LeBron James did not have a lot to say about Donald Trump's lack of viewership of NBA games, but [...]
LeBron James on Donald Trump saying he won’t watch any more NBA games because people have kneeled to protest systemic racism during the national anthem: “I really don’t think the basketball community are sad about losing his viewership.” pic.twitter.com/l9sP7LiFsi

Apparently Bron doesn't care about our country irrespective of Trumps comments. BLM is a marxist movement-prove me wrong

prevnextHe should care somewhat as viewing is down significantly since the players started using the league as a platform for their politics. As per ratings, it’s obvious a large portion of viewership doesn’t support their actions. I for one won’t be watching games anytime soon.

Their games will be on without most of the country’s eyes watching

Just like lots of former @NBA and former LeBron fans like myself could care less about you and your "wokeness" now. Keep playing in the league that is kissing Chinas ass, and dont saying anything about the real people being enslaved there. Just cash those checks LeBum @KingJames

I think LBJ meant could NOT care less.

prevnextDonald Trump should concentrate on real problems like unemployment and COVID and our country nose diving into the ground.
Mr Draft Dodger cares so much for the flag now he wouldn't even fight for it in the past.

James’ reply actually made me laugh out loud, because I know it’s so true. Not one of those players cares what that thug in the WH thinks.

A lot of HYPE is being made for the @Lakers and @KingJames to win the championship this year. Can’t do it playing like this 🤷♂️ pic.twitter.com/BoVJjRCsy8

He makes more money not playing basketball than he does actually playing. But go on with your bad self.

Haven't watched an NBA or MLB game this short season and probably... Naw, definitely will not watching a game. But the NHL games for the Stanley Cup have been awesome!

You’ll still play and have incredibly low ratings.
I, personally, don’t turn the game on until I know I don’t have to see them kneeling during the anthem.

prevIn the NFL’s case, it’s marketing. direct partnership with the US military. Large groups of troops holding flags, flyovers, etc. Recruitment, propaganda, whatever you wanna call it. As for the NBA? I dunno.
