NBA announcer Ernie Johnson might have given the most thoughtful take on Thursday's episode of Inside the NBA on TNT.
"But here's the deal, I just hope that he's all in, in fixing the wounds in this country and the divides that separate this country," Johnson said. "And I want to be part of that too. And for me to part of it, I have to look in the mirror and say, 'How am I going to be a better man? How am I going to be a better neighbor? How am I going to be a better citizen?
