    That is true, however, if he wanted to take that risk and put his job on the line he has the freedom to do that. With freedom comes consequences and repercussions! However, the Chinese are using whatever to impact US businesses due to this tariff issue...

    As people celebrate his stand against big bad China, a lot American jobs will lost if Silver can’t smooth things over. Morey himself, will probably not face any financial repercussions.

    I just feel for those who work for the NBA in China. They probably have their life set up there.

    That's true. Drugs, bullying, promiscuity and teen pregnancy are heavily disencouraged in Chinese schools. And yours do have a world class reputation for such things.

    No wonder this system keeps generating trash minds equipped with nothing but freedom of speech. Morons

    You can break these threads down into one side with people who were posting here two weeks ago and have thousands of posts and the other side with people with a couple of posts from years ago who have been dormant for years.

    Funny how cleanly it breaks down along those lines.

    He’s here to raise his Chinese social credit score.

    maybe he can get a promotion from shoe lace threader to boxer.

    This is going to happen 100%. Tilman in a tough spot now since he can't fire him for free speech, but rest assured Morey will be let go for any excuse available going forward.

    He put himself above the team and it's fans. Last time I checked he is not the spokesperson

    Billionaires and millionaires didn't get to that point by taking less.

    I have went to some NBA stores and events while I was working in Beijing. By far most of the workers are Chinese and operated by Chinese business partners of the NBA. In terms of American jobs theres actually very little effect.

    If anything it's all the sports stores and all the TV and streaming companies that will now suffer, and those are all Chinese. Adidas and Nike will also suffer, but that wont affect that much in terms of US employment.

    Why should I? I am here to witness the cry babies here suffering yet another mediocre season and watch Morey burn, and this organization implode violently

    You lack the neccessary IQ points to continue having a discussion with me. Please come back when you have more.

    He was either drunk, baited or paid, ...
    Either way for a guy who lives and dies by analytics.... This makes no sense from an analytical stand point.
    How much of a percentage did this stunt help the rockets win a title?
    How much money did he help his owner make by doing this?
    What was the financial gain to the rockets, other NBA teams, his boss, revenue stream?

    Exactly, he ****ed up! Hope he enjoys his 15 minutes

    Haha, dude.

    Do not put “American jobs lost” on Morey, that started a long time ago...
