If anyone needs to hear it, look up “American national anthem” on youtube. Boom saved y’all hella time being mad. Before anyone gets mad remember bro OWNS THE TEAM 🤣 he has plenty of power to do what he wants

All teams should stop playing the anthem. It’s really not that important.

The national anthem should be forced on every american. We should play it before the work day or any other event otherwise you go to jail for unpatriotism, I dont care if you are a soldier who fought for our freedoms to not have things forced on us. It should be the law

Not playing the national anthem before a basketball game only further divides us As Americans

Texas, please handle this POS traitor to our Republic (peacefully). ESPN also needs to be reminded what country they are operating in

So everyone can kneel for the anthem and that’s okay for almost two seasons of football. America is about choice. Just like teachers and schools can’t really do that anymore. The hypocrisy in media is evidently obvious and moronic.

The national anthem never was something to bring people in this country together especially when since it was created during slavery and black people have never seen it as our national anthem

This is where limits get tested. Going this way is crossing a line that a good number of liberals, Dems, or heck even those that may be considered far left may be uncomfortable to cross. There is no way this will end well. Hopefully Cuban and all those involved will understand that.

I’m not from the USA so I dont really understand the political environment completely, but the NBA seems like it’s extremely liberal, like not really balanced at all
