The NBA has prided itself on speaking out on social justice issues. So why will it not speak out on China and its government's poor human rights record?
“Somebody could say given the system of government in China you, the NBA, should make a decision not to operate there. I would only say that at the end of the day, I think those are decisions for our government in terms of where American business should operate,” CCTV, a Chinese state-run TV station, declined to air the Lakers-Nets preseason games. Telecom company Tencent canceled Rockets coverage and all NBA preseason games. The Chinese government pressured the NBA to cancel an NBA Cares event with the Nets. Various Chinese companies have announced they will end partnerships with various NBA stars. CCTV has yet to air an NBA game this season.
Nice try.. 😂😂😂
Did you ask him what thought about nobody watching the games in the US?
It's all fun and games until someone gets killed. When the Chinese government decides to delete the NBA it will be because of the same problem we have here in America with the NBA and the NFL. Trouble
That’s so laughable it borders on idiocy. It’s all about the Benjamins!! NBA had its chance to make a statement about Hong Kong but those dollars got in the way
I do love double talk
Yeah don’t want to make intellect bro’s mad
Money. Nothing more.
The NBA are sellouts and owned by China now, stop watching them!
Does he also feel this way about Russia, North Korea, Iran
US🇺🇸is in need of stop speaking about: 'our values' without any regards for other countries cultures& principles. People-to-people🇺🇸🇨🇳 exchanges only can be productive, with mutual respect. It's evident, thatALL countries influences exist&if, not arrogant: learn from each other
Supporting an oppressive communist economy for financial gain undermines the league’s domestic social justice campaign. If the league believes in equality and human rights, then the Chinese road trips should end.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Translation: “We get a shitload of Chinese money under the table to perpetuate this bullshit and continue to destroy America from within. China gladly launders this money to us because we are helping to destroy America more than they could ever hope to. It’s updated propaganda”
Nice try! Holy hell that’s weak.
No. Your ratings in America are tanking, revenues are taking a massive hit so why not try another country communist.
Cancel NBA
NBA boss who spent so long condemning black activists wants to make more cash but pretends it's something else
Then why not play in Russia, Japan, Isreal, Sweden, Egypt, etc
A couple of million Uighers and protestors in Hong Kong probably beg to differ. NBA leadership are a bunch of hypocrites.
tell both china and russia they'll be kicked out of the un, they'll automatically act properly, they are that weak. but corporate interests don't want to so it's not going to happen, they are that corrupt!
$$$$$$$$&$&&&&$$ is what he knows
this same NBA would love to trade with Nazi regime if they are there in the 1938... 🙄
How can he say that with a straight face? $$$$$
The same reason the league’s stand roll their eyes at Republicans’ “bad faith” attacks on the nba’s support of China is the same reason Republicans roll their eyes at the nba’s attacks of their support for police. Both are full of shit
Shoes.. 99 cents. Suit. 1.80 dollars .. no nba talent since Yao Ming 0.00!!!! Get a grip!

There China, I said what you wanted, now where’s my check?
Not convincing.
China owns the NBA. America no longer considers the NBA an American company. It’s Chinese.
Chinese boot licker for money. Disgusting 🤮🤮
Does he really believe that?
These numptees would be in business with Hitler if it was the 1940's.
