In this clip, Tim Hardaway & Charles Oakley spoke about the social climate today and players using their platforms to amplify justice-based movements. Tim Hardaway detailed how today is ripe for a social movement like we’re witnessing but said this wouldn’t have worked in the 1980s and 1990s. To that point, Charles Oakley described how LeBron James is “a different animal” from Jordan off the floor as a result of his social advocacy and political engagement. Oakley said LeBron is in league with former athlete-activists like Muhammad Ali, Bill Russell, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
