basically telling the rockets to correct the mistake. I think everyone who is against china on this issue should protest the Chinese Consulate in Houston, in a peaceful manner of course..
Spokesperson for the Consulate General in Houston spoke on the mistakes made by the Rockets general manager in Hong Kong We expressed shock and strong dissatisfaction with the fact that Rockets general manager Morey made a false statement about Hong Kong. He has already made solemn representations to the Rockets asking the team to clarify, correct the mistakes immediately, and take practical measures to eliminate the bad effects. At present, the fight against violence and the restoration of order are the broadest consensus and the strongest appeal of all sectors of society in Hong Kong. Anyone with a conscience should support the efforts of the Hong Kong SAR Government to maintain social stability in Hong Kong. Consul General Cai Wei held a reception to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Russia.

Here is the simple translation for you : don’t need to give a fork. They will neither bring any sponsors to the Rockets nor helping us to sell more tickets anyway. And they definitely don’t have any leverage to demand anything else. So why bother whatever nonsense they will say when Morey is clearly right on his tweet?
Also if any Chinese want to defend the Houston Chinese consulate, I got this for you : There are so many robberies happened in Chinatown the last couple years and the consulate absolutely did sh’t about it.
Rockets on every single major website!! Headline news Rockets!!! https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/07/houston-rockets-gm-morey-deletes-tweet-about-hong-kong.html
The China consulate just gets its orders from China, right? What exactly does they want the Rockets to do? Send Morey to a re-education camp?
They just wanted an apology and they got one. We are an American organization at the end of the day and Morey just stating that is enough to be honest.
