Wth?? “Where it went over the line is when they held up the [Trump] sign,” - So what, is that like holding up a swastika or something? Sorry bub, you best get used to seeing “T R U M P” as he is your new president.

The story is from a fake news site so I doubt there was anything to it.

I guess it’s now “sticks and stones may break my bones, but hold up a Trump sign, and I’m going to be scarred for life”

The tradition of the student section turning its back on the opposing team is a longstanding one. The only thing different is the Trump sign.

It is clearly racist that a basketball team is predominantly black - blatant discrimination against Asians and Caucasians.

Where are the Japanese in the NBA?

This is the civil rights struggle of 2017!

I assume it was to psych out the opposing team. It’s done all the time.

Apparently now, “President Trump” is some offensive racist thing. They could have held up “loser” signs, or “chokers”, but can’t use racist stuff like the name of the new president.

in what some are calling a racially motivated display

Well then, if 'some' are calling it a racially motivated display, then of course it must be.

After all, whatever 'some' say, do, or think must be the only permissible, correct, absolute truth.

Wait, wut?

It’s definitely not racism if you turn your back on a group of black teenagers, it’s foolhardy.

If the black players had turned their backs on the white team, they would have been saluted as heroes.
