Why was Cuban calling out Cruz to begin with? And is Cruz still waiting?

The fact that Ted just checkmated Cuban.

He can't speak out about China because that's the only market the NBA cares about.

Cuban has been "shaming" people on twitter the past day or two for saying they are upset about Anthem kneelers.

Basically telling them to frick off about it and kneeling for the anthem is super great.

Not a Cruz fan at all but Cuban deserves that

Cuban’s point is that Ted didn’t actually reply to his tweet, he took a screenshot of it and tweeted his response. By doing that, Mark might not actually see it, so he’s saying Ted didn’t have the balls to actually argue with him. Basically the twitter version of “say it to my face.”

Cuban said
quote:

The National Anthem Police in this country are out of control. If you want to complain, complain to your boss and ask why they don't play the National Anthem every day before you start work.


And Cuban also told some Dallas Radio guy “bye” when he said

quote:

I am so ready to be be in on this year's #Mavericks home stretch: so much promise, so much personality. But the minute one player kneels during the anthem, I am OUT. Surely @mcuban can lead the way for #Mavs, #NBA  to do whatever gesture they wish without insulting the nation.

From the tweet thread, appears some local Dallas radio host said he was ready for the Mavs home stretch but if players kneeled for the anthem, he was out. Cuban quoted and replied to that tweet with "bye". Cruz quoted Cuban's tweet and said the NBA was telling fans who stand for the flag and honor the country to piss off, in Texas of all places.

Can’t stand Rafael. He is just a puppet and looks like Q from Star Trek.

Kneeling on hardwood seems painful

Yeah, it's hard for people of low intelligence to relate to Cruz.

Cruz won't let Cuban off the mat now.

@tedcruz

Still no answer from @mcuban

Let’s try simpler. Mark, tough guy, can you say “Free Hong Kong”?

Can your players put that on their jerseys?

Can you condemn the CCP’s concentration camps w/ 1 million Uyghurs?

Can you say ANYTHING other than “Chairman Mao is beautiful & wise”?

I don't like Ted Cruz (I suppose I'm low intelligence), but grabbing my popcorn awaiting Cuban's response to that. Well played.
