This was a picture of a pseudo intellectual that has been exposed as a dumb shit. The world knows that it is NIKE that rules the NBA. A shoe company owns the NBA which has a huge business with all of the little Chinese peasants in China. I guess that Stevie must know that right? After all he is a self proclaimed genius and has a brother who is an international expert about China, right? Nike loves the virtual slave labor in China cranking out those silly and crappy shoes. And the NBA loves CHINA. So essentially these millionaire illiterate jocks in the NBA LOVES SLAVE LABOR cranking out these shoes.

Kerr should know better. His grandfather was a hero who exposed authoritarian regimes and his own father died at the hands of authoritarian religious fanatics. But Kerr, instead chooses China over the US in his equivocation of these two things being equal.

I say that the Us ought to really take a look at where the corporations of the US loyalties reside. Clearly it isn't Nike. Clearly it isn't the NBA. Clearly it isn't the NFL. Clearly it isn't Apple, Facebook, Twitter, et al. I think that the US should really look at what these companies are doing to aid and comfort the US enemies in its technology, economy, etc at the expense of where their company is based.

This hurts. I am a huge Steve Kerr fan, but OMG I cannot believe what he just said. He just made things 10 times worse. Why is it so hard to say China interment camps are bad and what does 2nd ammendment rights have to do with China?

This is all just so weird.


Sorry, Cookie, that this hurt you. Kerr was a good long range shooter as a basketball player and a very successful NBA coach. The sooner people realize that this is all these guy's are and are not suited for opinions on social issues more than you and I are. I was a terrific project manager and MIS director and a very good baseball coach. But my opinion on politics is just that, opinion.

There are several inextricable truths that have always existed but that this issue has laid bare:

- There are an infinitesimally small number of people on Earth willing to truly sacrifice economically to help a "greater good"

- Not a single person in the NBA has yet shown that they are one of those people

- This makes their opinions on any social issue even less meaningful than they were before, if that is possible

- Like most of us, celebrities have not fully considered their woke views and the glaring hypocrisy they exhibit each day

- "Speaking out" about things in which there are no repercussions or disagreement is not brave

so these NBA players have been back in the US for a few days and have continued to shut up. Anyone wish to continue making the case that this is "for their safety" and not for their wallet?

LeBron lead a players only meeting in China. I guess they concluded to not say anything about Hong Kong.

And now I expect 10 more pages overnight after Lebrons comments. Any social justice work is total BS and I am fine with that.

How do all these people need to be educated on an issue one learns in elementary school.

Morey is apparently not properly educated on the virtues of authoritarian ethno states or the heinous evil of those who oppose them.

For those wondering if/when there is an appropriate time to invoke the word cûnt, calling LeBron one makes the short list easily.

Good for Morey for speaking out. Fuck the NBA for squashing him and others like a bug while allowing many of their players and coaches to be assholes in how they disrespect the country.

Last week: "Why hasn't LeBron said anything?"
This week: "I don't like what LeBron said. Who asked for his opinion?What an idiot!"

Staying quiet would've been better than LeBron being a shit.

Deadspin, who has spent its entire existence kissing LeBron's ass, is even dunking on him

LeBron literally draws his money from China so it's fair game to expect him to take a stand and then smack him down when he kisses the ring of a regime responsible for nearly 100 million deaths in the last 70 years.

No it wouldn't. He was going to take a beating no matter what.

I understand why he would want Morey to wait a week. The players probably pissed themselves a little bit and were concerned about their safety.

LeBron: Deadspin :: Johnson : Kronkite

The great fighter-pilot-ace genius LeBron finally stepped neck-deep in the shit and no one can get him out of it this time, I love it.
