I doubt Kyrie would be a Mav without Cuban buying in. Still his team.

You see a lot of this from owners these days, trying to be "rock stars". Instead of being more discrete about their wealth and power.

Pat Croce and Mark Cuban were doing this stuff decades ago, and it was actually refreshing back then. To have an owner act like another crazy fan. Now its a cliché.

The mavericks were nba Siberia before Cuban bought the team. But I agree his schtick has gotten old. As has his constant starphuc’ing with the stupid KP trade and now the Kyrie stupidity and tanking just to spite the Knicks for signing Brunson when he had every opportunity to pay him to stay

I'm pretty sure they were tanking to make sure they do everything to keep that pick, that's the important part.

With a landfills worth of XBOXES as the hardware. Throw in a few Xunes for the Soundsystem.
