A communist totalitarian government is strong arming an American company for not agreeing with its ideals. NBA should just walk away.
It will hurt in the short-term but long term the NBA doesn't have to appease censorship. It's a slippery slope. If you let China dictate what you can tweet, then what's stopping them from pulling the same stuff if lets just say Lebron said in a press conference that Xi was awful and China is terrible?
I wish the players would just say what they want anyway. What is the NBA going to do, silence LeBron or Harden? They need their stars and its pretty clear what side of the issue the western democratic fans are on here..
