    If the Clippers brought their whole org even those with recent positive tests, they'd probably be lowering Orlando's positive test population

    https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/29405787/source-nba-union-agree-list-social-messages-put-jerseys

    The National Basketball Players Association and the NBA reached an agreement Friday on social justice messages that can be displayed above the number on the back of jerseys when the league resumes play July 30, a source told ESPN's The Undefeated.

    Via e-mail, players were made aware of a list of social messages -- agreed upon by both the NBPA and the NBA -- that can be displayed in that space on the jersey during the first four days of the restart that does not include their last name, source told The Undefeated.

    Players can have a first and second choice, but they do not have to use the space for a social message if they do not want to, the source said. After the first four nights, a player can still opt to have the message in that space but their last name will be beneath.

    The list of the approved suggested social messages, per the source, for the back of the NBA jerseys:

    Black Lives Matter
    Say Their Names
    Vote
    I Can't Breathe
    Justice
    Peace
    Equality
    Freedom
    Enough
    Power to the People
    Justice Now
    Say Her Name
    Sí Se Puede (Yes We Can)
    Liberation
    See Us
    Hear Us
    Respect Us
    Love Us
    Listen
    Listen to Us
    Stand Up
    Ally
    Anti-Racist
    I Am A Man
    Speak Up
    How Many More
    Group Economics
    Education Reform
    Mentor

    Hmmm.. Don't see MAGA on there. o_O You'd think that'd be on there since Trump was the main one pushing for sports to come back. o_O

    Man reading that bit by JJ Reddick, you gotta feel for these players. I'm really surprised the NBA has not gotten some serious backlash over this high risk plan of theirs, in the middle of a ****ing toxic ass environment.

    And LOL @ that list of words, some are just like really, who suggested that?! And would've funny if it was allowed to say 'Take a Knee' or something along those lines.
