10:28 am PT – As expected, Mark Cuban replied to Ted Cruz – and he was excited!
“I can say Black Lives Matter. I can say there is systemic racism in this country,” Cuban Twitter wrote to Cruz … “I can say there is a pandemic that you have done little to finish.”
“I can say that I am interested first and then in this country and if you think I will not criticize China and what they do in terms of American citizens, look at this:
“But I’ve never been involved in ANY foreign country’s internal policies. We have too much to do here.”
In the end, this shot … “And why @tedcruz are you so proud to stand up and tell the truth to the Chinese, but you don’t have the ability to resist and tell the truth to @realdonaldtrump?”
Well this is crazy …
Mark Cuban is Sen. Ted Cruz they are calling each other on everything from the NBA’s management of the anthem protests to China … but the focus seems to be on who has the biggest balls.
It all started when a Texas radio host tweeted to the Dallas Mavericks owner that if any of his players knelt during the national anthem when the season resumes next week, they will no longer support the team.
The Cuban replied: “Hi” … adding “The national anthem police in this country is 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 starting work.”
It was then that Ted Cruz intervened … saying: “Really ??!? NBA is telling everyone who is going to the flag, who honor our policemen and our veterans, to” piss off “? In Texas, no less? Good luck with that. “
Cruz didn’t tag Cuban in his tweet – and Cuban called him about it … saying, “For some @tedcruz balls. Talk to me. It’s my tweet.”
For once, you have @tedcruz balls. Speak to me. It’s my tweet. https://t.co/QGza2qWoRR

This is when Cruz responded with another shot of balls!
“Speaking of balls, tell us what you think of China. I’ll wait.”
Obviously, Cruz refers to the serious problems of the NBA with China in 2019, after GM Rockets in Houston Daryl Morey tweeted support for protesters in Hong Kong.
China essentially he blackballed the NBA besides the tweet – and the league is said to be still trying to smooth out its relationship with the country.
So, Cruz decided it was there that he would focus his attack on Cubans on Monday morning.
Still no response from @mcuban
Let’s try it simpler. Mark, tough guy, can you say “Hong Kong for free”?
Can your players put it on their shirts?
Can you condemn the CCP’s concentration camps with 1 million Uyghurs?
Can you say NOTHING other than “Chairman Mao is beautiful and wise”? https://t.co/0XpLRaFSw2

“Let’s try it simpler. Mark, tough guy, can you say” Free Hong Kong “? Can your players put it on their shirts? Can you condemn the CCP’s concentration camps with 1 million Uyghurs? Can you say SOMETHING different than” President Mao is beautiful and wise “?”
There is still nothing Cuban – but I guess you could say that the ball is in its field ????
