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

[Guile]

I’ll take their opinion over Coli posters

Morey is currently in hiding he was definitely uninformed about what his statement could do.

 

[DonRe]

See i can respect this perspective for safety reasons.

Yet he still put his foot in his mouth on speaking on moreys initial take of not knowing the facts.

 

[Torrential]

Whats the Injustice

1 million Uyghur, an ethnic minority group in China are in concentration camps. Women
getting beaten and raped . People getting executed.

 

[duncanthetall]

Damn. This nikka’s coming for the Chinese throne. fukking shameless. I get not saying anything and not fukking up the bag. But actually coming out on China’s side...

Smfh I’m annoyed

 

[dontreadthis]

‪they said that man LeBron is tryna trademark Tianamen Tuesday

 

[YaThreadTrashB!]

This shyt was finally dying down


Now it's gonna be front and center for another week


He's going to have to make 8 more statements clarifying his previous statements

 

[Real]

Lebron got some nerve saying that morey was uneducated on the situation.


these athletes sometimes.

 

[Guile]

I'm sorry ya'll, but LeBron can't do shyt for the people in Hong Kong or Muslims in China or for Chinese citizens in general. Any bland statement he could release against China would get him twitter points but do nothing for aforementioned folks and potentially hurt him and his family financially. LeBron just pretty much implied the situation in Hong Kong is deeper than what Morey implied in his statement (it is) and that he won't speak on it. I would have preferred for LeBron to just avoid this situation with a 'no comment'. He has nothing to with it but he's the face of the NBA so he has to take the brunt of this apparently.

 

[yyy]

Misinformed about what
Tiananmen Square was 30 yrs ago my nikka
China got a MILLION Muslims in concentration camps RIGHT NOW
shyt is literally a police state with a 99% conviction rate


The fact these fakkits had a meeting with Adam silver trying get Morey FIRED is crazy
nikkas lost all credibility with this and it’s scary cause who is to say they wouldn’t flip on black issues if money was at stake

Why are they the only one's who get called out? Stop and think. Do you know how many American Companies do business in China? Do you know how many Americans do business with Authoritarian regimes around the world? Why aren't people ciriticizing Apple with the same passion they do these Black athletes?

Here is a list of all the Companies who do business in China...

This is just a small list of the companies who do business in China. Why aren't anyone calling them out.
China has already upped its purchases of U.S. agricultural products, according to Trump
What about the Farmers who sell food to China, anyone calling them out?
Bill Gates and China spur development of next-generation reactors
Is anyone calling Bill Gates out?

Of course the answer to all these questions is no. The only people who are being called out are the Black athletes, and the few coaches who support African-American's being treated as human beings. People who would never in a million years speak up about equality and human rights for African-Americans are no beating there chest and tearing down Black athletes because they are doing what everyone else does.

If Morey tweeted he stood with the people of Cuba and wanted freedom for them nobody would give a shyt because they're poor. But China got the money so everybody backpedaling better than Deion in his prime

 

[Sccit]

HAVENT READ THROUGH THE THREAD YET..

IS @Rhakim FAGOT ASS SOMEWHERE IN HERE JUELZING BOUT WHAT A COURAGEOUS ACT THIS WAS BY LEBRON?

You would do the same.

 

[Dreamchaser]

This is a sad situation, the only person who looks like he did the right thing was Morey. That dude was commenting about freedom and was bringing some awareness to those protesters in their fight for equality and everyone around him bent the knee. I think everyone here agrees that freedom is one of the most fundamental human rights. But, when one country with one billion people got your nuts you accept and don't ask any questions. Daryl Morey is not uneducated, he went to Northwestern and MIT, it's rich to have Lebron call him out on that when he never went to college.

Morey backtracked and cares about his job more than anyone in Hong Kong.
