Title: ESPN investigation finds coaches at NBA China academies complained of player abu
Post by: Bronx on July 30, 2020, 06:53:55 AM
Have you noticed the silence from the democrat muslim congresswomen and congressmen on the "police state in western China where more than a million Uighur Muslims are now held in barbed-wire camps".

I wonder why......?

I don't know how long ESPN will keep this article up when the communist NBA Führer Adam Silver and Chairman LeBron James have a sit down with ESPN.

ESPN investigation finds coaches at NBA China academies complained of player abuse, lack of schooling

American coaches at three NBA training academies in China told league officials their Chinese partners were physically abusing young players and failing to provide schooling, even though commissioner Adam Silver had said that education would be central to the program, according to multiple sources with direct knowledge of the complaints.

The NBA ran into myriad problems by opening one of the academies in Xinjiang, a police state in western China where more than a million Uighur Muslims are now held in barbed-wire camps. American coaches were frequently harassed and surveilled in Xinjiang, the sources said. One American coach was detained three times without cause; he and others were unable to obtain housing because of their status as foreigners.

A former league employee compared the atmosphere when he worked in Xinjiang to "World War II Germany."

NBA officials asked current and former employees not to speak with ESPN for this story. In an email to one former coach, a public relations official added: "Please don't mention that you have been advised by the NBA not to respond."

The NBA brought in elite coaches and athletic trainers with experience in the G League and Division I basketball to work at the academies. One former coach described watching a Chinese coach fire a ball into a young player's face at point-blank range and then "kick him in the gut."

"Imagine you have a kid who's 13, 14 years old, and you've got a grown coach who is 40 years old hitting your kid," the coach said. "We're part of that. The NBA is part of that."

Hey Bronx, when you run across articles like this, ones where we know the left will bury it, change the link, obscure it's location, and google hides it on the 1000th page?

Go ahead and post it in it's entirety in the library. We've seen this way too many times, where the left disappears articles they don't like. :smile:
