LeBron James said Houston Rockets' general manager had no 'consideration for the consequences and ramifications of the tweet' in support of the Hong Kong protests.
"We all talk about this freedom of speech, yes, we all do have freedom of speech. But at times, there are ramifications for the negative that can happen when you're not thinking about others and you're only thinking about yourself," James told reporters ahead of a game against Golden State.
After making those remarks, James took to Twitter to clarify his statements saying that Morey had no "consideration for the consequences and ramifications of the tweet" and he could have "waited a week to send it."
