It's like he doesn't understand that players in a sports league that's composed of 80% Black players would be more likely to support social justice causes than wanting to "support law enforcement" or call out China. Oh wait, it's just an attempt to play "but both sides". (In this case it's the ability for "both sides" to be put on NBA jerseys???) NBA players aren't politicians anyway and most don't really care or know that much about foreign relations/countries. (Cue Charles Barkley's famous quote "I don't know anything about Angola. But Angola's in trouble." during the press conference before a match against Angola in the 1992 Olympics that the US won 116-48.)
If they want to speak out about it, good for them. But, I doubt many of them care enough about Hong Kong or China to stake their careers on it.. Obviously they are likely to be more outspoken about BLM and social justice because it affects them personally.
Well apparently some players were told they weren't allowed to have messages about hong kong about back on jersey but i am not sure if that story is true.
Anyway if he called out LeBron on this it would be ok because LeBron did tell Morey to Shut Up and Dribble but Silver on the other hand stood up to the Chinese
