fuck Adam Silver
Who the fuck is Joe Tsai to walk into America and talk about what is and isn’t acceptable speech by American citizens? His rationalizations of today’s fascism using yesterday’s tragedies is hilariously similar to Putin.
Just saying “it’s a business” when someone/some corporation does something shitty doesn’t absolve the person/corporation.
The “well, yeah, it’s a business” line of thinking is exactly the problem.
In a shocking development, Adam Silver and the NBA are no more socially conscious or woke than Goodell and the NFL. It’s just that their pressure points come from mainland China rather than MAGA jorts territory.
Pop weighing in would be an interesting wrinkle here.
No surprise that Tillman Frittata only cares about collecting more eggs.
Those were my thoughts exactly. I have a 17 & 18 in the driveway so what I want in a new car is pretty useless right now, but i didn’t even bother test driving a GM before I bought those because none of them were appealing enough relative to the competition. The TourX wagon was the only one that almost got me to go…
2nd gear: “Mr. Nada” would be a great name for an Austin Powers villain.
Capitalism: Where everyone races to swear fealty to the new, rich market for short term growth.
The NBA really misplayed this. If China is sincerely this afraid of one person within one organization, the NBA could have struck a much harder line and forced China to be the bad guy. You want to suspend all NBA access to all Chinese fans and escalate all of this dramatically just because someone in America said…
The Nets owner’s statement...am I like, supposed to feel sympathy to the Chinese government or something? “By now I hope you can begin to understand...”
But Harden and the rest of the NBA can’t even say they support the people of HK while also kissing Xi Jinping’s ass.
I was sleepy so maybe I mis-heard him this morning on SC, but James Harden seemed awfully accommodating to the Chinese government while speaking to reporters in Japan about this. It’s one thing for an idiot President to sell out Hong Kong (not to mention the Kurds, but they don’t buy a lot of NBA merch so let’s leave…
Interesting that a guy with Taiwanese roots would dance for China’s leaders like that. Looks like he wants the Nets to fill the void left by the Rockets.
Neutral: Since I am not looking for a new vehicle you may not want an opinion form someone in my position but the headlines wouldn’t bother me at all since I wouldn’t be shopping for a GM vehicle.
accusations of financial misconduct has become an orgy of distrust and finger-pointing.
China, stick to sports.
This whole saga has been really sobering to show how the NBA only cares about social issues when they dont effect their bottom line. James Harden literally just apologized for Morey’s tweet. A PRO DEMOCRACY tweet.
