Mark Cuban

Prospective NBA tankers beware: Commissioner Adam Silver is watching. Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban was recently fined $600,000 for pro-tanking comments. But the league, and Silver, didn’t stop there. A memo was sent to all 30 teams shortly thereafter, according to USA Today‘s Sam Amick, the contents of which left little to the imagination about where [...]

Dirk Nowitzki and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban do not see eye to eye on the subject of tanking. To be fair, Cuban has never been an open proponent of bottoming out either. That is, until this season. His Mavericks are contending for one of the three worst records in the NBA, and he told [...]

The Dallas Mavericks are unafraid to eat into this summer’s salary-cap space ahead of the Feb. 8 deadline. And no, this isn’t mere speculation. It comes from owner Mark Cuban himself. From the Dallas Morning News‘ Eddie Sefko: “I would say we are looking to use our cap space actively,” Cuban said Monday. “We will take [...]

Count Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban among those who want the NBA to eliminate the existence of conferences. Though, to be fair, it sounds like he’d settle for his Mavericks moving into the East. As he told ESPN’s broadcast during Dallas’ summer league bout with the Phoenix Suns on Sunday, per ESPN.com’s Tim MacMahon: “We’re [...]

Tony Romo, now the former quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, suited up as an honorary member for the Dallas Mavericks when they played the Denver Nuggets Tuesday night.

With his Dallas Mavericks eliminated from playoff contention , Mark Cuban is ready for the offseason to get here. So that his team can get a new point guard.

Sneed: [tweet https://twitter.com/EarlKSneed/status/849438777244356608] [tweet https://twitter.com/EarlKSneed/status/849438514479591425] The Mavericks already have some interesting names to monitor at point guard.

Mark Cuban has never been one to bite his tongue, so why should he start now? For a while now, there has been bad blood between he and the Lakers brass. Those ill feelings apparently continue now that Magic Johnson and Rob Pelinka are now the new President of Basketball Operations an General Manger respectively. [...]

Mark Cuban is back to belittling Russell Westbrook. Maybe. The Dallas Mavericks owner said the point guard wasn’t a superstar last May, and now, apparently, he doesn’t believe Westbrook is in the mix for league MVP, per ESPN.com’s Tim MacMahon: [tweet https://twitter.com/espn_macmahon/status/838544941915631617] If Cuban’s sentiment is that Westbrook isn’t as valuable as James Harden and [...]

Wesley Matthews’ name has been lightly bandied about the NBA’s trade rumor mill, but suitors for the three-and-D wing shouldn’t hold their breath for the Dallas Mavericks to deal him. Not according to Mavericks owner Mark Cuban at least, per ESPN.com’s Tim MacMahon: [tweet https://twitter.com/espn_macmahon/status/823255735366778882] [tweet https://twitter.com/espn_macmahon/status/823263549657124867] This isn’t too surprising a stance from the [...]

Mark Cuban is known as being one of the most successful, outspoken and interesting entrepreneurs in the world. He is also the passionate and very present owner of the Dallas Mavericks and very much a fabric of the NBA for the past 16 years or so. Being such a massive success in business and as [...]
