His job shouldn't be in jeopardy. He did nothing wrong.
If Lebron, Kerr, Popovich and even Silver can trip over each other trying to be the first to criticize Trump when he tweets something they don't like...
Morey should be able to speak out against a communist dictatorship that is actively oppressing people.
You think he said something bad?When employees cost employers money, they get fired.
Free speech has nothing to do with private sector employment. This isn't magical ideal world, it's the real world.
Doing one and not the other makes you a gutless hypocrite.
I'm a Kap supporter and 100% I agree with you. Can't have it both ways.
There's no real difference going on right now than what happened with Kap. A market has been affected (either domestic or foreign) and players in the league who didn't have anything to do with the situation are now having a microphone thrown in their face to have to answer their thoughts.
Morey shouldn't have to censor his opinion. Was it optimal or even smart from a financial perspective, absolutely not. But then again it wasn't for Kap either who's forfeited millions of dollars and a career in the NFL.
If he was an employee of mine.You think he said something bad?
And if he wasn't?If he was an employee of mine.
Honestly, regardless of what you think of Kap or his decision to protest, he did so KNOWING he was sacrificing a ton of money in the process. He basically ended his career to support a cause he believed in and spoke about social injustice. That at the very least takes a huge amount of conviction and dedication. His words weren't empty because he put his money where his mouth is. That in itself should gain some respect if you don't even agree with his actions.
But now you see the athletes refraining from speaking on it because it could hurt their pockets. It sucks that one singular tweet from a GM could end all business relationships between the NBA and China, but now that it has go full bore on it. Speak out against it. There's not really any going back at this point.
To be honest the guy on the Warriors I'm most interested in hearing speak about this is Klay. He's signed with Anta and I just read that they've cancelled their sponsorship for the NBA. I wonder what he'll say and what stance he'll take. He'd be sacrificing a shit ton of money if he's on his way out. But then again he'll have no shortage of suitors. Splash bro Under Armour gear would be $$$$$.
He did something dumb.And if he wasn't?
And you don’t think that would hurt the rockets business at home? Gm fired for being pro democracy.. good luck with that pr nightmare.If he was an employee of mine.
