    Good. Keep it coming.

    I want to see it making national headlines and Lebron humiliated for this disgrace.

    I knew he's a jerk. Can't wait to see the Rockets beat the crap out of the Fakers.

    Lebron should have educated himself on how Harden was cremated when he simply said he loves the Chinese Fans. Harden didn't say another word after that.

    LeBron went from "Im not educated enough to comment on the subject" to "I am educated enough to know Morey isn't educated enough" to "Morey wasn't educated on the the ramifications"

    This is precisely the reason why the sports world should stay out of politics. For those who do feel the need to voice their displeasure in politics any other time, I dont fault them for speaking about this subject one way or another. However cowards like Kerr and LeBron are completely different. If they are not ready to lose everything, then they should just 'shut up and dribble'.

    I think he would have been better served just giving a nothing answer.

    For example...

    "I don't know enough about the issue to really talk about it..."

    Instead of basically saying someone else doesn't know.

    I'm not mad that it took a week, I wouldn't want to say anything about China while in China either, even if I'm Lebron, but he has to give a better answer than to go after Morey which is what the government of China wants.

    I'm also 90% sure just based on these comments that he's the one that was meeting with Silver and other players leading the charge for Morey to be 'disciplined' because that's what this is really about in the end.

    Had the Rockets fired Morey after those comments China wouldn't have fussed so much about it.

    OHHHH It gets better and better!!!

    Every clarification will make the backlash bigger!
    He has no self realisation of what he is saying right now.

    His team needs to get him off twitter and maybe he needs to get educated about the situation before commenting again...
    At this point he's...

    So we should keep our mouth shut when people are dying in concetration camps because a billionaire will lose some millions?

    These people better realise that the only reason they make $ off basketball is because of fans.

    So dumb for him to tweet because now everyone going to reply directly to his tweet now instead.

    He basically just brought a flamethrower to the fire he's started.

    Someone in Lebron's team needs to be fired.

    There is a lot of pressure for these Athletes to have the right answers all the time. With all Lebron's access and advisers, you would think he would come up with a better answer. Morey was educated enough to not apologize and appease 80% of the people.

    No. If you feel that strongly about your beliefs then express your opinion and put the burden on you. Give up your $$. You don’t have to bring those ramifications on everyone.

    a couple more tweets like that and Lebron is going to lose more money than if China straight up banned the NBA.
