| Three NBA Teams Boycott Trump Hotels |
| 2016-11-17 |
| [Breitbart] The Milwaukee Bucks, Memphis Grizzlies, and Dallas Mavericks refuse to stay at any of the hotels owned or licensed by Donald J. Trump. The boycott by the three NBA team’s sends a clear message that the franchise ownerships do not support the soon to be 45th president of the United States. ESPN reports that Bucks co-owner Marc Lasry, whose daughter served on Rahm Emanuel’s congressional staff and son worked in the White House under Valerie Jarrett, and the Mavericks owner Mark Cuban both endorsed beleaguered Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton during the presidential campaign. Shark Tank creator Cuban said during the run-up to the election that there was "no bigger jagoff in the world" than Donald Trump and criticized the New York billionaire for failing to reveal his tax returns. Con't. |

| #10 I used to watch back when the mailman still delivered. Now it is but an advertising medium who makes a king out of a dope-smoking high school dropout. Much of it has to do with the personality-forward soccerization and the rest has to do with the coverage; particularly the chink in the armor incident solidified my opinion of the bobbleheads. |

| #9 Never heard of the Memphis Grizzlies, thought the Milwaukee Bucks had disbanded decades ago, and only know of the Dallas Mavericks because of their media whore/ jackass owner. Yep the NBA is really relevant. |

| #8 They didn't learn anything from Colin Kaepernick about how such things might affect their TV ratings? Oh well, there's a Motel 6 down the street... |

| #6 Petty. If they were staying at them already, there was good reason. If they were not, piss off then. Whatever. Guess the staff doesn't have to deal with spoiled brats in a 6'8" frame drinking, doping, and fornicating hussies. |

| #5 Maybe the NBA can simply move out of the USA altogether. |

| #4 Boycotting Trump hotels? Let em stay in Motel 6 for a no-frills experience. I think they got soap. More idiocy from the NBA. They are rapidly becoming irrelevant entertainment as is with Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Madonna and most Hollywood movies. Who needs them? |
