NBA will play the National Anthem before all restart games.

It seems completely unnecessary given the bubble concept, but I think we all know why they are going to.

They need a song playing in the background while the sacrifice a young white male child before every game

They’ve got to give the players an opportunity to make this all about them for their social media following.

So playing the anthem to a virtually empty arena simply to kneel during said anthem.

Correct

Yes. And stand for the Canadian national anthem.

Another chance to alienate any new fans they may have potentially gotten. Look. If they want to destroy themselves, just let them. It's all political theater at this point.

Yep, platform for unamerican behavior. Got to provide that these days.

This is pretty pathetic. Using the national anthem as a prop for their movement.
It just goes to show this isn’t a movement for anything, it is a movement against our traditional way of life. Meant to divide.
If all these guys just take a knee in a moment of silence, doesn’t have the same pop. Got to trigger people to get the message across.

Did the NBA change the rule that players have to stand for the anthem?

They should play the Chinese anthem instead. Bitches would stand for that.

It's one last chance to offend the 4 or 5 grandpas that may have tuned in because they missed sports.

these companies/organizations love to pedal and backpedal for advertising purpose.

I won’t cry if the resumes season gets cancelled.
It may be worth it just to watch LeBron’s tears as his window closes.

They are most likely doing it because players want to kneel.

I would be willing to bet everyone complaining about the NBA playing the National Anthem before games would also complain about it being unAmerican if they decided not to play it
When the Kaep stuff was a big deal in 2016 or whenever it was, I think the general tone of the MSB was to wonder why it's even played at all, and that it would be better to just not play it. Not saying there weren't quite a few who opposed, but I do think that generally speaking that is what the MSB agreed on.

I thought the NBA had a rule against that
