LeBron James isn’t thrilled about Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey’s decision to thrust the NBA into controversy by … expressing support for people protesting the oppressive and repressive communist Chinese regime.

So the last thing James et al. need is for people like Clay Travis to keep piling on:

This tweeter may be the source of that “marketing slogan”:
Nike pulls Houston Rockets gear from stores in Beijing and Shanghai.
