Raptors considering boycotting game against Celtics

I see it both ways. Boycotting the game would send a strong message and reinforce the importance of the situation. On the other hand, boycotting the game isnt going to make cops act appropriately or make Trump do something. If the players think its the right thing to do and that their hearts wouldnt otherwise be in it then they should boycott...but then comes the question of when would they play again? should every team boycott every game until there is some reform? i dont know but ill respect whatever they decide to do

Are they gonna run it by Adam Silver first?

Bro I opened this thread and hit CTRL+F and typed "reb". This was an alley oop if any to talk about how NBA players pump fake on the social justice tip.

The responses in this thread are identical to white supremacists commenting on any player commenting on social justice comments made on Instagram or Twitter.

Just waiting for someone to say that if Jacob Blake followed the rules he wouldn't have been shot. Or mention a recent shooting in Chicago.


Good job Coli, you pieces of shyt. Here I thought we were on the same page and side of these athletes making these statements. Forgive my ignorance.

I have no idea how you got that impression from the replies in this thread. At least quote the people next time instead of making a blanket statement.

This makes more sense than boycotting a game to me.

Going home would be a major statement

 

[MikelArteta]

Agreed.

Cacs care way more about the NFL than NBA

But like yall said Breyonna Taylor's killers still on the force and not arrested. These cracka cops and the people in charge simply don't a fukk....and never will because it doesn't affect them like it does us

we need to get over breyonna taylor's killer nothig is going to change.
And do what the jews do, handle it ourselves

Forfeit the playoffs or else this makes 0 sense

I'm tired of "statements" and I'm especially tired of black people with zero systemic power feeling like they have to make them. I get the frustration and helplessness, but this is on white people to fix. They need to step the fukk up. Imagine if every white media person in the bubble left and went to Kenosha to investigate/report. I'd much rather see that than see Jaylen or Vanfleet put their careers and lives on the line to help fix a country that hates them.

how does forfeiting makes since?

It’s not like they are taking a stand against the NBA... these gestures, including the names on backs of jerseys are useless

Honestly...this would be a huge thing if it was the NFL. Folk would literally kill themselves if this shyt happened in the NFL.
