No more words. No more platitudes. Time for the NBA to move the 2017 NBA All-Star game from Charlotte, North Carolina. Take a stand against discrimination
It's time for the NBA to stop with the platitudes and put your (metaphorical) money where your mouth is and make a stand. The NBA needs to pull the 2017 NBA All-Star Game from the city of Charlotte, North Carolina in response to House Bill 2 essentially making it legal to discriminate against the LGBT Community. This isn't about patting yourself on the back because of all the supposed open-mindedness and inclusion that your league has fostered since Golden State Warriors Executive Rick Welts and former NBA players John Amaechi and Jason Collins came out of the closet.
