So did Jerry and Jon Daniels for the world series appearances as well.Cuban made a deal with the Devil for that championship. We are cursed
Daniels just worded his contract incorrectlySo did Jerry and Jon Daniels for the world series appearances as well.
It's all funny money with the cap going up... His signing would be huge for the team given its current state. Now we're looking at trying to tank to get a top 7 pick. I think Jordan could be a dominant offensive presence if given the opportunity.Oh well.
It's a bitch move by Jordan, but hopefully the Mavs will benefit down the road from not committing this money. 80 million for a center with no offensive game is not a smart investment when you don't have other pieces around to pick up the slack.
Jordan would be a great signing for Golden State, Cleveland, Miami, etc. But for Dallas? The only reason why any Mavs fan should even be pleased with that signing is because they finally signed a big FA, but of all the guys we could have signed over the years, he was at the bottom of my list.
No Mavs fan should lose sleep over this.

Yea, that's not gonna happen.
Dirk is no longer an important piece to a championship caliber team.He's not just better than Chandler. He's also younger and stays healthier.
Not saying we would be a contender with him next season. But if he's here long-term, then Parsons stays past next season and we are attractive for the next young FA talent next season. Without him, Parsons opts out, and we may not have a first rounder next season... That's two more wasted seasons. Dirk is gone by then... blow it up.
But I have my doubts that Cuban will be willing to do that until Dirk is retired. Like Jerry with AikmanDirk is no longer an important piece to a championship caliber team.
At this point, he'd be best suited to be a 6th man who could give you a 20 point night every now and again. I love Dirk and he's my favorite player all time behind MJ, but he's not a piece anymore and should be considered part of any equation for building a contender.
If the Jordan thing fails, it's time to blow up this average team now.....or whatever is left of it.
As it stands today, this isn't a good team. Add Jordan, and they're a 7/8 seed just as they've been the last 2 years.But I have my doubts that Cuban will be willing to do that until Dirk is retired. Like Jerry with Aikman
I agree with all of this... But I don't want to blow it up now. There's no guarantee that we can get a top 7 pick next season, I'd rather have a young core that's attractive to free agents without a first rounder, than one that has no core and no first rounder. Parsons, Jordan, Matthews and Dirk can be enough to get into the playoffs, give up our first to BOS next season when it doesn't hurt as bad. Then you have some pieces to attract free agents and you're not just hoping on Cuban selling playing here... That's clearly not working... we need talent here that other guys want to play with.Dirk is no longer an important piece to a championship caliber team.

Again, he's being a real bitch.Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
So far, Clippers able to keep everyone else out of house, including Cuban, agents. Everyone. They're in four-corners until midnight Eastern.
But....But you have Chandler the best recruiter in the NBA.Again, he's being a real bitch.
He promised the Mavs a meeting and now they're saying the Clippers aren't letting anyone in?
If Cuban has any self respect, he'll tell Jordan to go fuck himself and move on.
Fuck that guy. He isn't a superstar player that can change a franchise, so the Mavs shouldn't be chasing him like one.
