    [Guess this belongs rather here than in the NBA Dish]

    Kanter seems to get bored by receiving death threats only from Erdogan fanatics, now he does a Morey and stands up against Chinese oppression.




    The Chinese of course immediately cancelled the broadcast of the Knicks/Celtics game. Guess that salary cap will stagnate a little longer.

    God I wish a few of these "woke" athletes would have the balls to stand for something.

    When it comes to their money, pro athletes are no better than greedy old republicans. I'm fine with that, just don't pretend to be something else when you know there's no blowback. Jordan's republicans buy sneakers mentality never bothered me.

    If so he should have the balls to say something what's going on over there. Unlike that lady on that fake news station we the people need him and others to do more than just dribble a basketball speak out about things like this and other injustices that are taking place.

    And that's one of my biggest problems with guys like him they have the peoples ear but won't say anything it's sad to think of all the issues that can be brought to the light if their they would just speak out. Don't get me wrong lebron is just one their are so many that the people will listen too.

    The nba saw what happened when Morey tweeted

    if they don’t take a stand then China will own them

    China isn’t a bunch of cross dressing attention getters mad at some jokes on Netflix

    NBA can survive without china they are only one market if the NBA can grow a pair and stop letting china get away with doing wrong and stand up.

    As far as I know Netflix doesn’t even do business in China and they’re doing just fine.
