After reading what Miles Bridges did to his wife I can't believe the NBA has not stepped in if you want to read what he did here

Miles Bridges made a choice. During an argument, the Hornets forward wrapped his hands around the throat of his ex and strangled her to the point muscles in her neck were torn. Bridges broke her wrist, her nose, fractured her eardrum, and gave her a concussion severe enough that she lost consciousness. This all occurred in front of two young children, scared and confused why daddy was hurting mommy. Kevin Porter was waived Josh Primo was waived Ja Morant was Suspended 25 games but no word from the NBA on this. I will boycott all Charlette Hornets Games until this Monster is waived and no longer an NBA player this type of action can't be condoned violence against women should not be tolerated.

Say Lebron or Kobe were proven domestic abusers how would Nba react ? Oh wait, we did have a little Kobe incident back in the day that was swept under the rug.

They're only woke on other stuff. Beating women is fine.

I agree with you but you saying you are gonna boycott charlotte hornets game as if that is gonna make a difference is laughable.

You think a) Charlotte or the NBA give a fuck about you? And b) like you or anyone not in Charlotte was planning on watching any of their games regardless

I hate to say it because I want the NBA to be a responsible organization when dealing with sexual misconduct and domestic abuse, especially since they also work directly with the WNBA. But I have a feeling what we are seeing lately is like light shown through the cracks. I feel like there are many more cases of this stuff and most of the time it is covered up, swept under the rug. It only makes sense as these players are multimillion dollar draws that the organizations benefiting the most from that money try to hide their indiscretions.

Yeah I really don’t understand why Adam silver didn’t or won’t lay down the hammer on these guys. They’re not even that good or popular. Perfect candidates to make examples out off. This should have been a lay up.

he will only Stop Load Management not players who abuse women

Nobody cares. At the end of the day fans are not going to stop giving the NBA money. And, even if a few of you do, they're not numerous enough to make a dent. When the authorities make a decision, the NBA will make a decision.

Boycott hornets man. The report is disgusting and he should not be playing in the nba. Charles Barkley also took it up with silver who gave some generic non-answer.
