In a game scheduled with Miami, the Milwaukee Bucks walked off the floor refusing to play. Now, all of the NBA and WNBA are boycotting and refusing to play.

Can these players still be compensated whether they play or not? Or, is their union so strong, they get paid regardless?

It's time the owners of these teams get together and shut things down. Let these millionaire players file for unemployment. Players shouldn't be dictating the terms.

At the very least they are causing financial loss for the owners. Not much different than the beer truck driver unloading the truck off a bridge.

It's true. The owners are suffering financial loss. They should ban together and hit back. Shut the season down and let the millionaire players get hit in the pocketbook. Do the same with the NFL.

Who cares really? I can't remember the last professional sport game I watched for NFL, NBA, MLB, PGA, etc. None of it impacts my life and I can't for the life of me understand why it's so important to others?

Its a move to get Whitey right out of basketball.
White owners will fold,Blacks will step in and take over from the top,and stupid whitey will support it just the same with all blacks running the show and reaping the real rewards to be funnelled to the race war.
It is happening in all sectors,politics local and up,policing,economic,and now big sports.
They are following the Published mantra-"tear this ---- down",so they can replace everything from the top down.

A friend of mine is having a bonfire party to burn all professional sports memorabilia. He was a huge NBA, MLB and NFL fan and has a lot of autographed stuff.

It will all be going up in flames this Saturday. Video will be sent to teams and news organizations.

I'm with you guys on that. I haven't watched any of those anymore either. It just bugs me that the owners have no kahoonies about any of this and the players keep getting rich. It's probably a matter of greed on both sides.

I grew up watching baseball with the likes of Dizzy Dean, Ted Williams, Mickey Mantle, Duke Snider, Jackie Robinson, Brooklyn Dodgers, etc. It's sad to see how low professional sports have sunk. It's no longer for love of the game. It's for the money.

Tell him to make sure to send a copy to Goodell.

Same with the NFL and MLB. Good reason for us to boycott them all.

lots of business are lining up with the liberal agenda, makes me wonder if they know something that we do not know like 'the fix is in'?

They are totally disregarding conservative America and really giving us the middle finger, yet some right here continue to support these people.

The Chinese have people in concentration camps based on religion, they are harvest organs from unwilling donors, they are beating people in the streets of Hong Kong and ending that democracy, you will not hear anything about this from NBA players because the Chinese watch the NBA and provide the sweatshop labor to make their sneakers.
