Yup...why they were so quiet.

F the nba and F China.

Could be anyone and China.

NFL teams whose owners have hundreds of millions or more in China:
Rams
Lions
Falcons
Patriots
Jets
Panthers
Seahawks
Broncos (prospective new owner is a Walmart heir)

Anyone here reading this on an iPhone or Android device? Yeah.

All these companies should get out of China and especially Russia. But few if any will.

Ohh, I don't doubt it.... but a major reason the NBA went suspiciously quiet on covid and other matters is their economic model tied to China. They are dependent on them for some of their revenue sharing models and the media rights to how popular basketball is in China.

I think the NBA needs to do more in Europe. I would love to see a spring/summer league involving 8 NBA teams and 8 Euro teams. Set up 4 pods of 4 and a round robin then a 8 team playoff. NBA teams likely win, but it wouldn't surprise me to see 1-2 Euro teams sneak into the playoffs.
