Ice Cube Going At The NBA Over Department Of Justice Investigating Them For Anti-Trust Allegations Targeting The Big 3 League

[AnonymityX1000]

I don’t know what TMZ means when they say an investigation.

It sounds as if Cube and his Maga friends went to the DOJ and nothing else. Ironically all of the sources posted are Maga sources (owned by Murdoch)


From my ears it all makes sense, the nba doesn’t want their employees to work for other people especially not fukking Magas and tinfoil hats

It’s like can I work for JPMorgan and also do some work for Well Fargo

What’s next? Lebron mad that he can’t play for the clippers and the lakers

Didn't know Murdoch owned AfroTech and Yahoo. lol

The NBA let players play in Pro Ams and other off season stuff so yeah they are being inconsistent. And telling networks and companies not to do business with them is a stifling competition move. That's anti-capitalist and monopolistic hence the investigation.

 

[Rekkapryde]

I think some players have their likenesses used in older NBA videos, products etc. that’s if they signed up for it. I may be wrong though.

But that can't be true since you literally have retired cats playing in the Big 3.

NBA needs to come out and say why. If it's the Maga dikkheads and/or they don't want their players, refs playing in the Big 3 for some conflict of interest (dont' see how), then Cube gotta hold that L.

Yeah. They need to come out and say why and stop being sneaky behind the scenes.

Yea I’m not sure how the business side of this works but we might hear why this happening eventually. There are some MAGA folks in the NBA too.

I would bet most or at least half of NBA owners voted Trump.

I look forward to him thanking Joe Biden

Seems kinda split.

The Political Donations of NBA Owners Are Not So Progressive

NBA teams and owners have publicly pledged their solidarity with Black players in the fight against racism and police brutality. But the political donations of many franchise governors have overwhelmingly favored Donald Trump and the GOP. What does it mean for a league to send one message with...

Yeah, just trying to say politics wouldn't be a reason for the NBA not to fukk with the Big 3.

They're all just reposting the same no-sourced article. Dailymail, the post, tmz all murdoch.

As far as Pro-am goes, that's amateur things not a business.

I don't get it, so you think a dude at Microsoft should be able to work at Google and Apple at the same time?
If you wanna join another team, or league, just quit and do that. If somebody stopped you, that would be monopolistic. If somebody stopped you that would be anti-capitalist. Nobody is stopping you. They are free to recruit any players, free to broadcast their shyt, free to do whatever the fukk


I still have no idea if there is any investigation, and law enforcement investigate shyt to see if anything was foul all the time, not cause a crime actually was committed. It's like some shytty regional bank says, X, Y, and Z are oligopolistic and anti-capitalist cause they pay so much, hence they recruit all the best finance professionals

The fact that the NBA even allowed Brown to do that is wild to me.

c00ns really rooting for that fakkit Adam Silver

OK, published article but I'm not sure if it is true or not either. I just hope so since I believe Ice Cube regarding them trying to stop the league's progress behind the scenes.

Why everyone hates the NBA but not the NFL with banning Kaepernick? This shyt never makes sense to me. Ice Cube acting like a Republican who votes for Trump at times. I'm sorry but i ain't watching retired D list players run a 3 on 3's

This here.

Cube is one of my favorite MC's of all-time. But Big 3 is boring as f*ck. Initially, I thought it would be dope. Thinking it would be fast-paced full court sh*t. But the whole three-man format with the washed-retired players is mad depressing to watch. I think it's dope that he put it together, but it's no threat to the show the NBA puts on.

It's not even f*cking with TBT. That's way more exciting and the million dollar pot thing makes the game much better to stay interested in.

I’ve watched The Big 3 a lot of times but I can’t get into it. It’s just a watered down version of the real sport. Back when Mahmoud Rauf was playing and seen Joe Johnson playing as well. I think he might still be playing there but I haven’t kept up with it recently. I’m confused why Cube is so tied up with the NBA. If they do find out they been trying to shut him down then ok but he should be speaking out on what went wrong with the NFL too. Everyone has ignored what happened and went back to watching football again.

Yea they’re all the same with no minority owners, but everyone keeps brushing off what Kaepernick did and stood up for which annoys me. They got smoke for the NBA but come every Sundays and superbowl Sunday everyone is gonna suck off the NFL and ignore what they did and banned him from the game.

I think you're just mad at the fact that the NFL is more popular than the NBA. The Kaep stuff was everywhere and happened 7 years ago.

I’m not, I don’t watch football and don’t care if it’s popular. But you know why it’s considered popular? Cause their fans claim it as the true “American” sport. And you know who those fans are? Mostly Trump supporters who want people to just “shut up”and play ball. That’s why they did what they did with Kap. They tried the same thing with Lebron when Trump was in office too.
