- The NBA has canceled all media access for the remainder of its visit to China as it puts players in a "complicated" and "unfair" situation, it said.
The league is embroiled in a standoff with China after the Houston Rockets' general manager Daryl Morey tweeted his support for the pro-democracy movement in Hong Kong.
The announcement comes a day after CNN's Christina Macfarlane was shut down by a Houston Rockets' media officer as she tried to ask James Harden and Russell Westbrook a question about the NBA's position with China during a news conference in Tokyo.
"They [the teams] have been placed into a complicated and unprecedented situation while abroad, and we believe it would be unfair to ask them to address these matters in real time," said an NBA statement Friday.
Macfarlane has since received an apology, with NBA spokesperson Mike Bass saying the incident was "inconsistent with how the NBA conducts media events."

Well, the guy traded for Westbrook, so he might as well go all-in with his destructive habits.
True. Although if Westbrook loses his explosiveness, we could be saying the same about him in 3 years.vanillabryce said:BaylorOkie said:

He did manage to get rid of what is, perhaps the worst contract in the NBA.

What if they wrote "souvenirs" in tiny letters below "FREE HONG KONG"

I don't think you understand the term political correctness.Ashley Hodge said:
political correctness has run amok... the guy stood up and said "free Hong Kong". I kind of understand not allowing that to continue but taking away freedom of expression to make political statements that is not vulgar? That is a slippery slope...
Are you implying that African Americans do not experience real social injustice?ccbear said:
Morey is an MIT grad...he's plenty educated on the issue.
LeBron is quick to frequently be a social justice warrior and tweet public support for Kaepernick or regularly speak up on other "social justice" issues if his convictions line up with those that are relevant to him. However he seems to be unusually silent when real social injustice is being done, as in this case. It is pathetic at best to realize how anticipated financial gain derived from China, in this case, finds him now publicly taking a position opposing those in real need.
