The real villain is clearly Daryl Morey. Why didn't he speak out 10 years ago? Why didn't he wait until it was convenient for LeBron?

LeBron is the real hero here. Now he's just going to shut up and dribble.

Right on cue with his all too requisite response to something that absolutely no one happened to have suggested.

Hyperbolic, idiotic, and symbiotic of a dude that lacks a functioning brain.

Where oh utterly where would this place without the benefit of dopes like this inhabiting it?

NBA star LeBron James reportedly pressured the NBA to punish the Rockets’ General Manager Daryl Morey after he tweeted support for Hong Kong.

James argued that if something an NBA player tweeted had cost the league money they would have been punished, and questioned why the same wasn’t happening to Morey, according to Dave McMenamin on ESPN. 

“Nearly a week ago today, in a Shanghai hotel room, or Shanghai hotel ballroom, Adam Silver got up and addressed the players, and LeBron James is one of the players who got up and spoke and said, ‘Hey, what are we doing here? Daryl Morey made these statements,'” McMenamin recalled on air Tuesday. “You know damn well if a player made the same statements and caused such poor ramifications for the league, there would be some sort of league recourse.” 

“There would be repercussions the player has to pay. You know, potentially this tweet could cost the NBA hundreds of millions of dollars. That could come out of the players’ pockets, and so that’s the double standard that was being addressed in that meeting,” he continued. 

The comments by James were made during a players meeting on Oct. 9 before the Lakers vs. Nets game in Shanghai, according to a report published by The Athletic.

Was that right?

Yes because at the end of the day the NFL is a business and if something negatively impacts business then it needs to be addressed.

I have never really weighed in on Kaepernick because i understood both his and the league's position on it.

Its why i continue to reference the NBA's dress code policy. An argument can be made that its discriminatory and displays cultural bias but if the style of dress adversely effected business then it needed to be addressed. I always understood that.

Just like i understand the Kaepernick decision. You cannot reform the thinking of the NFL or the NBA without first reforming the thinking of the country.

However, LeBron thinks Kaepernick was done wrong by the NFL for his opinions.

You asked me for my opinion. Not Lebron's. He doesn't speak for me.

LeBron just LITERALLY said, "I'm going to shutup and dribble."

That's a weird piece to link after saying that. Outside of seemingly misunderstanding how the revenue is split in the NBA, there's nothing really wrong with that article. Certainly nothing coming close to reprehensible.
