NBA MAY BOYCOTT THEIR PLAYOFFS?

[3]
Posted: Aug 26, 2020, 1:15 PM

Hmmm! Did i read this correctly? I say to each their own...i do not watch them anymore, but to self destruct before any investigation has been concluded on their issue seems a little rash! I hope all our folks here at Clemson continue to be calm and rational on all issues that come up....and stay a family...
Go Tigers!!

If pigs are so smart, why do 66% of them use weak and inferior materials during construction?

For crying out loud. Does no one realize that sports bring us together?? Sports provide a much needed distraction from life. It fulfills some sort of psychological need that I am not educated enough to explain. Having said that, I don't watch the NBA and don't care if they play. Just concerned about a chain reaction. These players have been blessed to play a game for millions of dollars, during a pandemic. I'm sure some athletes from the big 10 would love the opportunity to play their respective sports. For free nonetheless.

If they would just shut up and play that would be fine. Tired of all their self righteous bs. No one cares if they boycott. I wouldn't even know because I don't pay any attention to that racist league anyway.

I haven’t watched a single NBA game in more than a decade, so I guess I won’t even notice.

The NBA players are about to find out they will not get paid due to no attendance and no television ratings. The gravy train may be just about over.

What exactly are they protesting? The person with a knife who was in the middle of a physical altercation with police.

What if a tree fell in the woods, and there was no one around? Would it make a noise? Perhaps the NBA should move lock, stock and barrel to China ... where civil rights abound! Would anybody care?

Judging by the ratings, the fans are already boycotting it

So sad. Hope they boycott forever. See how long it takes for them to be begging to play when the money dries up. Hope it does and I never have to hear NBA ever again.

I only watch during the playoffs and only a handful of games. Did watch Clippers last night.

Posted: Aug 26, 2020, 3:43 PM

They looked outstanding.

Edit - so now I see the Bucks are going to sit out their game 5 against Orlando. Well, if any team would sit it would be Milwaukee based on the shootingl location AND playing a hapless Orlando team (though they did take game 1).

Everyone fouls NBA players, and they never foul anyone.

If the players follow through with this, I'm not watching a single game until they end the boycott.

certainly wouldnt be able to tell by their ratings.

"I love this place, I've got a spot already picked out where I want 'em to put me when I die - up there on that ole hill near the stadium. I want to be there so I can hear all them people cheering my Tigers on Saturdays; then I won't have to go Heaven; I'll already be there."- Frank Howard

My issue is have these guys actually watched the video. He didn’t follow the police officers orders. What exactly was he going into the vehicle to get? Oh and by the way his 3 children were in the car! What if a police officer in front of the vehicle had fired into the vehicle and shot one of the kids? People aren’t using there brains when interacting with officers and they really should. Just do what you’re told and maybe things would go differently.
