By Perfect Blue Go To PostMaybe they shouldn’t be dealing with China if a tweet can get them disappeared
morey and the nba knew of china's rights abuses before 3 weeks ago. his tweet was the same type of thoughtless 'activism' your aunt posts on facebook. for such a smart guy he should've known better how the people/orgs in china might react and to do so when players and nba peeps were *in* china is extremely irresponsible

By blackace Go To PostOf course it is… he shouldn't had said anything tbh…
He shouldn’t have, this entire thing is a train wreck holy shit.
By diehard Go To Postinteresting to see who calls out Morey for "fake activism" but were all about the Lebron woke traintbf what has Morey done besides a deleted tweet?
I honestly don't know... If you know, let me know.
Literally ask any sponsored star across any sporting league, or ask any large American Corp that does business in China and they’ll all give the same responses. All of them.
By blackace Go To Posttbf what has Morey done besides a deleted tweet?what did Lebron do other than calculated moves to increase his bottom line?

All of them.Nah, smart ones will just avoid the question. Dude could have pulled a Steve Kerr and wouldn't get the hate he is going to from this.
it was "fake activism" tho.
He wanted some brownie points and backpeddled the moment he realized that it was coming in too hot. Not saying the message is wrong but I don't think just tweeting about it really does anything beyond getting you internet good boy points and allow you to go "see I am a good person".
whereas while yeah Bron does a lot of the same but he has also put his money where his mouth is and actually done a lot of shit for the community and backed it up. He should have probably kept his nose out of this one as that statement looks real dumb and can be easily construed as "but mah money doe" (and lets be real...that is a apart of it..because yeah thats a lot of money lost) and ironically is the same shit as what he is callign Morey out about..but still this idea that Morey is really out here fighting for China is way overblown,

By diehard Go To Postwhat did Lebron do other than calculated moves to increase his bottom line?Besides literally open an elementary school that is benefiting the students of his home state (so far) greatly..
If only he would had retweeted a some armchair activist meme.. phew.. Morey raised the bar for everyone
Gotta give respect to the only real one.
Also, watch out for Gordon Hayward strangling Enes Kanter with barbed wire to try to get his shoe deal back.
jk, Hayward will want to do that but Hayward is one of the most cowardly people in the league, lol.
Anta isn't canning current deals. Klay, Rondo, Hayward, Looney and Jacob Evans are fine. Just no new deals.
Based on what I'm reading on Twitter, Gobert isn't trying at all this preseason and our defense is horrific because of it.
But like... it is preseason.
Hopefully he turns it on within the first 15 games or so of the regular season.

will probably be like last season, tons of high scoring games because teams make jumpshots early in the season.
By blackace Go To PostComrade Kerr has a better ring to it.
Kerr is just spineless not a supporter like Comrade LeBron

Comrade Klay?

On board the Chriss hype train
John Oliver was right.
Literally the only person who believed in Chriss because Chriss was the worst player in the league for multiple years.
(I don't think Chriss is going to do anything because he is fucking horrible at basketball but this is a good excuse to post this funny video)
I hope he makes the team. We need more fake tough guys who'll run at the first sign of conflict in the NBA.
By blackace Go To PostOf course it is… he shouldn't had said anything tbh…This but it's also ridiculous how black people ( black Americans especially) are expected to have opinions on or carry water for every other marginalized and maligned group. Sure they 'should' possibly be more aware and empathetic but the "shame shame" coming from people who are basically privileged and comfortable right now is even more "fuck right off" tbh.
Honestly it's easy to take the self-righteous aggrandazing path when you're not in his position. That being said you can be disappointed without being too up your own ass about it.
By linsivvi Go To PostI mean, do you blame him? He's literally being treated like a King over there
any nba player is
Starting to side eye this whole LeBron thing. A lot of people are attacking him but it’s hard to tell who is actually doing it in good faith because they care about Hong Kong. Others seem to be doing it to confirm their already deeply held hatred of him, or because he dares talk about police brutality in the US.

Anyone who supports capitalist enterprise is being a giant hypocrite. If only the value of labor had as much political capital as symbolic support of Hong Kong through losses in profit. Fucking AOC and Ted Cruz locking arms on the issue ... fucking gross.

Not saying anything may not be just as bad, but it's still bad.

He's been that way for anything outside of his own projects.
Dude got an entire script in 2k20 about doing what you believe in lol.
He should've just said no comment indefinitely. It's an option.
