to rape them in the next CBA (Silver was the primary lawyer who raped them in the current CBA).

This shouldn't be a surprise though. Black athletes often do not see themselves or get treated like regular black people. One of the main reason's why the players didn't boycott is probably because all of their white agents, and accountants, and media relations people were telling them "hey man you are just a basketball player, let the courts and league handle this, don't boycott for "these people"..."these people" wouldn't boycott for you."

Yup.

While I do think the inside out warmup shyt was the corniest shyt I've ever seen, Silver said he would have his decision that Tuesday (3 days later). If he didn't hammer Silver like he did, THEN I think the onus was on the players to act and show how serious they are.

Now, while I wouldn't have told the team to do that wack ass warmup shyt, I would have had everyone leave shootaround and go back to the locker room. And then pop up right before scheduled tip-off or some shyt like that, but I don't believe the onus is on the victim to act when the employer is the one who should. The players I do believe have a responsibility to act if the said employer doesn't do the right thing. The fact that Silver ruled on 3 days later says A LOT. Most would give us the usual "we have to go through our internal investigation and don't know how long it would take, etc. etc." route. If this was the NFL, do you think Goodell would have done the same?

The shyt has gone on long enough though....obviously after looking at this trial with Sterling and his wife, the man aint all there. He needs to sell the team. And if he does still own the team, I think the entire NBA, not just the Clippers need to make a stand and not play. Let all these mufukkaz know that shyt won't ride and put ALL OWNERS ON NOTICE (Word to @NV-ME ) that that kind of shyt won't be tolerated by the players by any owner.

 

[Frump]

Do these idiots know how long it takes for the courts to work? I could see if the league was split on getting sterling out and he wasn't being kicked out but he will get tossed they just have to wait

 

[TGainz]

nikka shouldn't be worried about his money he in all them fukkin State Farm commercials. shyt he even got his son doing them bytches too and we all know the lil nikka can't legally make a check.

Bojanglesp3 ass nikka

I see the clippers ain't get no big name free agents this summer tho

 

[mozichrome]

sterling in court prolonging this shiit, the hell is the nba suppose to do when he keeps throwing out these bullshiit lawsuits.

sterling wants to keep fighting this, this may get settled by owners votes and thats when sterling gonna drop any dirt he got on his fellow owners
folks gotta stop this "we need immediate action" crap they on right now

 

[Supercoolmayo]

I have to duel with some stupid donald sterling poster on another board who said giving millions to basketball players excuses his housing discrimination

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

These nikkas gonna play no matter what. They poppin shyt but they ain't gonna do shyt. Stop all that c00n shyt, early mornin' cartoon shyt CP3.

Exactly...

These the same corny c00ns that thought chucking their sweats in the center of the court was sending a message...They too p*ssy not to play next season...

Exactly.

"We're all going to talk about it," Paul said. "We're all definitely going to talk about it. Doc, Blake [Griffin], DJ [DeAndre Jordan]. It's unacceptable."

Sounds eerily similar to what Paul said prior to the GSW/LAC game, and all they did was flip their warm up jerseys.

Let me guess, they're going to take it one step further and do their game jerseys? Yeah, that'll show em

no, crazy jews are called Zionist...and people call them out on it.

no other racial group calls each other "c00n" because they dont agree w/ something.
Difference between the jews and you fake militants is that when the average jewish person feels a certain way about an issue, at least they back it up w/ their money. All you types do is run to the internet to vent.

 

[GunRanger]

It really is ridiculous majority on here were calling for the Clippers to boycott/make a statement last year during the playoffs..but you ask any of the Coli militants if they were gonna make a statement and not watch them games and they were instantly copping 1001 pleas on why it was okay for them not to stand up for the same principle you expect of Doc or CP3. I mean if you gonna call either of them a c00n I hope yall being consistent and not supporting the NBA in any way shape or form too.

Make a statement? The fukk does not watching the games do? No one here is a Nielsen family so they won't be counted in the ratings anyway. Hell, most here don't buy tickets to even go to games. It's not even close to being the same thing.

 

[RAX 010]

CP3 and Doc might as well head to LWO
