    I wonder if Cuban has ever bothered to question why teams don't have Mavericks pedigrees? It's because nobody wants to try and replicate his "system".

    There may be some truth to the idea that players who have been in Dallas are tainted. Cuban is certainly a big enough taint.

    The Brewer signing was met with a collective YAWN from Galloway and company on the same station yesterday. They know what the guy is. An average to below average player.
    Pretty much what Bruce Bowen was. A very average to below average player, who had one skillset (man-to-man defense) that happened to benefit his team greatly.

    That's pretty much what Brewer brings to the Mavs, filling a void at SF that they have (strong wing-defender, youth, athleticism). No one is saying he will benefit the Mavs like Bowen did for the Spurs, but to dismiss the pickup as being a *yawn* could end up being extremely incorrect.

    If the Mavericks had better management, maybe there would be a number of teams with a "Mavericks" pedigree. Instead, Markie Mark is all alone with no one there to do him a solid.

    By the way, how is it that OKC (run by Presti) traded with Dallas two years ago and the Mavericks ended up with Roddy B?

    I wish Cuban would shut his mouth for about six months straight because most of what comes out is self serving nonsense.

    Pretty much all he is saying is that relationships with teams/FO members can heavily affect how the trade market operates. If it wasn't for a relationship with Jerry West, there would have been a different NBA champion the past two seasons.
    Pip, it's obvious that certain teams are not going to deal with each other (division/playoff rivals). Cuban is, not so subtly, implying that the Spurs have a hand in other teams not dealing with the Mavs because of this "pedigree" when there are perfectly sane, logical and sound business reasons not to.

    Cuban is once again showing his big, red, swollen baboon ass.

    That was Galloway and his crew with that take. Not me. I wish he signed here but Dallas often will have trade exceptions and cap room because of the bad and/or overpriced contracts they can trade.

    what else is new, spurfans talking out of their ass, just because Cuban states the truth, he is "asshurt". he said it on a ing local radio station, not on ESPN or anything like that, trying to complain to the world.

    for all the hoopla about these players we have to keep in mind that

    1) bibby is old and can not defend.

    2) brewer is one dimensional

    3) curry is a fat slob

    4) murphy is injury prone

    now can they all help their teams..of course they can...but will they be difference makers? highly unlikely. when the spurs played the t-wolves this year i can't recall ever saying "wow..corey brewer is killing us ! "

    i said that about love and beasley but i don't even recall brewer being out there to tell you the truth.

    Sounds to me like you reflect the same sentiments, likely one of the stupid s who were ready to suck Brewers if he came to the spurs, but since hes a Mavs, hes not that good.

    Ferry's fired lol mo williams, thunder got PERKINS and was considered the steal of the deadline, so i don't think cubes was offered something better. Why would NOH trade within their own division? That's why im assuming its phoenix.

    He cited one particular situation where he offered up a trade package to a specific team, a team with a Spurs pedigree, for a specific player - only to have his trade proposal denied. He went on to claim that later, that same team settled for, what he considered to be, an inferior package from another team.
    While it makes few doubts that there are privilege connections between some franchise, I question how Cuban value his own players. He overrated players like Beaubois or Kidd. At the end, maybe Cuban thought his trade package was better while, in reality, it wasn't.

    And Cuban would have better connections with other teams if he stopped to about everything.

    The Mavs arent getting Brewer to go out there and put up points and be some massive difference maker on a nightly basis. They want him to hustle and chip in some defense when the team needs it most. Especially if Shawn Marion gets plagued with foul trouble, considering he is their only long wing defender they have right now.

    It gives them depth in an area they needed depth badly.

    There are teams with a friendly connection to the Mavs. Raptors, Bobcats, Nets...

    I didnt know Ferry was gone, but its not shocking.

    I don't recall Cuban saying that this was an issue that happened during this years trade market. It could have been something from the past, I have no idea. He didn't give any real details.

    I don't get why everyone is bashing Cuban. He didn't say anything out of the ordinary.

    Like it has been stated many times in this thread, rival teams don't deal with each other. The Spurs have a lot of their protege's spread out over the NBA in other front offices, so it's not a huge surprising that some of them may not want to work with Cuban.

    I'm sure the Spurs would have a hard time trying to trade with the Lakers.

    The reason for me disliking Cuban is that I live in DFW, and the hot air NEVER stops. Just shut up and get your team out of the first round a little more often.

    A yankee blowhard insulting my hometown at every opportunity gives me very little reason for sympathy or empathy.
