Yeah

The NBA was utilizing government built and run facilities

NBA needs to cut ties with China

I can't respect the organization doing business with such an overtly repressive regime

Neither the league, owners, or the players want to lighten their pockets. We saw this last year...

 

[Codeine Bryant]

Basically everything in China involves abuse

And the rich men who run the world allow it because of the money it brings in

Too much money, that is true for all Americans and their businesses though. They are loud with the denouncing but every business still being run through China.

Apple did move one of their productions to India recently, lets see if that is the new move

 

[Greenhornet]

imagine getting beat, just to not even come close to making the league

The NBA has to look for another market to expand too I get it China got over 4 billion people but fukk that shyt.. better to league up with the euro league and start that Africa League

I think they're going to shift their focus to India now. Already have some presence there and have an Indian owner.

There's no such thing as abuse in china, they call that shyt living

All 1st world countries should cut ties with china but we know this aint gon happen. Many rich people are sellouts, now they have a serious problem with that country. All it took was one tweet about Hong Kong and china put NBA in their place
none of your business nba, hurry up and basketball

Current Indian government is trying to give China a run for its money on human rights abuses, but it had a much later start and not nearly as much control. Things they can control though (like police just straight executing people on the streets) is pretty bad. But the don't got the international rep yet that China does and their relationship with the USA is better right now, so I can easily see a bigger move in India. NBA ain't leaving China.

India's sports culture sucks though. Stuff like coaches abusing kids happens, but far more prevalent is coaches getting bribed to let kids on the team, only the rich kids playing, etc. They don't really take sports seriously outside of cricket and cricket is rife with nepotism and politics. And parents don't want their kids playing sports because they don't believe it contributes to their future. It's all pretty rough for the kids who just wanna play and be part of a team.

Yall remember the Olympic special were they were abusing kids under 3

Yanking their muscles to make them gymnasts and beating them when they cry from the pain


shyt haunts me to this day
