Screw the Chinese government. I stand with Morey and Hong Kong and the NBA should support HOU.

    Then we laugh at Yao. Because we're not sociopathic control freaks like the Chinese Communist Party.

    That you even think this example would bother people to the extent that Morey's tweet bothered your superiors, shows just how out of touch you are.

    I'm Chinese, and I support the Hong Kong protestors in principle. I also don't want Daryl to get fired. However, I think it's hard to argue that his tweet was ill-advised--this whole firestorm could have been avoided if he had exercised some discretion in what he said in public.

    The Chinese government is already ****ed up enough... Please don't affect my Rockets too.

    Don't forget about the Native American.

    Columbus day is coming up and we still celebrate the destruction of the native Americans

    Remember that time they ran over protesters with tanks and still try to cover it up to this day for some reason?

    Yeah screw any government that tries to censor history. Human rights should never be a bargaining chip for the sake of profit.

    U said that there’s nothing wrong for hating someone for any reason. So I guess it’s ok to hate someone for something like their skin color according to u.

    if they weren’t watching the Rockets because Harden is a “cheater” then maybe what u said might actually make sense, but that’s not the reason

    No, you are terrible in your own country’s history.

    Food coupons system was used in Mainland China since the 60’s till almost the end of 70’s. You should check with you grand parents to learn more.

    What, how is someone disliking Morey for his opinion any different from someone disliking Harden for his playstyle? Don't act like what the Chinese are doing is akin to the plight of minorities in American history. We are clearly not talking the same type of hate.

    Well with all due respect Morey started all these and deserves that. He’s the lighter and those Chinese mobs cursing him are just chain reactions after him setting the fire up. But if you think Chinese = Evil in the first place. Bullying China in the name of FreEdOm is political correct then we are done here. The only thing we can make you happy is kneel down, slap our face “sorry we are evil” and suck your dk. No we won’t. Why? We are good.

    Fun fact again. Just before Morey’s controversial Twitter, Rox fans on China local sports websites/apps were treating Morey as hero and looking fwd to the new season, James&Russ duo, cursing LA fans... but sigh.

    I have no idea what you just said. It's a bad idea to read and write with translation softwares they don't really work that well for anything beyond single words

    Morey is dumb for tweeting what he did and he knows it, that's why he deleted it right away. China is petty for banning Rockets games. Yes all parties have a right to their actions, but there is still right/wrong.

    nah we know, but that’s because Yao isn’t an idiot and actually wants the best for his daughter.

    This is bigger than basketball. Thank you for starting this thread. Our values are at stake. ESPN's coverage seems cute in comparison. This is the stuff that the greatest generation (draft class of '84) died for.

    Morey knew what he was doing and he was putting principles over business.
