2019-20 NBA Thread: new forum, same great taste (6 Viewers)

Hell, we ALL should support Hong Kong's fight for democracy against communism. F China and their totalitarian control. An NBA franchise doesn't need to bow down to tyranny for money.

Nice little quote from the Nets co-owner (co-founder of Chinese e-tailer Alibaba):

 "By now I hope you can begin to understand why the Daryl Morey tweet is so damaging to the relationship with our fans in China,'' Tsai wrote. "I don't know Daryl personally. I am sure he's a fine NBA general manager, and I will take at face value his subsequent apology that he was not as well informed as he should have been. But the hurt that this incident has caused will take a long time to repair.''

The only thing he may not have been informed about enough is how corrupt the NBA is an how much they’d sacrifice to appease China. Or maybe he just underestimated just how evil China is.

 
How is the media handling this? Are they (ESPN in particular) ignoring the story to avoid biting the hand that feeds it?

It seems like they're reporting the actions of the various parties, but staying objective and treating it like news. Dunno if Le Batard or any other subjective/editorial guys have touched it.

 
Can we get @SWC to release a statement on our behalf?

Took me far too long into this statement to know who Bill Wallace was. I was assuming some guy on Dateline.

You're going to get us all killed.

The NBA apparently is all for promoting activism and civil rights as long as it doesn’t get in the way of big $. Absolutely shameful. Whatever legacy Silver thought he was building himself is now destroyed IMO.
yeah, i mean what a surprise that Silver bowed down to some myopic, ham-fisted, short-sighted prisoners of the moment when a bit of controversy arose.
