I think the nature of professional sports dictates that it's OK for a team to cut a player because you have to perform to be in the professional sport, and if you don't perform, you don't belong.
Fans understand this, especially because they want their teams to win, and they understand that you can't have poor performers on your team and win, or at least not win as much as they could.
