Oh God, Mark Cuban's being a jackass again
Oh God, Mark Cuban's being a jackass again
Mark Cuban sued the guy on the left for rockin' out I love Mark Cuban. Seriously, he brought my second all-time favorite sports franchise out of the utter doldrums of its respective league and made it into a prenniel winner, a contender. This fact makes it easier to swallow his dancing, haircuts, tight shirts and erratic behavior. Then he goes off and sues former coach Don Nelson for ...

    That reminds me, I'm suing my friend for beating at Rock, Paper, Scissors.

    He knows too much.

    I really hope that this spurious lawsuit just motivates Nellie to come back so he can beat the Mavs in the playoffs again.

    Mark Cuban was once new, exciting and good for the NBA...now he is just another old owner getting his hip replaced.  He got rid of Nellie and Steve Nash. How has that worked out for you Mark?

So, How’d Your Team Do in the NBA Draft?
Empty the Bench — ... The Mavs didn’t have a first-round pick, but their enigmatic owner did his best to keep the team in the headlines. They did nicely in the second round with their first pick of the draft, however, taking 6-11 power forward Nick Fazekas from Nevada. He’s a bit of a plodder, but has one of the sweetest strokes from the floor of any big man in the draft, and could be a solid backup for Dirk in a year or so. A few Europeans were taken late (Renaldas Seibutis and Milovan Rakovic) that won’t be in the NBA anytime soon. ...

SimonOnSports — ... 2. Mark Cuban - Note to Mark Cuban you are a loser. I don't think there is such a thing as "inside" information in basketball and I really don't think you have a legit claim when you are attempting to sue Don Nelson for using said "inside" information to dispatch of your Mavericks. Perhaps you shouldn't have fired the man that built your entire team. ...

Mark Cuban Is An Idiot
Hail Mary Jane — ... is larger doesn't mean that they should just be shut out. I have a better solution.  How about Mark makes his little blacklist himself and shuts up.  ESPN makes a blacklist of NBA teams that aren't going to win a championship anytime in the next decade and includes the Mavs right at the top of the list.  Everyone else lives happily ever after, continuing to ignore the insignificant, whiny team owner who likes to point the finger, ALL THE TIME. Stop being so annoying Mark.  Please.  No one cares what you have to say. No ...
