Ive been saying this for years, there could be dozens if not hundreds of "black wall streets" all across the country but nikkas rather c00n and buffoon all over the place instead of working together. Tulsa was made by black people that were literal slaved at some point in there life, what excuse does a 2022 multimillionaire have?

He’s 100% right.

The stars could easily start their own NBA if they wanted to.

they would have no problem securing college arenas (star power and ticket sales)

no problem securing TV rights

it’s a shame that they don’t think this way on a huge scale :francis:

Love what he's saying, he just needs to do some research...Europe is know as one of the most popular places for charities to build and flourish....the whole "Eurocentric" angle he keeps repeating is used incorrectly here. Besides that, yes opening up a gym for an athlete getting paid hundreds of millions is chump change (50,000), especially when they're seen with million dollar jewelry and tossing out thousands of dollars at the strip club. The hard pill to swallow, is that a lot of these men, are still kids from the ghetto, who got rich for playing a backyard game. They weren't taught structure, stocks and bonds, etc. They still think "diversify your bonds" is a Chappelle joke and not a very real piece of fiduciary advice.

Breh needs to lay off the drogas.

Always looks high or something.

Dude speaking facts though! I follow a lot of basketball trainers on IG and I always see these guys training at those facilities.. why don't they build their own basketball gyms? A lot of players have it in their homes but honestly a separate facility would be dope.

I remember during quarantine players were looking for places to hoop LOL.

a lot of black pro athletes are snatched away from other black folks early in life. Some HS coach comes snooping around the hood lookin for the next JR Smith, and get that family out the hood and into the suburbs, or they do some "blindside" shyt. All that group economics stuff gets deprogrammed from their mindset. And i don't even blame the black athletes for it, because they come get these kids early.
