Billionaire NBA team owner Mark Cuban clashed with Megyn Kelly during a Monday interview on her podcast over questions related to the NBAs willingness to do business with China despite the countrys human rights abuses, telling her it is not the only one to engage in such violations.
Kelly began with a reference to the 2019 controversy inspired by Houston Rockets General Manager Daryl Morey, who wrote a message on Twitter in support of Hong Kong protesters. Fight for Freedom. Stand with Hong Kong, Morey wrote.
There was some guy who sent out one tweet, Kelly noted. All hell broke loose. The Chinese Basketball Association suspended all cooperation with the team. The Chinese state TV suspended airing of the games the NBA commissioner had to come out with his tail between his legs and said, We have great respect for China, and its history, its all regrettable. People freaked out in response to that
With his tail between his legs? Cuban said, cutting Kelly off. With his tail between his legs?! Megyn, why cant you just ask me a straight-up question? Every single topic weve tried to discuss look, you get to come into this interview prepared with your quotes.
This is your industry! Kelly protested.
Yeah, but Megyn, thats what Im talking about. I dont care what industry were talking about. Every single topic that youve brought up, theres been one pejorative aspect to it in terms of how you present the question, Cuban said. Tail between his legs,' he repeated with disgust.
The exchange continued briefly before Kelly asked why it was difficult for Cuban and the NBA to issue explicit condemnation.

If we are customers and we dont like the product we dont have to buy...fair enough!
Megyn Kelly says her life has not been the same since her fateful day of singling Trump out unfairly during the primary debates.
So, he is China’s little prison hoochie.
Gee I'm so sad for her.
If the customers don’t attend or watch NBA propaganda disguised as basketball games, I guess he may have to chip in to pay those salaries or have the NBA change over to the CCPBA.
Is Mark Cuban liberal? Or does he operate under something of a gag order, in which he and others in the NBA are compelled to parrot a party line?
Cuban is more Bushie than Rat. But they are both just as bad.
Well then, where did he get his money from?
“””Megyn Kelly says her life has not been the same since her fateful day of singling Trump out unfairly during the primary debates.””””
The lesson here is don’t mess with a guy who has brass balls the size of a Buick.
Mark Cuban loves to moralize. He is such a good person. He has no problem doing business with a genocidal regime. It is not just the Uyghers. It is also Tibetans and Mongolians. What they have done with Africans is special. All these millionaire ball players with their $500 tennis shoes have no problem with slavery.
Same is happening to Chris Wallace & Fox but they don't know it yet.
He should try to spend a day in Trump's shoes.
How can he preach at others about anyone’s life mattering when his business partner China doesn’t care about any lives at all?
Screw Cuban
“Same is happening to Chris Wallace & Fox...” I hope people are dropping FOX like flies, sooner rather than later.
It would probably be more family friendly to say:
Smoke Cuban! :)
Cuban founded Yahoo. That is where is money came from.
