LA celebrated the Lakers championship with a spontaneous super spreader event 

 

I’m not a fan of the Lakers myself, but I get what the team means to a lot of people in LA. I know this year was special with them winning the the championship in honor of Kobe. I’m happy for them, but I wish Angelenos would have thought out their actions a little better.

To everyone's surprise, China state-owned television CCTV suddenly announced that it will resume NBA broadcasting. It will live streaming tomorrow's G5 between Lakers and Heat. Apparently some secret agreement has been reached between NBA committee and CCTV and it will save both side's poor viewership ratings this year.

The "secret agreement" is revealed. It's the resignation/firing of Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey who started the dispute. China CCTV commented "All price have to be paid and wish him good luck".

Sure. It's just a good timing and leverage not to shame either side.

Funny ... after 1 year and when nobody was talking about it anymore (at least in western countries), he finally felt the pressure and decided to step down. Great win for China!

Daryl Morey is going to become the new GM of the 76ers.

Well, Rockets are cleaning house. Now they need to get rid of Harden. This style of play won't win them the title no matter how many 3s he hits.
