Hawks posted a photo of shootaround at 11, all imports present. Who knows.

Is it the indigenous thing they posted on their site? That mentions Patty Mills (indigenous but not exactly playing in the game they're advertising...) and Andrew Bogut (NBA relevance I guess).

Must be? Totally misleading then. And Bogut played a preseason game at the WEC. Relax everyone, Hawks aren't getting any better today.

Yep, indigenous culture jersey and "celebration" against the Kings.

Yeah, underwhelming and misleading. But I do support an Indigenous round. I usually don't really care for all the lefty pulls for "inclusion" but I think another jersey variation is always welcome and I like some of the dot painting art. Let's be fair though, mentioning NBA players in an article is as close as Illawarra is going to get to having an NBA affiliation so fans had better soak this up.

I don't care for a major sport specifically celebrating different groups because it seems tacky and it is a cheap ploy. I also didn't overly like it when the NBL decided it was its place to lobby for gay marriage. But I like alternative jerseys and they will probably look good, so I don't overly care.

You don't care for inclusion but you like alternate jerseys and coloured dots appeal to you? I think you might need to re-prioritise a few things in your life.

@Food For Thought does the Breakers jersey with Maori designs on them get up your nose a bit too?

I said I like alternative jerseys and don't overly care. So does that answer your question Curtley or do you need it broken down further for you?

NPC = "non player character". Google it. Basically a term to describe SJWs (social justice warriors)

People on the right don't know how to form an argument? Is what the left is doing at the front of Tucker Carlson's house today "forming an argument" is it?

Ladies, gentlemen,

This is a Basketball forum and the thread is about a club celebrating indigenous culture at a future game, which they are totally allowed to do,

This is not a political forum, lets stick to the topic of the thread

People are allowed to like or dislike clubs doing this without being attacked by others, especially since all forms of logical or intelligent arguments on the topic seem to have ended and turned into petty cheap shots. Especially by people who are Anonymous who are attacking someone who just expressed an opinion.

People got to learn how to play the ball and not the man if they want to claim that they are making logical arguments and discussions.

Once you start attacking the man, it shows you have no logic left and therefore have lost the argument.

Personally, I wish the hawks all the best with this celebration, which they likely also hopes helps increase their profile in their local and the wider community, which whether you agree with the politics or not, is only a good thing for the NBL.

Presumably Tyson Demos.

No, not in my opinion

This is a basketball forum

Im sure there are plenty of political sites people can visit if they wish

Sure discuss whether you like it or not as to how it relates to the NBL, Hawks, etc

Just no need to start bashing people based on non related, more political topics, because they have a different view to you

Great idea. Wildcats would be PERTHWORLD on the front of their jerseys and WAIT AROUND on the back!

LOL, how did I typo the name of my state? I should be banished to the East!
