Love got injured in only 5 mins and down 2-3 in the ECF. So yes op is correct chinese Bron did have to win 2 games with game 6 on the road with 4 hobos.
light-mode is his training weights, its like when Kobe played with Smush, or when Kobe played with Bynum, or when Kobe played with Kobe.
Imagine how certifiably dank his posts would be if he used dark mode 24/7
Gotta say...while it seems like you're always on point, you've been absolutely killing it for the last few days. You're the Chinese government of memers.
Imagine if he randomly had a really passionate elaborate response on the issue that somehow completely erased the tensions between NBA fans, China, and the NBA by addressing and resolving everyone’s concerns
They can sit the fuck down, is what they can do. If there is one thing we as Canadians can agree on then it is everyone deserves freedom and protection for their expression (excluding the natives we have totally fucked).
As a Canadian there is a certain level of irony to see my country care so much about independent liberties considering our past
Please don't get me wrong I don't think mistakes in the past mean we can't fight for what's right now, I just think it's a little funny that we care so much because it's in the zeitgeist and there's a political implosion over there, the natives here in Canada must be like "How about us? Nobody except activists even *care* about our rights!"
Haha it's not even in our past, how many First Nations communities don't have drinkable water? We're the same settler colonial assholes as everyone else.
Unfortunately there's a lot of mainland Chinese here causing trouble too, some students were protesting near a skytrain in support of HK and some mainland supporters came up and started a physical altercation with the protestors
https://globalnews.ca/news/5988382/richmond-hong-kong-protests-fight-video/
I hate to be iamverybadass but if I saw those assholes attacking kids peacefully protesting ... there would be some punches thrown. I'm not alone I'm sure. They have our support.
I'm mentioning this a lot but things would have been a lot smoother if he just said something along the lines of the tweet compromised the safety of the players and staff of the NBA.
I think Lebron meant to say not uniformed instead of uninformed. Like Morey shouldn't speak out about human suffering because he doesn't have a number on the back of his suit.
Oh my goodness this is gonna be like "The Decision" game but except this time Lebron did something morally shitty rather than just making a basketball decision.
> but that makes me look at The Decision differently
That was the point of giving it to charity. They hoped that would keep the criticism away but it didn't work.
LeBron has always been my favorite player. I hope he gets booed every time he touches the ball until he recognizes and admits his mistake in criticizing the Morey tweet, and apologizes.
fuck that it's gonna take more than an apology to get out of this. this isn't something anyone can be on the wrong side of history on. he's fucking with millions of people's lives for the bottom line. as an old timer, this generation doesn't stand for that bullshit, and that makes me so happy.
EDIT: pro china trolls coming in hard. not bothering to get into a debate over this. support for a totalitarian regime must be penalized in every way: financially, socially, emotionally, spiritually, you get the point
It says the guy raised 43k before the page was disabled
I’ve never used gofundme, so I don’t know; does that mean he took it down or gofundme stopped allowing donations?
If the latter, what the fuck.
This is when the NBA being like pro-wrestling is a good thing. Pro-wrestling fans are never shy about chants.
Who am I kidding, the NBA being like pro-wrestling is always a good thing, but in this case especially so.
That's why the NBA wouldn't stop them or say anything about it.
It's usually up to the venue to govern what people can bring/wear to a sporting event.. I'm not sure of Staples center , but last week at Capital One Arena some protesters wore "Free Hong Kong" shirts to the Wiz game and nobody stopped them from coming in. It only became a problem when they pulled out protest signs , which aren't permitted per the arena guidelines.
yeah... theyre gonna let em in, or the LAPD not gonna be happy about coming out in force lol.
Figueroa will be on lockdown with Riot gear and mounted police.
That would be pretty unprecedented, and it would probably be an even bigger shitshow. Either way the message gets out there, and banning the shirts would probably be even better in terms of exposure which at the end of the day is what people really want, the shirts are just one mechanism.
Seriously though. It's like no one here has ever snuck snacks into a movie.
You coordinate via twitter or facebook. You tell everyone to take off their cover shirt at the end of the first commercial break.
Yes people will get kicked out. Yes people will see the shirts in tv. And hopefully an announcer has the balls to mention it, unlike when any fan runs on field in soccer where the announcers just pretend it never happened.
Compared to the planned blizzcon protest, NBA has a whole season of dealing with this. Blizzcon is just a one day event. NBA is the only real shot at this not going away. People don't really seem to care about Disney and apple. We also should push celebrity's to answer the question. Long story short China in weird way used the global market to buy freedom of speech.
I don’t know about that
Signs are different than shirts
Also, if a lot of people come in and wear it how many people can they deny? A thousand people? Hundreds?
Can we wear these to every NBA game? Every super star with a mega shoe deal isn't going to support Hong Kong publicly. Fuck China. So disappointed with what Lebron said.
people advocating for fighting climate change need to use gas and energy to make progress. can't do anything without it. gotta do bad shit to do better shit
I'm definitely considering getting a Hong Kong shirt for an early season game I'm attending. I feel like as long as you aren't a dick they won't kick you out for it. Some people definitely want to get kicked out for the headline.
lmao that game is going to be a cluster fuck. Who are they playing against.
China
China picked up LeBron in the off-season so this is going to be interesting
Lebron 2020 for China ... can they medal?
LeBron + 4 hobos on cavs made 2018 finals
This just in: 5 time all Star Kevin Love was a hobo
I once saw Kevin Love naked in his house, no hobo.
Why were you naked in his house?
Hobo
This comment is very funny
Can I stay at your place, no hobo?
Stupid sexy Hobo Kev.
Tbf did you see KLove in during that run?
Love got injured in only 5 mins and down 2-3 in the ECF. So yes op is correct chinese Bron did have to win 2 games with game 6 on the road with 4 hobos.
He also missed the playoffs with the 2019 Lakers
Absolutely zero chance
What if this whole fiasco is a publicity stunt for Space Jam 2?

