Adam Silver and the NBA didnt put a gag order on anyone talking about this issue from a pro-HK/free speech perspective (see: Terry Stotts literally last night and like 10+ teeets by Enes Kanter). At literally no point in this whole affair has any player or NBA figure been forced into silence by any authority or punished for pro-HK views. Tilman Fertita is a huge asshole and absolutely sucks (in both this situation and matters unrelated) and attempted major damage control to the Chinese market for the Rockets and even he didnt give Morey so much as a slap on the wrist. Nothing will happen to Enes Kanter either.When everyone in the league is avoiding the issue I do not think it takes a genius (lucky for you) to realize that Silver has laid down the law regarding public dissent. And if not, then that means every player and coach in the league is apathetic or pro-China, which makes the league worth not watching even more. --- "A more mature answer than I expected."~ Jakyl25 "Sephy's point is right."~ Inviso ...

Find me a social or political issue that even 5 or 10% of NBA coaches and players have commented on. I bet not even close to 10% of the league has commented on Trumps presidency and thats way more relevant to their everyday lives and the country they live in. Even when Trump publicly called out Curry the vast majority of players and coaches didnt speak up about it, even though you know they have opinions on it. Its not their responsibility to speak out on every social issue. That doesnt mean that theyre apathetic or even pro-Chinese in this case; it is simply not necessary or beneficial for every player to make their opinion on every issue known and its ridiculous to expect them to. Its not a conspiracy. ... Copied to Clipboard!

To follow that up, heres Joe Harris supporting HK / free speech a couple hours ago. And hes literally on the team owned by Joe Tsai. There is no gag order. There is no conspiracy - the players who want to comment can say whatever they want. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Celebrities and athletes aren't obligated to use their influence to fight battles for the world. Imagine how draining that would be; they're just people like anyone else. Those that want to say something seem like they are, and those that haven't said anything shouldn't be judged I think.
