    I mean,,,,that very comment by Trump is in the OP. But, thanks for the different angle, I guess.

    Was wondering when he'd finally weigh in. It's pretty funny that he makes fun of Kerr for giving a no comment, then gives a no comment on the situation right after that.

    The root of all this are the Rockets. We are in the eye of the storm so yes it belongs in the GARM.

    The only thing that has saved our GM from being fired is the polical pressure on the league, and this is the president of the USA talking- the person with the highest authority.

    Coming from the guy who promised the Chinese president to not talk about Hong Kong protests? Lmao. Trump has no room to talk.

    Everyone is dang scared of China... But it's working on people, like Kerr... USA apparently is too free, people will mock it all day. Something we all take for granted, but I'd love for Kerr to have that same courage with a country that's only proven they are as controlling as people fear after their response to this tweet.

    I hate Trump, but he said what I was saying about Kerr a few days ago

    he always got something to say when it comes to politics, but when it came to this China issue he’s a mute all of the sudden

    If what you are saying is that the Storm will cease soon, then great...I'll wait it out. But in my many years posting in the GARM, I think you are naive. The ongoing crowding out of basketball talk in the GARM to post the lastest China news isn't going to end anytime soon.

    we have two other forums to choose from. Why overcrowd one?

    It’s an interesting duality for sure. People hate Trump and hate Kerr, even though they are on completely opposite sides of the spectrum on this issue.

    I kind of wish Trump wouldn’t talk about the NBA. The league will lose a lot of support from liberal voters simply because they don’t want to be with Trump on literally any issue, even one where they both otherwise agree.

    I believe it will once a few more days pass and Morey job is firmly secured. It already has dissipated some.

    It's preseason after all. I barely made it through 20 minutes of basketball before I was bored out of my wits watching no defence and bench warmers.

    Trump put out no tweets. The OP vid is a press conference. He was asked about the NBA/China issue.

    Yep, Trump deflected by throwing the meat of others.

    A sellout implying someone else is a sellout and also scared is so gawd damn annoying. Anyone saying Trump is right without first mentioning how much of a shill he is, or saying this is funny because he is right, and not because of the brazen hypocrisy exhibited, should be extradited to China.

    They’ll be fine imo. NFL was fine. NBA will be fine.
