They go on huge PR runs in China. It’s not like they’ve never been there and don’t do business there.

Same for Harden and Westbrook. That’s why they made a statement before China cancelled the games and everyone called them pussies but now Pop, Kerr, Steph, and Bron getting a pass cause y’all like them and not Harden.

Harden the only one that changed course and he said he stands for free speech with the commissioner and that got conveniently glossed over here.
That’s because harden’s dumbass said he loves everything that China is about. He was speaking like he was held captive :dead:

Btw no one getting a pass. They’re all getting shytted on twitter.

I see a lot of non Black men in this thread all on some Uncle Sam is the man shyt. These nikkas need to go back to Higher Learning with their patriotic bullshyt.

To tell you the truth, I got no issues with dudes being patriotic, but they need to fight their own battles and stop trying to drag black men into the mix when it was a white man that caused all this mess. These players are not obligated to speak on something they had nothing to do with in the first place.

Exactly, a lot of Black men lost generational wealth because a cac got twitter fingers. Penny Toler just got fired for calling her team a bunch of BANs. This nikka just cost mad nikkas the bag. Morey will get money from other cacs, no one white is giving these nikkas money to stand for anything. They just want them to shut up and dribble.

I see the truth in the bullshyt. This is bullshyt. No matter how you feel China is wrong or right, this is bullshyt caused by a cac who could care less about Blacks who aren't helping his team.

Also shyt is wild how the bigots on sites like reddit expect black players to jump in and comment.

Like folks in China be risking their careers to discuss black folks being mistreated in America.

Also that just shows how racist jokers are online. So the white dude morey makes a mess and its black players jobs to jump on the grenade and save him.....fukk that shyt.

Harden and Westbrook was just tryna be politically correct and save face. I can tell from how they responded that they don't know what the hell goin on either. Them doing business over there doesn't mean that they have to speak out about that. Especially if they don't know much about the situation. Daryl Morey was the one that tweeted that shyt. He should be the one getting pressed over it. Not the players. And even if those players decided to speak out, it's still not gonna change DM views about it.

Because he was getting held captive, financially, just like these other guys are when they’re normally outspoken and they’re saying nothing.

And I’m talking about Coli specifically cause everywhere else seemed to understand that Harden was trying to hold everything together for the league and shoe companies (his message went for Nike too cause WB was there) but on here everyone had to get their Harden jokes off.

Just like that time @Walt said Harden should be put to death for drawing fouls and racked up 80+ daps even some from supposed woke posters and militants:mjpls:

man if these republicans don't get all the way the fukk outta here with this bullshyt. they should know what hypocrisy is first hand. human beings are hypocrites and humans tend to prioritize things that affect them personally more than they do things that affect others. it's why people like you marco rubio could give 2 shyts about unarmed black people being killed by police because it doesn't affect YOU personally. some sports people care more about domestic issues because this is where they live and if affects them and those they care about. also this is the only place they have the LEGAL right to live and vote.

How ironic that when it's about police brutality, they want black players to STFU (whether NBA or NFL guys)...but now they want to hear from the brehs..

Robert Kraft employed an actual serial killer, and no “””media””” dogged him to comment on that. “Hey man, any misgivings about employing a man facing charges for multiple homicides.”

But let a GM tweet something that messes up these people and their money and it’s bring out the whipping boys to deflect: “steph, Lebron, what are your thoughts on the geopolitical ramifications of a secessionist movement on the other side of the world? We know you vote here in America, so it would be hypocritical of you not to take stand on this.”

I hope you wake up to what people are the common denominator in this shyt before it’s too late.

I don't know much about what's going on, but it's crazy how the media keeps trying to force people like Lebron and Steph to speak up about what's going on in Hong Kong and China. Of course they're going to be more vocal about issues in America. It directly affects them and their race. I hate to sound selfish, but as black men we got our own issues to worry about. :manny:
You have point also it damn near impossible to get mainstream black entertainers and athletes to talk openly about how racism is harming black people in a America so to see posters attack black athletes for not trying get involved with the political firestorm that this hong kong shyt is starting that could possibly start a new war in asia the like of the korean war and vietnam war that is going on with this china and HK conflict is hella :mjpls: it like I been reading the thread that @loyola llothta has in the locker room about this https://www.thecoli.com/threads/us-sponsored-“color-revolution”-struggles-in-hong-kong.717714/
this shyt is not as black and white as the mainstream news media is making it out to be. Now I don't agree with the way china like to censor information and damn near everything else they don't agree with or how they treat their people and how their going about their dispute with the hong kong people who don't want to be fully integrated in to china but if I was a mainstream black athlete I would not touch this china and HK conflict with a hundred feet pole.

They don’t have to say anything for sure. Definitely agree there. And yes they didn’t ignite the situation.

But that is why they are being asked, which was the original question. And it does affect them, because they will have to go back to China, or in Bron’s case he is over there right now.
