Hm. Do you suppose the NBA has figured out that offending Americans is not good for their pocketbook? Still will not watch them or the NFL, but at least it looks like this is a step in the right (not left...pun intended) direction.

Cuban should play the Chinese National Anthem and the he’ll be back in good graces with the leagie office.

Well shut my mouth! I'm shocked. About time somebody said no to the insanity.

“...Americans is not good for their pocketbook?”

Rule of thumb, always follow the money trail.

It’s become a joke, they may as well play it on a kazoo.

Probably start with the black national anthem whatever the F that supposedly is.

NBA probably did this so players could continue protesting. No anthem = no opportunity to trash the country.

No. The National Anthem was RACIST when Trump was in office, Now that we “have been United” by Joe Biden, it is patriotic.

Dallas Mavericks??? Isn’t that the team that loses nearly all their games and is owned by Commie Cuban ain’t it. I haven’t followed the NBA since Magic and Larry hung up their sneakers.

I watch Japanese and Korean baseball on the internet. Forget about American pro sports.

Maybe he’d be more comfortable with the Internationale?

It’s less offensive to not play the anthem and not watch a bunch of ghetto thugs kneel in disrespect. At least that’s why I figure Cuban did it. Trying to get back some of the fans that these criminal players offended.

I personally think they should just play circus music at pro games from now on. It just seems more fitting.

Too late. I started boycotting when they started taking a knee.

They’ll try to split the baby just like the NFL did in the Super Bowl - Rah, rah the flag and then put out type of wokeness too.
