    Think it's great to see Michael Jordan speak against violence & donate money. But to characterize this as a stand downgrades actual stands.

        if that's the standard, then no athlete since has ever taken a stand. LeBron included. Right? @EdgeofSports

        No, I think given LeBron's global currency, his wearing a "I Can't Breathe" shirt was major stand.

        yeah I'm not saying it's full on MSNBC....but at the very least there is a liberal lean....it just seems unnecessary
