the biggest irony i can think of right now is the fact that there are people who sided with the owners ‘cause they resent players re: black people getting paid tons of money “to play a game”; these same owners are the ones trying to institute a system in the nba where your ability to run a franchise well (like the Lakers; they make money cause they win, they don’t win cause they have money: they deserve to be where they are as the flagship) is being choked out in favor of heavy-handed, top down enforced “competitive balance” (lol socialism): basically, if you supported rich white people in the nba lockout and you also think #ows is a bunch of lazy assholes, you should probably take a closer look at either issue or yourself. and then go kill yourself.
