13352115, I think the widespread wealthy American support for HK is disingenous Posted by T Reynolds, Wed Oct-16-19 08:50 AM
If they were truly for democracy and freedom, where was this same energy in Latin America and the Middle East?
A lot of the support for HK is misdirected angst toward China as rising force in global politics
Don't get me wrong HK should fight for their independence, but they don't need some out of touch NBA owner tweeting for their cause.
Bron is 100% right that the NBA players should not be obligated to hold a position on the issue, especially since the NBA as an organization is reluctant to hold an opinion. Bron's concerns are limited to keeping players gainfully employed and serving the community he came from.
