Its more than just money though...Charles and Shaq are saying these players should play for their "teammates" and not the "owner" as if there is really a difference in professional sports..Money over Pride
Once you have a small piece of the pie you forget that you should be fighting for more than just THAT small piece.

Been rich for way too long, lost a sense of race reality.
Plus Chuck is a Republican so I'm not surprised![]()

Ehhh...........while I would not have played and I am bothered by the whole idea of focusing on the game, this isn't the best analogy. There is something of individual and group merit of winning an NBA championship that goes down in history. Fighting to pick cotton to the best of your abilities will just make you the best of a nameless mass of exploited people who will go to unmarked graves and be forgotten or whose legacy will be framed solely by the slaveowners who oppressed you. You can separate the team from an owner or a city. Bill Russel did that, but that separation pales in comparison to what they can stand up for here.Its more than just money though...Charles and Shaq are saying these players should play for their "teammates" and not the "owner" as if there is really a difference in professional sports..
It sounds like someone saying "Don't pick that cotton for massa. Pick it for the brothers standing next to you. Finish what you started, so you can have pride as the best cotton picking plantation in the world"
And listening to some of these players and Doc's comments they are buying into it..
funny how rappers commenting are talking all this garbage about taking a stand etc.
when they threaten each other and want to kidnapp wifey over disrespect. why not get a goon to go at sterling!!?!? why not show up at his house??!? why not steal his basketball hoop outside?!?!?
Imagine months from now, shyt will be forgotten as long as they're still getting their checks
winning a ring is only gonna really matter for a few players historically, and for a few more when it comes to finding the next contract. The historical significance of forcing the league to make action through unprecedented boycotting would be more significant than being the team who won it under such circumstances.
