(Harden refuses to sign 76ers jersey at event)

[“For insulting Morey in China, I must give Harden a big thumbs up”](https://i.imgur.com/DKsHVYl.png) 莫狗 is a derogatory way to refer to Morey, literally Mo-dog, which comes after his controversial (in China) pro-Hong Kong stance in 2019

    Comrade harden vs capitalist Morey who wins

  2. Physical_Cry9336

    James harden is eyeing his next big contract in china

  3. JordanHawkinsMVP

    I didn’t even consider the fact Harden said this in the country that hates Morey the most

  4. Raddish3030

    Harden already new favorite of the CCP.

    He just needs to state the narrative on Tiananmen Square, Xinjiang, Hong Kong/Taiwan and Tibet to fully win the CCP stamp of approval.

    Sidenote this forum is awesome, I’m browsing the Grizz section and there’s a girl (that seems to be a 10/10 in Chinese beauty standards) who posted happy birthday to Ja with a selfie in a Ja jersey and the replies are about what you would expect

    Edit: they call Ja 枪王 which means “Gun King” LMFAO

    20/6/8 during the playoffs on 40% shooting playing no defense as a 34 year old SG with a history of playoffs blunder expecting a long-term max is completely delusional.

  7. Lol I understand the sentiment but this does nothing to hurt the Sixers and just bums out a fan

  8. Harden is done as a sixer. He’ll still show up and collect the cheques, but he won’t even listen to a word Nurse will be saying 😂.

    Who breaks Wilt’s 100 pt record first? Dame or Harden?

    Stay in China James – you can get your bag and then some

  10. orphicwitch

    netflix or some streaming service needs to do a _f1: drive to survive_ type show about the nba. the drama doesn’t even need to be sensationalized, it’s already insane enough

    “”I didn’t expect Harden to be so brave and speak out on a sensitive topic? Is he drunk?”

    Chinese natural jerker

  12. FallenLemur

    This could all be made up, and I would have absolutely no idea.

  13. grapedinosour

    It’s funny how in China being called ‘anything-dog’ is an insult, but in North America it’s a major compliment or term or endearment / toughness.

  14. Stillintherapy

    Morey really stung that populace with his pro-HK comments lol they weak.

    Feel for Harden though. But lol at them supporting simply because he dissed Morey

  15. luvvdmycat

    Dear reporters please ask Harden if Taiwan is a country.

  16. PetalumaPegleg

    They freaking hate Morey so I expect Harden knew what he was doing.

    I don’t know about not signing your own jersey though man, that was probably the only chance someone will ever have to meet an NBA player. Kind of a shame.

  17. Doc__Toboggan

    How the fuck y’all defend this dude? What a little bitch

  18. No-Zookeepergame7943

    Oh my god I wish Game of Zones was still around for this saga

  19. ZiOnIsNeXtLeBrOn

    James is like the guy on his last day where he is like Fuck Morey, Fuck Joel, Fuck Philly. Love you Maxey. Fuck everybody except the strippers.

  20. HustleWilson

    Harden prepping for the Marbury arc of his career

  21. HonkedOffJohn

    Mo Dog lmao. Those Chinese are indoctrinated by CCP.

    Fuck China

  22. TheMoorNextDoor

    His new agent must be going ham lmao

  23. EJohns1004

    It’s getting to the point to where the NBA needs to step in. This can’t be allowed to continue if this league is going to function.

  24. Anyone who has followed lpl in lol knows how vicious and hilarious their online fanbases can be

  25. F4STW4LKER

    “Harden, you are always be my MVP. I wrote a letter to you, can you receive it? Can I touch your beard?”

  26. fuckitiroastedyou

    There’s a thread about college or national jerseys being the safest bet to ask a player to sign, and someone mentions that KD will sign a Sonics jersey because he asked – in the comments they keep calling KD “Adu” – what does that mean?

    EDIT: Should mention this is after google translate has done its thing

  27. HashPat1

    no rings. just a lot of beard growth to shave over the years. your arm sweep foul call bs was called out – your career is over. nobody wants big tummy Harden. slow. poor defense. bad team attitude. you had a lot of special games – your attitude killed your career. glad u rich tho.

  28. maxrod889

    he better stop fuckin around before he ends up playing in china 😅😂😂

  29. NotoASlANHate

    Morey, a white man, giving opinions on Hong Kong situation. GTFO colonizer.

    Stand with kyrie, Kanye, Kwame, Kapernick, Harden, West.

  30. clocke6346

    Am I the only one that thinks refusing to sign a jersey just because you don’t like the team is a dick move? It’s not like the fan works for the Sixers or anything
