    I feel like if you have to play to feed your family because you're a depth player, a young player, or you live paycheck to paycheck, that's one thing.

    But if you're in a good financial position and you can afford to protest you should absolutely do it, especially if you're one of the prominent faces/voices in the league

    His main point with regards to race in sports is protecting the athletes pockets. He doesn't want them to do anything that would cause them to lose money, which is why I feel his message is often misconstrued as being anti-black

    See I hear that standpoint too, I understand that. But to me it makes it even worse because like my guy why you pocket watching? I'm sure their money is straight. Even then when it's over something that can happen to any/every black person, you start looking it like "You know...maybe the money isn't that important, taking a stand for what's right so we won't have to keep on dealing with all this in the future is bigger than the money."

    It's the reason why I still look at MJ as sort of a cornball for never speaking up for what's right and focusing mainly on keeping/maintaining his money. Lives are worth more than money you feel me?
