This thread has taken a hilariously absurd path.
Never denied it whatsoever. Funny coming from you, thinking that comparing a rookie Blake Griffin to an old Tim Duncan has a lot of relevance to a Prime Kukoc vs. Prime Odom conversation.

thanks to gnsf providing more re ation to the forum. i rarely post here, but i dont know how you can deal with these disp s.
It ain't easy.
Clearly the Spurs are in his head. And Jason Terry's head. And Dirk's head. Etc, etc etc. If they gave out trophy's for whining the Mavs would be the friggin Lakers.

Pretty much recaps the thread.....
Excellent take. Couldn't have said it better myself!
There's a serious lack of reading comprehension in this thread. Cuban wasn't blaming the Spurs at all.
That being said, Bruno hit th ball out of the park with his post. Cuban overvalues his assets all the damn time and it would not surprise me that most people in the league hate him because he's a neverending windbag. Dude just needs to learn to STFU for awhile.
Blaming? No. Although his track record is pretty clear of never skipping an opportunity to a) say whatever pops into his head if there's a microphone nearby b) bag on the Spurs, c) blame others for any failure or d) all of the above.
Oh, look who's butthurt. Transference is funny.
Nothing new. Cuban just crying because the Spurs have 4 and he has nothing
He's obsessed with the Spurs organization
Did you just not bother to read the 2nd part of my post?

Part of it's exactly what I said earlier, but yes I read it. So ing what? It wasn't all that insightful or original, and as a result wasn't really worthy of a response. You want a cookie?
Welcome to butthurt, population you.

Yes, props to Bruno with a great point. Overvaluing is the first part. The second part is if his example were pointing to a "spurs pedigree" do you really think Presti and Blanks give a damn about what makes the Spurs better anymore? Or the fact they're keeping quality players away from Dallas other than to keep them out of the Conference? Anything to what Cuban's suggesting means their focus is still on the Spurs and not their own teams and that would be taking money out of their own pockets.
So how long were you on the ter last night brainstorming lines to use on Spurstalk? Because you really put a lot of thought into that one
I'm a 20-year die-hard SPURSfan, live in D/FW, listen to The Ticket, and heard Norm's interview with Cuban this morning. Phillip is right. It wasn't sour grapes or anything. He even refused to comment on labor/CBA issues for either the NBA or the NFL because he would get fined for it. If he refused to talk about the "controversial" issues, he certainly didn't view his statements on trades as controversial -- just the facts.
Fact: Spurs & Mavs are rivals, why would they trade with each other?
Fact: Certain teams/coaches have a pedigree (Cuban mentioned the coaching trees of Nellie and Pop), and those respective lineages would rather deal with each other first than other teams.
It's just a matter of relationship building -- that's what business is all about. Cuban said nothing very controversial, but it was pretty open and informative.
Cuban acts like a spoiled brat behind the bench, but when it comes to the business side of sports, technology trends, or entrepreneurship, I shut my mouth, listen, and try not to view it through my fiesta-colored glasses.
Did you bother to read the OP?
Ugh. That would take FOREVER. The easiest thing to do if you're not planning on saying anything pertinent is to just read the le of the thread and skip to the last page.
Cool. Someone who actually listened to the ing interview, instead of people just paraphrasing specific apsects to take it out of context, and other spurfans taking it and running with it
"cuban is whining
