Adam Silver: Chinese Gov't Demanded That Morey Be Fired; Morey Now Under Constant Security Detail

[tremonthustler1]

The players felt in danger. There was protests, canceled events, they were taken off tv. It was a hostile environment. There was no red carpet this time.

Then Silver woulda flown em out. They’ve sat out bigger games for less.

GM not owner, just to be a detail stickler.





Because those players didn't say anything but Morey did.

Does it not make sense to you that the person who actually said the thing is the one at the greater risk?

Maybe you don't have the capacity for this nuance but China does, it is why they are demanded that Morey be fired and not demanding that LeBron be fired.

Morey is a high level exec. His words are taken to represent the league as a whole.

The Chinese people and Government were/are upset at the NBA as a whole not just Morey.

and lol at you talking about nuance while having a clearly simple view of the ramifications of what Morey did.

That's just for these Bron stans...it's all in good fun and I been said ignore the right wing CAC-tards who would'nt otherwise give a fukk about human rights abuses in China.

Their voices don't have a say in this convo

Can’t just “fly outa” China if they don’t want you to.

We been China' bytch way before this. It only peaked a lot of your interests because of Lebron's comments on Morey. If it LeBron's comments on Morey to let you know how pull and influence China has on the US then you have been asleep behind the wheel

I've never seen LeBron as some revolutionary

Breh ya'll really need to stop this

Just because the average Coli poster only cares about p*ssy, sports, and the latest album don't mean the rest of us don't keep abreast of world issues and have positions on them

I legit think the reason for this is because most of these posters don't come near HL because when they spew their uninformed tripe, they get shot down with facts and logic, get in their feelings, and run to TLR or some other smart dumb nikka corner of the forum where dumb shyt can be said freely without fear of disagreement

Based on the responses in these threads alone it seems that most of The Coliseum don't know shyt about the world outside their town, not me

You really think they were gonna hold two NBA teams hostage until someone lost their job? Really? Consider the scenario you just posted.

WWIII wasn’t about to start over a Morey tweet. The sequel to the Iran hostage crisis wasn’t gonna start over a Morey tweet. LeBron was in danger of having thousands of kids mob him for his autograph, not his head on a platter.

fukk the NBA and fukk Adam Silver. Hope the Chinese hurt their pockets.

Racist, white supremacist professional sports league vs oppressive China. I'm siding with China on this one.

 

[Black White Sox Hat]

lol this some movie shyt

 

[Yungin]

I’m alleging he didn’t realize or consider how much danger he was putting them in with the tweet.

And now people coming at Bron for his comments are not making that connection either.

Morey is a team executive not a league executive.

None of China’s actions agree with what you are saying.

When where they near Hong Kong? What protests around them are you talking about? You really digging your heels into them catching a bullet because LeBron wants to Morey to catch hell.

How many of the Coli regs will dap this?

This is how ya'll feel...dap it...give him rep...just be honest with yourselves

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

The Chinese government trying to dictate free speech on American soil.

This is their endgame and Morey exposed it.

Morey can say fukk China all day... that’s free speech... Now, if the private company you work for does 9 figures of revenue with China... being an employee and saying fukk China on social media may fracture that business relationship...
