Weeks before Morey controversy, Steve Kerr retweeted tweet about ‘Hong Kong rising’

Steve Kerr has been in the spotlight recently for what he won't say as much as what he will. The Golden State Warriors head coach has been particularly conscious of his words following Houston general manager Daryl Morey's since-deleted tweet supporting Hong Kong protesters kicked off an international controversy between the NBA and its partners in China. Without delay, China began suspending ties with the Rockets as the NBA tripped over itself trying to satisfy its foreign partners, domestic fans and revenue-hungry stakeholders.
