Money has absolutely nothing to do with it.

LeBron is getting a Max contract regardless of where he signs, so Cuban's money means squat.

And by going to a market like New York, he's probably guaranteeing himself even more endorsement money, if that's even possible.

[SkinsandTerps]

I think Phoenix actually has some cap space. That would be more likely.

way to come across as sounding like an Eagles fan.....

BTW, Spurs have 4 Championships....The Spurs are the Cowboys, The Rockets are the Giants/Skins.....and the Mavs are the hapless Eagles.

Oh and believe me, Spurs, Suns, Mavs, Knicks, Nets, Pistons, and Cavs fans all care that the Spurs have 4 rings. You are lying if you say it doesnt upset you that our little podunk city has the best basketball in Texas........

GO SPURS GO

You guys got lucky that David Robinson got hurt one year and it allowed you to get Tim Duncan.

And you won one of those championships during a shortened season.

Mavs don't have the cap space to sign LBJ

 

[Hostile]

I assume LeBron James is the best basketball player in the NBA by now. I have no idea if he is or not. I think I saw where he won the MVP. Has he won it before? Again, I don't know. Maybe Kobe is considered the best. Again, don't know.

Unless Cleveland has won a title with him (I don't think they have) I wouldn't go anywhere else to try and make a franchise into a power. He can do that by staying where he is and winning in his home state.

If he is intent on moving because of titles it seems like he needs to go to Boston or Los Angeles.

If he is looking for marketability Los Angeles, New York or Chicago might be preferable. I remember one time reading that he was a Bulls fan and wears 23 because of Michael Jordan.

The only reason to go to Dallas is because he is a Cowboys fan.

:laugh1: :laugh1: :laugh1: :laugh1: :laugh1:

we won the lottery twice. may have been luck, but we won it. btw, I wouldnt call having David get hurt a lucky thing. Sean was also hurt that year. Actually my favorite part of that year was having Dominique Wilkins play for us. He is one of my all-time favorites. He looked damn good in Silver and Black.

last time i checked, every team in the league played during the shortened season.....we won. we also won 3 more times in complete seasons.

the facts are this. Aside from the Lakers, the Spurs are the only other team to make the playoffs at least 30 times since the mid 70s. The Spurs have only missed the postseason 4 times, and have only had 2 losing seasons. If not for the debacle of 1978, when they choked away a 3-1 series lead to Washington, the Spurs could be either the only team, or one of very few teams to have won a Championship while a part of either conference. They were in the East when they first entered the NBA.

The have 4 Championships in 4 appearances. Only the Celtics, Lakers, and Bulls have more Championships (all large market teams). They have the 2nd best all-time winning % in NBA history....Lakers being 1st, Celtics being 3rd. We are also, the only ABA team to win an NBA Championship....Nets 0-2, Pacers 0-1, Nuggets 0-0.

So considering that in the mid 70s, we were just a podunk city in south central Texas....with no real media market to speak off....we have done pretty well for ourselves. We are still a small media market. We are still unattractive to potential free agents. We still have to live by a tight budget.....we definitely do not have the resources the Lakers, Celtics, Bulls, and Knicks have.....yet look at us.....one of the top 3-4 franchises in the history of the league.....

Lucky, good, blessed....all 3.....and damn proud of it.

One of the Mavs main problems is they never value good role players.

They refuse to keep a couple of good hustle and defensive players on the roster for long periods of time.

Pretty much every championship team has a guy or two on the roster that does the dirty work; the Mavs will rarely keep guys like that on the roster.

Mark Cuban invented Yahoo!? News to me.

In 1995, Cuban and fellow Indiana University alumnus Todd Wagner started Audionet, combining their mutual interest in college basketball and webcasting. With a single server and an ISDN line[22], Audionet became Broadcast.com in 1998. By 1999, Broadcast.com had grown to 330 employees and $13.5 million in revenue for the second quarter.[23] In 1999, during the Dot-com boom, Broadcast.com was acquired by Yahoo! for $5.9 billion in Yahoo! stock.

one problem is they don't a Big man that is worth his weight - then they trade for Jason Kidd you gotta be kidding me

if they got one in a trade for Dirk - I think Cuban could swing a deal for Amare Stoudemire and

then get out an buy LeBron

The Mavs would've been a lot better at the 2 guard spot had they kept Raja Bell early in his career.

He played to much defense for Nelly though.
