If I were Chris Paul, I'd do this right now.

If I were Chris Paul, I'd do this, in secret :

Get a hold of every player's jersey on the team, and tell them I am going to place a new patch on it, to wear during the next game. Tell the team I will pay any fines the NBA gives us for wearing this patch.

On the top right hand of the jersey, I will place the word "RISE"

And then we play the game like normal.

When asked about it, our team will respond :

"We are here to win a championship, and we won't let any distractions take us away from that goal. But, we still wanted to send a message. We all, Clippers players to everyone watching, must RISE above racism and bigotry. No matter what walk of life you come from, from us Clippers players, to school teachers, to policemen, all of us, we cannot allow hatred to stop us from being positive and living our lives. We will not let hatred bring us down. We will focus on the right things. We will rise."


After the game, if the NBA fines us for wearing unauthorized patches on our jerseys, they will make martyrs out of us. Even better.

There's some leadership for ya.

How can they "rise above it" when they're putting money in his pocket while taking a cut for themselves?

It's about not letting hate affect you and bring you down. We aren't going to be hateful in return, we aren't going to let you change how we act.
