“I don’t want to get into a … feud with Daryl Morey [an NBA executive that criticized China over the Hong Kong protests], but I believe he wasn’t educated on the situation at hand and he spoke,” James said, before the Lakers hosted the Golden State Warriors for a preseason game Monday, in comments that drew criticism from American politicians. “So many people could have been harmed, not only financially but physically, emotionally, spiritually. Just be careful what we tweet, what we say and what we do. Yes, we have freedom of speech but there can be a lot of negatives that come with that as well. … Sometimes social media is not always the proper way to go about things as well.”
