Chapter 1326 NBA's Revenge, Morey's Fate
In the following time, Tatum told Tang Tian all the revenge plans one by one.
After hearing this, Tang Tian felt a chill behind his back.
Sure enough, if interests were touched, and even jobs were involved, the NBA would not pay for revenge.
"I came to you today because I hope you can call on the players and the league to speak out together."
Tatum finally said the purpose of coming to Tang Tian.
"I agree."
Tang Tian nodded.
Morey almost missed the NBA and China. In other words, he violated the dual interests of players and fans.
He had no reason to refuse such a voice.
After leaving Tang Tian's manor, Tatum returned to New York to hold an emergency regular meeting of the alliance.
He announced the information he received at the regular meeting and suggested that any NBA team should no longer hire Morey.
This proposal was approved unanimously.
These bosses usually fight a lot, but when it comes to the overall interests of the NBA, they still stand on the same front.
On October 22, US time, there is only one day before the opening of the new NBA season.
On this day, Darrell Morey announced his formal entry into politics, and he will run for the new mayor of Houston.
His campaign was supported by many fans and MPs, and it was labeled "free speech".
It can be felt that although the previous Twitter incident was suppressed, he still won a lot of support for his career.
And this time point is also very interesting. Announcing his career in politics when the NBA is about to start is like a mockery of the NBA.
Look, I still go to work on this day. Although I am no longer the general manager, I can be the mayor, which has more power than the general manager.
But at the same time Morey announced his entry into politics, the NBA officially announced the news.
"The NBA will never hire Daryl Morey."
There is no explanation and no reason, just a simple sentence like that.
The news was very shocking, and the fans didn't come back to their senses.
Although Morey resigned because of freedom of speech, the NBA dared not mention anything in this regard.
Why did you get hardened all of a sudden?
Before the fans recovered, ESPN's "American Yang Yi" Stephen A. Smith delivered an impassioned speech on the show.
In his speech, he raged that Morey's previous tweeting behavior was a child's behavior, which was completely irresponsible.
He also raged that Morey almost obliterated Yao Ming's contribution to the Rockets and the NBA. Morey was sorry for Yao Ming, the Rockets, and the fans.
Later, he also grasped the point of Morey's political career, and boldly speculated about the sinister purpose of Morey's tweets, which was to win chips for his political career and use the Rockets and the NBA as tools.
"Darrell, the Rockets don't need you, the NBA doesn't need you, Houston doesn't need you."
Smith's final words were quite intense.
This also instantly detonated social media in the United States.
Why Morey tweeted, most Americans understood it as freedom of speech before, and to put it simply, I can say whatever I want.
But no one thought that there was such a complicated thing in it.
Especially those fans, many of them like freedom of speech, but they don't like being used as a gun!
Especially when they are used as guns, and they will support those who used them as guns later!
However, some Morey's supporters quickly questioned.
Smith is famous for his big mouth in the United States. Many people watch his show just to spray him.
In the absence of evidence, Smith is blatantly slanderous.
As in the past, a large group of people began to complain about Smith.
But soon, former Rockets boss Alexander stood up and spoke out.
He didn't say much, basically just the message that he knew from sources that Smith was telling the truth.
This one stone caused a thousand waves. Although this is not direct evidence, everyone knows the relationship between Alexander and Morey.
Moreover, Alexander sold the team and stood up to speak out, which shows that Morey's problem is very serious!
However, defamation is a felony, and many people still seek real evidence.
At this time, FOX Sports broke the news about an article that Morey opposed freedom of speech because of the school shooting in college.
At that time, the young and energetic Morey was very disgusted with the safety issues brought about by freedom of speech. He believed that freedom must be within some rules.
Obviously, a student who opposed free speech was like throwing a grain of sand into a lake at that time, and no one felt it and no one cared.
But at this point in time, when this old story is revealed, the meaning is completely different.
Morey has been hailed by his supporters as a champion of "free speech," a label he has labeled.
Then you came back and told us that he used to be an opponent of free speech? !
Regardless of when it happened, in the United States, this kind of thing is the same as a criminal record, which is accompanied by life.
You said that you will carry it with you until your death.
This is also a characteristic of the United States, and most politicians are extra careful about these things because they are scandals to them.
Finally, Tang Tian called on many NBA stars to comment on the Morey incident.
They felt that Morey's behavior was selfish and seriously violated the freedom of speech that the NBA has always respected.
This part, after the NBA beat Morey to death, nailed the coffin board to death.
This series of incidents made Morey's head hurt.
He didn't even have a chance to breathe.
After one day passed, and when he woke up the next day, his Twitter had already been bombarded by fans.
And among those who bombed, many were still his supporters yesterday.
Obviously, although most people are easily agitated, no one is a fool!
Some radicals even threatened to tell Morey to be more careful.
This is also the biggest difference between American keyboard warriors and domestic keyboard warriors. They really have guns.
This time, Morey's career in politics had only started for one day, and it was about to come to an end.
And what's more deadly is that after his anti-freedom of speech label is put on, let alone the NBA, other sports leagues are completely afraid to invite him.
In other words, what he lost was not only his official career, but also his financial career.
This time, I'm afraid his shrewd mind never thought of it.
And of course his safety.
At one point, he even missed his days in China. After all, there, you don’t have to worry about being shot at while walking on the road, and you don’t have to worry about someone breaking into your house with a gun.
Morey's twitter is still being bombarded, but it was soon discovered that Morey disappeared.
From Twitter, but also from his residence.
No one knew where he went, or even if he was still alive.
Just like Tang Tian felt after hearing about Tatum's revenge plan, this is really not worth his life.