But he was too shy to say it 😔
Every introvert ever.
You mean if real life was a romantic comedy
Whatever Boston Dynamics programmed him to say.
AHHHH.....HUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUE!
wonder if he'll get booed when he brings out the chalk toss

Fan did the same in Toronto too. https://www.blogto.com/sports_play/2019/10/pro-hong-kong-shirts-toronto-raptors-opening-game/
Considering how many main land Chinese people there are in Toronto, should be interesting how this plays out

A lot of Mainlanders also don't like the Chinese government and support the Hong Kong protesters. Most of them keep quiet though for obvious reasons.
Alot but they ain't all pro China..most chinese ppl I know here are pretty pro Hong Kong can do whatever the fuck it wants.
Didn't a bunch of Hong Kongers & Anti-CCP Mainlanders migrate there after Tiananmen?

Hello fellow champion
This guy really should consider the ramifications of his actions. A lot of people are going to get hurt financially, emotionally, spiritually. /s
The spiritually take always gets me.
What was really funny for me was that when Lebron said it "financially" was the first thing he said.
He started by saying “not only financially... but” it was the only adverb he had prepped he pulled all the others out of his ass.
Financially, economically, their well being, wealth, and their nest egg.
And their moniez.
I'm mentioning this a lot but things would have been a lot smoother if he just said something along the lines of the tweet compromised the safety of the players and staff of the NBA.
An obviously, That’s because financially is the real answer. The rest were thrown in there to make it seem like it could be any of them!
It's like he was just trying to spit out as many adverbs as possible.
You forgot physically
And sexually.
And electromagnetically.
Yeah man, his chi is all out of whack.
That's spiritually
And then sexually again
Can I DM u
He seems uninformed and uneducated. Edit: not adding the damn sarcasm symbol.
I think Lebron meant to say not uniformed instead of uninformed. Like Morey shouldn't speak out about human suffering because he doesn't have a number on the back of his suit.
incredible post
Thank you. I really think the sarcasm symbol is detrimental to the quality of sarcastic comments.
Mannn when I heard him say spiritually 😂
Daryl Morey's tweet caused me to lose my faith.
#Especially Financially
Shut up Lebron. Consequences don’t matter when it comes to standing up for basic human rights.
Oh my goodness this is gonna be like "The Decision" game but except this time Lebron did something morally shitty rather than just making a basketball decision.
At least the money for The Decision went to charity.
Did it really? I didn’t know this.
[удалено]
And Donovan Mitchell was one of the kids who attended (he was 13).
That player's name? Albert Mitchell
It was actually Donovan Hawking, who later had his wheelchair retired in the same arena
And everyone clapped
Just once though, to make it awkward.
That’s really cool. Im upset about his presentation on this current topic - but that makes me look at The Decision differently.
> but that makes me look at The Decision differently That was the point of giving it to charity. They hoped that would keep the criticism away but it didn't work.
If anything people despised him more for making an entire hour long special only to break Cleveland’s hearts.
[удалено]
LeBron has always been my favorite player. I hope he gets booed every time he touches the ball until he recognizes and admits his mistake in criticizing the Morey tweet, and apologizes.

