The NBA players are effectively locking themselves out of their own jobs while demanding an action that their business has no control over. I don’t see how this boycott/strike/lockout ends. The NBA can’t address any demands with the players or institute any additional changes.
I suppose if charges are brought in Kenosha the NBA players could declare victory and return to games, but they have no control over whether charges are brought. And they don’t even know all the facts in that case. None of us do.
I suspect LeBron — and some other older players — will want to finish the season. But the interesting angle here is the woke NBA LeBron created has now passed him by. I’m not sure how much the younger players will listen to him. He might be outwoked by them.
Which would mean LeBron’s last, best chance to win a title could go up in smoke over players refusing to play.
