Not at all. Cancel the games. If it’s authentic, they have the financial means and power to go beyond the symbolic gesture. Not everyone does, but they do, so use the power for something.
But cancelling a few games and then going back to business as usual without doing anything else (which is too often the case)? Yeah, you might as well have done nothing.
I get that slacktivism feels good, but that’s about it.
EDIT: Saw your edit to the post. I will say - if they cancel the rest of the playoffs, that’s a much bigger statement than just cancelling a day’s worth of games and continuing on.
