i wonder if the rockets are in the wcf, do we see some biased referring, so that they dont make it to the finals?

- Don't talk shyt about Mexican cartels still in operation if you're anywhere near Mexico.

- Don't antagonize Putin unless you're a powerful cultural figure and untouchable like Kasparov.

- Don't antagonize China unless you can afford to be hacked something serious.

how? the league is protecting morey's bag.

lebron is protecting his own bag.

nobody would have to be doing anything here if morey didn't tweet some shyt just for likes on social media. some shyt that he swiftly deleted so how much did he really stand by it? why is he being treated like some hero?

if he was really bout it then he would have left his tweet up. sounds like he juelzed to me.

Morey is speaking as a representative of a company as well as a free citizen. That is my point. The eggs Morey is cracking isn't helping the people of Hong Kong (he quickly back tracked that shyt anyway) and is hurting people who want nothing to do with this (as is their right) as they probably have no clue about it. It's not just the consequences. A responsible person with a voice has to have viable way to act on his words.

Also, simply put America does not rule the world. There are differing world views. China has good historical reason to reject any political theory coming from a western white government.

In this situation, what's the responsible way for someone who feels the way Morey did to voice his opinion?

India is run by a fascist literally ethnic cleansing his fellow countrymen who just happen to be Muslim and they're yet to become the economic muscle China is.
China just throwing its weight around like it learnt from the master Murica with its love of sanctions and newly minted tariffs.
Freedom of speech and democracy are lovely western concepts but that's all they're. some people may not much care for them and may be in a position to not give a fukk how Murica feels about it.
It's a small yet diverse world my western brother and if it takes LeBron juelzing for people to know this...

Everyone is a hypocrite in this because India not only treats their muslim/sikh community like shyt..they are having their own HK situation in kashmir

Plus India has (literally) the largest population of street shytters in the world.

The NBA ain't abandoning the treasure trove that is China over some tweet.

 

[O.Red]

Time to push the NBA in India, where they just hosted their first game. Silver was there

 

[Dorian Breh]

My favorite argument in here is that Morey didn't do shyt for the people of Hong Kong

When in actuality 90% of posters in this thread clearly weren't tracking the human rights abuses against protestors in HK prior to this.

Now sure, most of these stan wars fakkots are capping and false flagging, but the fact that ESPN has had to report on it is massive exposure for a movement that one of the world's largest economies is doing everything in their power to mute

So China would risk starting a war by killing Morey in America?

and none of your bullet points are true.

The shyt went down literally while the players were on the plane to get there. A lakers player learned he’d lost a million dollar endorsement while in the air.

I never said events were canceled for safety issues.

All games were taken off tv, not just rockets games.

This down not just affect the rockets and their players. That’s some BS you made up.

I just posted a FIRST HAND ACCOUNT of all those points from someone who was actually there.


At this point you are denying reality to

So did Lakers players not loose millions?

Were Lakers games not taken off the air?

Is the entire league not in danger of losing 10-20% of revenue?

Did the players not have a meeting with David stern to address their frustrations?

This is totally not just a Morey/Rockets thing. If it was nobody else would have anything to say.

You’re the one denying reality.

 

[Fade Runner 2049]

I fukks with Morey now. Never gave 2 shyts about him before. All this shyt storm cause of a tweet. He didn’t say shyt crazy

If they fire him he’s going to sue and win a HUGE bag


Got the league scrambling like some hoes.

 

[Remote]

The point is dum dum, that America has always put money and profit over "values."

In this regard, I respect Lebron James for pointing out the hypocrisy of White America.

You are one of those people who has half the facts and says a bunch of stupid shyt.

 

[e001]

The owners will get rid of Adam Silver with the quickness. His job is to make money, the chinese don't even need to address anything to him because he's just a puppet.

Not only can the chinese boycott the NBA, they can boycott all the owners' side businesses in China.
