I'm late but why does Bron have to where a clear mask instead a all black mask?

I tell you my c00ns and brothers, it's a racial world....My brother Bron trying to show his black power and they shut that down quick. i guess since he don't have a white girl like kobe and mike they threw that out...but represent Bron us real brothers got your back

There is a transparent skin color now? I swear, some people here just love to make everything a racial issue.

the nba ruled the black mask would cause racial uprising in the south as it was seen as an element of black power.

damn that adam silver

harder to see his eyes and thus an advantage is gained

It's bullshyt. It's all bullshyt. They said players cant read his eyes as if he isn't fairly dark skinned anyway. Disn't Kobe wear a black mask without an issue?

I honestly thought it was because they thought certain people might find it intimidating

[USSInsiders]

wonder why he wasn't allowed to wear a black mask

 

[pimpineasy]

Seems rather heavy handed to me.

I assumed it was due to it making him look like Batman and intimidating. Mask was pretty bad ass IMO.
