i think it was more in line with what cocobrotha2 said in his second line

"the point LeBron was trying to make (poorly) is Morey put the league, a couple teams in China at the time and many of it's most popular players at risk on some ill-conceived whim. Morey misconstrued how sensitive China was to the topic and how invested the league and many players are in the Chinese market."

and there's an argument to be made against that as well on whether or not that's a cowardly take, but the interpretation of bron saying "educate" seems to be that he's taking China's side or saying stop fucking with his $. Which i think is unfair but also kinda Bron's fault for wording it the way he did.
