October 27, 2012: Traded Jeremy Lamb, Kevin Martin, a 2013 1st round draft pick (Steven Adams was later selected), a 2013 2nd round draft pick (Álex Abrines was later selected) and a 2014 1st round draft pick (Mitch McGary was later selected) to the Oklahoma City Thunder for Cole Aldrich, Daequan Cook, James Harden and Lazar Hayward.

What is this supposed to mean? 7 years ago he acquired one of the NBA premier players and has FAILED to win a CHAMPIONSHIP which was the goal of his job description! Players get traded ALL THE DAMN TIME are we supposed to congratulate him for executing a trade now? Again, he's failed to reach the goal and his team this season is NOT beating the Lebron's or whoever advances from the east. His post was irresponsible and just plain STUPID! Free Hong Kong? How about free your ass from this damn office and organization?!? I'm getting madder by the second he isn't terminated and I'm ready to start blowing the "race whistle"...

They have the 3rd best win-percentage in the league since Harden came on board. I can only imagine what's it's done for their ticket sales and TV revenue. That's a win for any owner. 2. The NBA has pushed a super-woke agenda since Silver took over. Morey may have overplayed his hand assuming that the NBA actually cared about social issues more than they cared about that cheese.

Funk a win % WTF does that mean? For that franchise the goal is a championship and he's had MORE than enough time to deliver. The fact they've won that many games since Harden has come on actually HIGHLIGHTS the fact that HE has FAILED to provide competent running mates for Harden to get over the top! FACTS!!! 2. As the president of his corporation he didn't have any idea that his tweet would probably cause damage not ONLY to his franchise who happens to be IN THE BED WITH CHINA DOING 3 WAYS but also to the LEAGUE who is profiting enormous bank through this relationship?!? All the advertisers have to be refunded, the fans you built so much equity with are now either pissed off or no longer able to watch what OTHER people worked so hard to bring to china! All because he's an privileged, idiotic faking MORON?!? This is a loss of HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS at present and now an international ish storm! Free Hong Kong WTF?!? Bish, how about you go outside and help free the poor and impoverished right there in Houston?!? What about the nikey sweat shops in China he got something to say about that?!? Is Morey opening his doors to refugees since he so down for freedom?? GTFOH his ass should've BEEN fired or grown some faking REAL balls and stepped down by now. You cost your company billions of dollars how the FUKK do you keep your job when you're not even actually that good at it?!? If he was ANY race other than white his ass would've BEEN fired this ish is absolutely mind numbingly ridiculous!!!

This ish is crazy he should've been fired THAT DAY!!! imagine defending China The tweet was ignorant of the cultural differences and the current political state in HK/China, not to mention your business relationships. But the league supports freedom of speech. But like Doc said, freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences. The "honorable" thing to do would be to step down but this is 'MERICA! If They can soothe things without him losing his job, why not wait and see? Fertitta knows he'll be hired 5 minutes after it hits Twitter. Maybe text Yao before hitting that tweet button next time.

No Morey choose his boneheaded ego. As expressed you are not free from consequence.
And China is indeed correct. Suppose the people of Hong Kong use this as a reason for a violent uprising then what? It actually DOES compromise their national security!
It was a stupid and arrogant thing for him to do and his ass shouldn't be employed anymore.
Period.
His head would've solved this from the beginning but now the Chinese people can't see LeBron ball in China?
Wow...

I'm not ready to pull the race card but I'll say in any other industry, costing your employer the amount that will be lost would result in termination. It might have when Stern was running the show. People lose their jobs over social media every day.

It explains why 'Rump is still popular among certain sectors of the population. He is also the reason we hold no political sway over anything that could go on there.

The history aside, neither is the victim of an oppressive regime. And the people who don't care about HK also don't care about Puerto Rico cuz, brown. If there were protests in either place of the same level as HK, we'd be telling China to mind their own biz for telling us how to handle our bidness. But rest assured, someone would tell us

Well members of Congress disagree with you and are asking Adam Silver and the NBA to man up and tell China to suck it 1. Build upon your statement of October 8 in which you said “the NBA will not put itself in a position of regulating what players, employees, and team owners say or will not say on these issues” by clarifying that (a) NBA players, staff, partners, and fans in the United States are American persons-as such, you support their right to express their opinions no matter the economic consequences, and (b) while the NBA will follow Chinese law in China, the Chinese Communist Party must respect that the association will abide by American laws and principles in its global operations, including by not conditioning employment on any guidelines of expression on international political issues.gallagher.house.gov/sites/gallagher.house.gov/files/NBA%20China%20Letter.pdfRidge, enjoy your communism. World war 3 is gonna start because of a faking tweet from a basketball GM
