After all, it is all the fault of the republicans if you listen to Doc Rivers.



What a bunch of coddled idiots.
What a joke. He says what white father has to talk to his son about being careful when getting pulled over by the police?

Ummm every white father?

I remember vividly multiple times in my childhood my father telling me to be respectful to cops, if they ask questions to respond and comply to any and all of there questions/orders. If you get pulled over, make sure to place both hands on the wheels, etc..

I remember when I was 12 my father got me a paintball gun that me and friends would shoot in the back of the neighborhood and he warned me many times that even a paintball gun can be taken for a real weapon and if anyone/especially law enforcement approaches me to set it down so they know I am not a threat.

It is NOT about the color of your skin. It is how you present yourself and respond to/treat others. If you act like a thug you going to get treated like one no matter your skin color. If you don't comply and resist you are going to get treated like someone who is a threat.

It is not rocket science people

So is the game going to be rescheduled? If so, what was the point?
Can you reschedule a forfeited game?

I can't imagine this happening in baseball



I would guess the Magic/ Bucks/ NBA leadership are having the discussion now.

Can't imagine the Magic asking for the win
then cancel the series and send their whiny asses home


Would that help the Bucks, Magic or the NBA?
Jacob Blake of course.

They are making a real sacrifice for him instead of lip service or destruction



Cool, just as long as his kids learn of his past and what he's done. He was just minding his own business when he got shot, right?

Agree. A true peaceful protest that is getting people in Texas who don't even like the NBA to talk about it.

Idk if you've been paying attention, but we've been discussing this shooting pretty heavily

We don't know why the cops shot him. He was reaching in the car. Was there a gun there? Did he have a knife? They just assume the cops were wrong
Have you watched the video? The cops had plenty of time not to shoot him 7 times in the back...
Did you watch the full video? He brawled with the cops, he had a knife and then he ran to his car. If the cops got shot instead this would have been a non-story.

Seriously, tired of these keyboard warriors telling cops how to do their job.

When stopped by cops, LISTEN to instructions.
Co-operate.

It's not that F!@#!@ hard

I "Trumped" their boycott by boycotting the NBA, so I reject their boycott forthwith.

You can't bring logic into this debate, you know that! It's all about feelings and heart.

Ummmmm, she shot him when he lunged for her after going after her for 2 mins. SHE WAS BACKING UP FROM HIM over and over again. That cop showed tremendous restraint. She absolutely did the right thing.

Jacob Blake was shot in the back seven times. Jacob should be in jail, facing trial or a jury. Not get shot 7 times in the back.

Then he should have co-operated with police.
Don't brawl with police. Don't wield a knife against them. And don't go to your car when police instruct you not to.

They can do it and we can laugh at them. Nothing like taking the side of a guy wanted for sexual assault.


Cops on the side of the street don't get to decide who lives and who dies for crimes that aren't punishable by death. Especially when we know there are cops with questionable judgement.
Exactly. Cops aren't supposed to shoot guilty people either. They deserve their day in court
And if the "guilty person" is going into his car to pull out a gun?
They had plenty of time not to shoot him 7 times in the back....
Not worth the risk, as proven by the other shooting.
Not worth the risk? He slowly walked to his car. They had plenty of time to tase him/ tackle him/ baton/ etc before he got to the door!
They tried to tase him already, it failed. They also tried to restrain him before, he fought them.


Now we have a justified shooting and one less Sexual Predator/Domestic Abuser in the world.

Good luck with your facts, amigo.

Cityagboy is on the team that believes "truth" over facts. They've got their narrative, they won't deviate from it.

So I am backing off this unless you clarify

There was an easy way for him to make that happen. Don't carry a knife and brawl with cops when they're arresting you for felony sexual assault. Don't go to your car and reach in for something?? Didn't he also have a DV conviction with strangulation as well. Great guy to represent your cause.

If the guy that was walking after her turned around and went into his vehicle, she would have shot him, too.

I understand you want the cop to wait and see if Blake was going to turn around with a gun while the cop couldn't see what he was grabbing, but that's not how it works.

Blake had a warrant out for his arrest.

Fought the cops after they tried to restrain him and use their tasers.

Goes to his car to get something and is shot.

If you do not obey an officer then I frankly don't care what happens afterwards. Shoot him 100 times. I DO NOT CARE!

And if while backing up she fell and that dude rushes her then what? It worked out well for her but she took on a bunch of risk that she shouldn't be expected to in order to not shoot the guy.

No one just fires once or twice in that type of rapidly escalating life and death moment. That would be stupid.
