Lebron says Morey's China tweet was dangerous and misinformed.

[goatmane]

This is who they want black athletes speaking up for.

Whether you agree with Lebron or not...just remember what these people think about us and our race.

A official announcer for Tencent (the company endorsed by the govt to air NBA games in China) called Lebron an ape on air. No apology or nothing... Bron still caping for them

A lot of people in this thread are reaching on some “why does LeBron have to fight for Asians?!!”

It doesn’t have to be one extreme or the other. I think most people with common sense just want consistency from LeBron.

LeBron didn’t have to do shyt for the Hong Kong people, but what he should NOT have done was shyt on Daryl Morey for having a phuking opinion. He basically told him “shut up and GM” - as if LeBron is the only person in the NBA that’s allowed to have an opinion.

The Hong Kong people are fighting against oppression, and LeBron doesn’t have to join that fight but he shouldn’t detract from those who do. What’s the worse that would happen to LeBron? He’d be worth 1.2 Billion instead of 2 Billion? Space Jam won’t play in China, so LeBron will be slightly less rich? FOH lol


LeBron NEVER jumped out the window on an issue, and calling Trump a bum wasn’t a risky move in the Liberal circles LeBron travels.

Bron said, "Speak on what youre passionate about. Except for you, daryl morey. Youre uneducated."

At this very moment, Nick Wright is up preparing to carry the biggest bucket of water for Lebron James that he has ever carried on tomorrow’s show

we’re going to hear it all from

“h-h-he built a school!”

“W-w-what about the I Can’t Breath T-shirts and the Trayvon hoodie?”

“Lebron is a family man. He made being a father acceptable in the NBA community.”

“Lebron is fighting on behalf of the players. He’s taking all of the backlash by himself”

“He has a black wife got dammit! “

Are Black Americans supposed to prioritize Hong Kong or something because you acting as if those things you listed are not supposed to be important to us?

 

[KingofthePenguins]

What?

That is a perfectly intelligible question, so you can just not reply if you are wanting to equivocate.

It’s not about Hong Kong. It’s about how Lebron feels everyone else has to shut up about things theyre passionate about if it has the potential to affect his own pockets.

More than an athlete, less than an activist

Alright, but you are bring up things such as his having a Black wife and the Trayvon Martin protests as if that means that Black Americans are not supposed to care about that because of some people in...Hong Kong.

 

[Dwight Howard]

Black Americans have to speak about nations of which they are not even citizens, or they do not have real passion for Black Americans? How does a Black American pander about Black Americans? You clowns really need to do something with yourselves. You run your silly ass up to China and protest or whatever.

Bron doesnt have to speak on any issue at all. However, it becomes problematic when he criticizes a GM for expressing his opinion. It's hypocritical.

Your question makes zero sense and comes off as if English is your second language.

 

[Thegospel]

So, you are mad why because neither have anything do with you then?

Assume I’m mad because I shyt on your flawed viewpoint brehs.

You do not have to highlight Lebron James if hypocrisy is why you are really so pissed, though, so that is really not why.

No, that’s not the point at all. I bring those up because he himself used those some of those examples earlier in his own defense, when it has zero to do with the discussion at hand.

Again, Hong Kong is not the issue.

No doubt. But don't be phony about shyt either Bron. If Bron came out and said he protecting his Nike funded pockets just like every corporation doing business with China is then what they gonna say.

shyt if I'm China, I'd call out the American government's treatment of Black and Brown and indigenous people. Can't be in a glass house throwing stones.

What is flawed about that? The ones who are screaming about Colin Kaepernick are the ones who want Lebron James to be the leader of the people of Hong Kong. You are screaming about Lebron James supporting Colin Kaepernick but not Hong Kong because the ones who "support" Hong Kong are not supporters of democracy with Kaepernick. You are outraged at outrage against outrage?

Lebron James brought up having a Black wife, his school and Trayvon Martin when asked about Hong Kong? And why not just bring up the ones that he brought up since you even state that he only brought up some if undermining him or Black Americans is not you objective?
