One thing for the NBA to insult and bully Americans and states where there is no coordinated way to fight back, quite another when your so called "business" partners in China are puppets of the Communist party who can coordinate a punch.

I don't care about the NBA so I haven't followed this. But as far as I can see, this is a Social Justice Warrior type who wanted to "stand for something". Like Colin Kapaernick who wanted to "kneel for something".

Maybe just doing your job is a good idea. Why politicize everything?

The NBA players and league have now fallen silent. It’s easy to condemn Trump, but they have fallen silent on communist china and their murderous country.

China must be the nation that the National Basketball Association represents.

It isn’t the USA.

I for one have sure been impressed with all the support the NBA has gotten from Hollywood in this matter.

(Is a sarcasm tag really needed here?)

Looks like social justice stops at their wallets.

The NBA and its players make billions pushing Chinese-made gear, some of which is made in slave labor facilities. I wonder when they'll be called to pay reparations?

Numerous large companies have massive ties to China, it is not just the NBA.

Pretending that the NBA is the only organization that is sucking up to China is laughable.

> All of the NBA’s official Chinese partners have suspended ties with the league

They were just looking for an excuse. Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas...

Last night Laura Ingraham had an interesting segment about China and the NBA. She was pretty torked off about NBA siding with China and communism instead of Hong Kong and liberty.

And so many of the players claim to be Muslim and China loves to round up Muslims, then beat and starve them.

You’d think the players would be striking because of China’s involvement.

No surprise that the NBA would side with the ChiComs.

Look at the Democrats.

Obama has said not one thing is support of the Hong Kong protesters and neither has Hillary or any of the Democrats running for president.

All the Democrats are silent in their support of Hong Kong.
