I was so excited to see how Russ and Harden would do reunited, along with the prospect of several different title favorites and the LA/LA rivalry heating up but
LeBron's comments really let the mask slip and showed what these people value and who they'll shill for. I never thought I'd see perhaps the greatest american athlete of my lifetime get down on his hands and knees and lick boots for a Chinese paycheck, but here we are. the whole thing has just left a disgusting taste in my mouth and my excitement for what should've been a fantastic season is completely decimated. It's sad. In the past I exclaimed my anger at Morey for what he tweeted and the timing of it, but I didn't realize at the time how it would expose people around the league so it ended up being for the better, even if this outcome sucks. --- "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Smash Ultimate Switch Code: SW-6933-1523-8505 ...

I don't think Lebron speaks for the entire NBA or all the players. I would like to believe the best about players I actually like anyway. It does a lot of damage to the image of the NBA though, I agree. I'm honestly baffled on why he said what he did.

Its a shame this isn't later in the NBA season because all the Lakers fans are blind right now. End of the season when they realize they are still mediocre he probably gets all the boos for it.

against... the Chinese? Obviously. You are okay with the athletes getting up and worshipping the US flag and troops every game, despite the fact our empire does exactly every single thing people oppose about China. Nobody cares that these guys take these explotative shoe company blood money or wear corporate logos on their jerseys. Like jakyl says, no ethical consumption within an unjust system. But suddenly you have a responsibility to stand up when the bad guy is Chinese. It seems racist. Nationalistic at best. If you can't enjoy the NBA without it's athletes being activists, you can't enjoy the NBA, because we all know what happens to athletes who stand up for the unacceptable causes. You can be woke, but you can't go after power. And you only care because it's Chinese dudes I guess. --- I'm baby ... Copied to Clipboard!

Seems off topic. No one was comparing the Chinese and American governments in this topic. Most of the NBA is openly against Trump anyway, which makes it rather strange with this China stuff. I suppose chocking it up to money makes sense, but honestly I'm still under the belief that the majority of the NBA isn't this tied down. Lebron is a pretty shitty person and he's proven that in numerous other situations before; I think this is just him being a Lebron.
