Derrick Rose wearing "I Can't Breathe" t-shirt

[Piff Perkins]

The NBA is under a new regime with Adam Silver. He veiws players as partners and not employees.. D. Rose wont get fined for this and the NBA will probably make a statement saying how they are in support the players excising their freedom of speech.

dunno about all that but I definitely believe Silver is more ok with this than David Stern would be.

He should wear another one that says "I can't shoot 3's."

A Knick fan, clownin another NBA Player

You have to respect shyt like this. I know it seems like it would be easy to make an important social stand like this, but you leave yourself open to getting swept up in a "controversy" by old ass out of touch writers and anyone who wants to use you to take the opposite stance. Could potentially even lose sponsorships. I bet he'll get all sorts of racist a$$holes tweeting shyt at him too.


to Rose

He won't lose a sponsorship over this. He'll just get a bunch of white supremacists sending him angry tweets and throwing around the typical code words in the comments section for the articles.

I suggest he rock short-shorts that say #RIPGARDNER on the back. THere's no way in hell anyone would miss a stand like that from Melo.

Melo is a lost cause, breh. We gotta stop pretending like whatever that nikka does matters by this point. Great career. But.......yeah.
