...Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey has tried to defuse the rapidly growing fallout over his deleted tweet that showed support for Hong Kong anti-government protesters, saying he did not intend to offend any of the team’s Chinese fans or sponsors.
A short time after Morey posted that statement, the NBA said it was “regrettable” that the deleted tweet offended many in China. That followed several companies in China, including some of the NBA’s major business partners there, lashing out over Morey’s original tweet.
The uproar started when Morey tweeted an image that read: “Fight for Freedom. Stand with Hong Kong.”...
"Major business partners" = NBA-gear sweatshops.
Maybe Silver should move the NBA offices to Peking. That's "woke," ya'know.
