Then go whine to the NYCLU - even they'll tell you that you have no case.
There is no "freedom of speech" in the United States. The concept of the 1st Amendment is simple - the Federal Government (and, later, state governments) cannot enact any laws banning certain forms of speech, unless such laws meet the
Potter test.
What a private organization (in this case the NBA) chooses to do in no way shape or form comes under 1st Amendment protections.
