LeBron James says he's turning his focus from China to a championship

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- LeBron James said Tuesday he had not seen reports of protesters in Hong Kong trampling on his jerseys and even watching one burn following his comments about Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey's tweet that sparked turmoil and tension between China and the NBA.

A day after saying he believed Morey "wasn't educated" on the ramifications and impact that sending out a tweet in support of anti-government protesters in Hong Kong would have, James was asked whether he had a sense of how his own comments would be felt in Hong Kong among protesters.
