When people think of the Nets, they think Brooklyn. When people think of the Knicks, they think NYC. Sh*t, when people think of the Mavs, they think Dallas. But when people think of the Rockets, they think China? Smh, the Rockets have been neglecting HOUSTON for too long. The day I walked into a store and all the snapbacks and a large number of the T-shirts in there had Chinese symbols on them was the day I had enough. Our jerseys should reflect the city of Houston, but we stay pandering to China. Rockets in so deep with China that 1 tweet caused a crisis. If this was Daryl Morey of the Milwaukee Bucks, how big of an impact does that tweet have? HOUSTON ROCKETS...not China Rockets
This is all because of Les pandering to China now it bites us and he left with billions in his pockets he wasn’t a billionaire when he bought the rockets He is no Steve Balmer He was a greedy bond salesman Can I go to Toyota center again and see ads for gallery furniture or Pappasitos again ?
This is a bit of a pivot from the OP, but one sort of good thing is that a quick sampling of Twitter seems to indicate that this is probably an issue that at least at the moment crosses the ideological spectrum with almost universal support of Morey and general disgust at the NBA's official statement. Hopefully that maintains.
That’s the whole point. It’s pure greed. The City edition Jersey is Chinese? WTF is that nonsense? Greed. Morey can’t have a political opinion because it might hurt Tilmans Chinese money? Screw that. Greed. I’m not sensitive about any of it though. I’ve criticized the City Jersey when it first came out. I never threatened to boycott the Rockets or some **** though. I just won’t buy that dumbass Jersey. The Chinese fans threatening to boycott the team are the sensitive b****es. Can’t handle an opinion which differs from their own. Everyone had better conform to the single govt voice. Even Americans. Yeah- no thanks. Buh-bye Communist fans. You won’t be missed by anyone other than Greedy Fertita.
**** China Get the Fk outta here with your concentration camps you're lucky no ones nuking you off the map bc you like to murder Tibetans, muslims, taiwanese and now HK'ers. You better believe no one in this country gives two shtis about your oppressive government and its propaganda The whole country stands with Hong Kong and the freedom of their people to choose their government. You don't like - you don't watch. Good riddance!
I completely side with Morey but I'm honestly surprised at him liking that tweet fully knowing this team is in bed with dirty Chinese money. Also, I hope we can get a rebrand after this fiasco. It's time to move on from the pure reds and go back to the classics.
Never said there's no teachers at bars. I said they're not supposed to be seen at bars drinking publicly, which is besides my point. You should visit a bar and locate one to help you with your reading comprehension. They're there because they don't give a ****. I taught for 12 yers and didn't care, but I also didn't care whether or not I lost my job because of it.
Since this thread is about the positives I have another one. Game of Zones entertainment. I cannot wait to see the interpretation of all this in the upcoming Game of Zones season. Will surely be awesome Thank you Morey!
Can we finally get rid of this logo? Spoiler And return to this logo? Spoiler The "R" (Chinese Era Logo) needs to go into the history dustbin like the Astros brown and black colors... You hear me, Tilman? Shut up and listen... to your team's fans.
The Rockets belong to Clutch City. Now you pathetic haters can go back to watching Lin throw passes into the stands. Yikes!
We commies don't mind our own business. Cuz your Morey is minding our business for us. Lol. WTH? You really sound more like a commie to me, trust me we've been commies and you look familiar.
