This seems like the opinion of the Mavs and other NBA teams. Apparently Cuban asked the opponents and not a single one objected. Lot of other coaches and owners supporting Cuban.
However, if you look at the Mavs on FB...whew boy. Cuban must hate America even though he doesn't make a Slovenian, a Latvian, a German, a Serbian, an Australian, and a Canadian stand silently during the anthem even when there is no audience for the games.
Twitter it's 50/50 between "it's long overdue" and "Cuban is a commie bastard"
