The NBA is a joke, and has been a joke for a couple of decades now. You’ve heard about all the kerfulle about the NBA making the Houston Rockets GM take down his tweet supporting Hong Kong protesters. But now it gets worse. James Harden, a player on those same Houston Rockets has now apologized to China! Yes, Harden has apologized to the communist dictatorship of China. THis again shows you why Democrats are so power hungry. With cowards running around like Harden, they could impose their same style of communist dictatorship on America and idiots like Harden would sit back and clap.
James Harden isn’t some scrub in the NBA either. He’s a great scorer and one of the best players in the league. This is beyond appalling. The NBA needs an NFL style boycott.

James Harden's apology to China.
“We apologize. We love China. We love playing there…We appreciate them as a fanbase. We love everything there about them and we appreciate the support that they give us individually and as an organization. We love you."

Houston Rockets star James Harden on Monday apologised to China over a tweet by the team’s general manager backing Hong Kong’s democracy protests that cost the franchise TV exposure and sponsorship in the lucrative Chinese market.
The team and the NBA were forced into defensive mode as China’s state broadcaster said it was yanking Rockets games from the air and sponsors abandoned them.
The controversy quickly spread across the Pacific, as commentators and even a US presidential candidate rounded on the league for kowtowing to authoritarian Beijing.
In Tokyo, where the team is playing two exhibition games this week, Harden distanced himself from the controversy raging in the NBA’s biggest market outside the US.
“We apologise. We love China,” he said, standing alongside fellow Rockets guard Russell Westbrook.
