If you watch an NBA game with 8 random black dudes, its hard to care. <br /><br />This brings up another problem. The college players are going direct to the NBA after 1-2 years in college. So, they get there and who are they? Just some random black dude. <br /><br />Back in the old day, you knew who MJ or Barkley or Magic was before they went to the NBA. You had an emotional investment. rcoceanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17102201338319611538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-86071068757364447722016-10-23T00:24:45.533-04:002016-10-23T00:24:45.533-04:00I was wondering why the NBA players haven't jo...I was wondering why the NBA players haven't joined the kneel during the Anthem nonsense, then I remember that NBA players are a SD above Football players in IQ.<br /><br />Did you realize there's a correlation between height, hand-eye coordination and IQ? Well, there is. So, most NBA players are smart enough to figure out that if you want to support BLM, the smart way is to NOT DISRESPECT the National anthem. <br /><br />Kaepernick is a bit of a dummy. Plus, (like Obama) he was raised by and left-wing oddball white family. No wonder he's an idiot. If the man had been raised by a normal African-American family he'd probably support BLM but otherwise be normal. rcoceanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17102201338319611538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-28749154356103869482016-10-23T00:16:35.348-04:002016-10-23T00:16:35.348-04:00Its easy to ignore the NBA, 82 meaningless games. ...Its easy to ignore the NBA, 82 meaningless games. Then they play for another two months in the playoffs.<br /><br />And while its different in person, on TV it can almost hypnotic - dribble down court, shoot, dribble down court, shoot, dribble down court, shoot. And now the GS warriors have turned it into a 3 point shooting contest. It makes me yearn for the days when the NY Knicks and Detroit Piston would send crybaby Scottie Pippen to floor. <br /><br />And 30 teams all playing the same way, its hard to keep straight who is who.<br /><br />I really stopped caring when MJ, the mailman, Barkley, and all those guy retired.rcoceanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17102201338319611538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-90618128265102975692016-10-22T21:27:11.659-04:002016-10-22T21:27:11.659-04:00The answer is to keep shunning the sport and the p...The answer is to keep shunning the sport and the people who watch it.