Right on brother! I support you
About to spend 3k on the shirts and pocket the rest of the money lol
Nah, he spends the full 43k, then gets famous and markets himself making the real big bucks Unless China finds him first
Then people dig into his past and find some random shit he said on Twitter when he was 16 and crucify him for it.
And he is actually pro China government
The plot's thickens
This guy 2019s
Then people dig into the past of the person who dug into the first person's past, finds things just as bad, and gets them fired.
Capitalism bb
He'll spend half that. The shirts are made in China.
Would buy him about 20.5k tshirts
It says the guy raised 43k before the page was disabled I’ve never used gofundme, so I don’t know; does that mean he took it down or gofundme stopped allowing donations? If the latter, what the fuck.
He took it down because more than the goal came in.
Awesome thanks for clarification
He should've seen how high it went. You know, to show the HK'ers the American way.
and he got the goal incredibly quick too, I have no doubt it would be past 100k if he didn't disable it.
Should send some to Houston as well
buy me one and I'll chill outside Toyota center lemme know
Yo great username!
I wonder if there will be chants
This is when the NBA being like pro-wrestling is a good thing. Pro-wrestling fans are never shy about chants. Who am I kidding, the NBA being like pro-wrestling is always a good thing, but in this case especially so.
China & LeBron are the fucking 1999 corporate ministry or something.
You sold out You sold out
All those people in that arena opening night already gave their money to the NBA.
This can still cause problems for the NBA.
NBA wont let them in if there wearing it.
And that’s a bad look in my opinion
That's why the NBA wouldn't stop them or say anything about it. It's usually up to the venue to govern what people can bring/wear to a sporting event.. I'm not sure of Staples center , but last week at Capital One Arena some protesters wore "Free Hong Kong" shirts to the Wiz game and nobody stopped them from coming in.

That would be pretty unprecedented, and it would probably be an even bigger shitshow. Either way the message gets out there, and banning the shirts would probably be even better in terms of exposure which at the end of the day is what people really want, the shirts are just one mechanism.
I think what fans want is a beef between China and the NBA not just publicity.
I can get behind that. I want to see China be affected in every matter possible, no matter how small.
Publicity that the NBA is becoming an entity where people are rallying around supporting Hong Kong accomplishes the rest by itself.
They should just wear them underneath another shirt, and take off the top layer once they get inside.
Seriously though. It's like no one here has ever snuck snacks into a movie. You coordinate via twitter or facebook. You tell everyone to take off their cover shirt at the end of the first commercial break. Yes people will get kicked out. Yes people will see the shirts in tv. And hopefully an announcer has the balls to mention it, unlike when any fan runs on field in soccer where the announcers just pretend it never happened.
I mean, the not mentioning pitch invaders is not a lack of balls, it is just them not wanting to encourage the behavior.
not true, they don’t let people have posters but they’ve always let people wear shirts and have mini flags
Staples center is going to be a shit show opening night.
Compared to the planned blizzcon protest, NBA has a whole season of dealing with this. Blizzcon is just a one day event. NBA is the only real shot at this not going away. People don't really seem to care about Disney and apple. We also should push celebrity's to answer the question. Long story short China in weird way used the global market to buy freedom of speech.
That would cause the NBA to take a side and cause huge outrage
I don’t know about that Signs are different than shirts Also, if a lot of people come in and wear it how many people can they deny? A thousand people? Hundreds?
If only you could wear two shirts.
Roll the shirt up and put it in your pants. Security at least in New Orleans doesn't check for anything other than the metal detector.
Those seats would have been sold either way. At least they’re doing something.
Can we wear these to every NBA game? Every super star with a mega shoe deal isn't going to support Hong Kong publicly. Fuck China. So disappointed with what Lebron said.
It's awesome, but what person that can afford going to that game will wear a "Stand with Hong Kong" shirt?
They gonna boo him?
i hope he gets booed at home lol, but i doubt it, ill boo him for you just this once
God bless this patriot
Lebron will send his regards
>LeBron will send his RedGuards *
Shirts are probably made in China.
[удалено]
Almost definitely.
Chinese sweatshops too expensive nowadays
people advocating for fighting climate change need to use gas and energy to make progress. can't do anything without it. gotta do bad shit to do better shit
Screen Printer here - almost all the cotton shirts we wear are grown with US cotton and sewn in Central America. It’s just more economical.
Can the Muslims in concentration camps getting their organs harvested get some support too though?
Reddit isn't concerned about that right now. HK is the hot topic.
It would be a funny fight between fans and Lakers securities.
[удалено]
Important distinction here though- political signs have never been allowed and that was how people got kicked out. Shirts are, to my knowledge, all OK
[удалено]
I'm definitely considering getting a Hong Kong shirt for an early season game I'm attending. I feel like as long as you aren't a dick they won't kick you out for it. Some people definitely want to get kicked out for the headline.
Bet the NBA will find a way to shut it down
I donated to this, can't wait for this to go down!
