I thought it silly at first, but it seems the move that Cuban is making could be the wisest. Dont try to re-sign any FA's and suck for a year, then go all in on signing the best players. I dont want to see a "Big 3" in Dallas either. The only one I'm interested in is DWill since I live in the same city he is from. been watching him since he was in high school.

Anyway, the NBA is screwed and the players just got even more control. may as well throw salaray caps out the window and let the players pick sides of playground games.

Benjamin Hochman, DP Nuggets writer, was on this morning with Cecil Lamey, and he said he is 31 years old, and to the best of his recollection, he can only think of 9 teams which have won it all in the NBA for the past 31 years, and stated that is what the NBA is trying to get away from - i.e. - just a handful of teams dominating year in and year out. Not sure if he is accurate in stating 9 teams only winning the title in 31 years, but if so, that is pretty sad.
