前火箭队总经理,现任费城76人队新任篮球运营总裁莫雷说,曾以为再也无法在自己喜欢
的NBA工作。一年多前,他因为在推特上发表撑港文章惹议,一度造成NBA赛事无法在中国
转播,损失数亿美元。时隔一年多,他在接受ESPN访问时表示,过去在商学院读书时认识
不少香港人,支持他们并非无知的决定,而是有意识地表达声援。

Philadelphia 76ers' Daryl Morey was worried Hong Kong tweet might end NBA
career
莫雷曾非常忧心香港推特事件会终结自己的NBA生涯
(以下节录)
What James did not know was that Morey had befriended a number of Hong Kong
residents while attending business school and had intimate knowledge of the
challenges they faced living in a semi-autonomous region. His decision to
tweet his support was neither rash nor uninformed, but a conscious effort to
express his solidarity for people he knew well.
LBJ不知道的是,莫雷在商学院的时候结交不少香港人,
也对半自治的香港所面对之议题有深度理解
他的决定并非冲动或无知,而是有意识的支持自己熟知的人们
"In the last 12 months, I had moments where I thought I might never work in
the NBA again, for reasons I was willing to go down for," Morey told ESPN
while discussing his new role with the 76ers. "But I love working, I love
what I do, and I didn't want that to happen."
过去一年来,我曾怀疑我将为了自己的坚持,而可能不能继续待在NBA
但是我爱工作,爱自己做的事情,不愿意发生那样的情况
Asked months later if he regrets his decision to support the protests in Hong
Kong, Morey paused for several seconds before responding, "I'm very
comfortable with what I did."
我对自己做过的事情非常坦然
"I was actually really, really worried about that," Morey said. He declined
to elaborate on the specific threats. "Luckily I had [access to] different
people who were assisting me with that and giving me advice on how to handle
it," he said. "Hopefully, I've been able to get where we have some level of
safety.
我当时真的非常非常忧虑
幸运的是我有不同的人在帮助我,给我处理问题的建议
希望我已经到了比较安全的状态
"But I was extremely concerned. You don't want the second-most powerful
government on Earth mad at you, if you can avoid it. In this case, I
couldn't."
我曾非常忧心
若有选择,你会不想要让世界第二强大的政府对你出手,但我没有选择
短评或心得:
某国又要开始抵制了吗,这次是76人?
刚刚稍微瞄一眼虎扑,好像没怎么报?是因为还没开季?
之后LBJ还会被问吗?
