David West, Andre Iguodala defend Draymond Green's comments on the term "owner"

After that Mark Cuban criticized Draymond Green's Instagram comments on the word "owner", two of his teammates came to his defense.

"I understand both sides," Andre Iguodala told ESPN. "I think Mark Cuban has the right to defend himself because he has a majority stake in an NBA team. But he's done a great job of carrying that position with integrity, with respect, with equality to everyone who's involved with his organization. So, I understand because he's removed himself so far from the other incident that owners have gotten themselves in trouble with references to American historical events. So, I understand that he has to defend himself, but at the same time, he's not able to understand what it's like to be an African-American and certain terms being thrown around and how we feel about them."

"Cuban, I guess he's a little sensitive about that comment," David West told ESPN. "I don't think it's nothing wrong with the idea that people [should] make it clear that you don't own the player, you don't own the individual people. You own the enterprise."
