should have been fined and could not go to games
Straight from espn.com........
The NBA fined Mavericks owner Mark Cuban $200,000 for going onto the court in Game 1 of Dallas' series against the Spurs and criticizing league officials on his blog, ESPN's Jim Gray is reporting.
Cuban was fined $100,000 for going onto the court and another $100,000 for writing about how bad the officials are and how to improve playoff officiating on blogmaverick.com.
"The NBA knows all, does all, and far be it for me to question any of this." Cuban told Gray.
Cuban also said that he wrote the article before the playoffs and simply reposted it after Game 1.
Dallas lost 87-85 in Game 1 on Sunday, but rebounded Tuesday night with a 113-91 victory to even the series at one game apiece.

yeah but how much did Cuban pay the refs BEFORE game 2?
Well it does make me feel a tinsy bit better right now.
Money well spent, eh, Cubes?
then he would probably project his own image on the jumbotrons in the aac to let it be known he was there in spirit ducks. that would be downright scary!
Maybe that's why they did it. Screw them.
Refs suck!
So that's the price of a playoff win.
why do you guys talk bad about cuban for talking bad about the refs and complaining but you guys comnplain about them all the time. and during the game the spurs whine about every freaking call almost as bad as the pistons. notice i said almost.![]()
Yeah, Mark Cuban PAID for a win. It had nothing to do with your team's play at all. Poor offensive rebounding and an utter lack of hustle had NOTHING to do with it.
Bunch of pussies.
oh no he lost 0.1% of his wealth
WHAT WILL HE DO NOW? HE CANT BUY THE FERRARI HE WANTED!!!
There is no need to call Cuban that name even though he paid for a win.
eh, shut the up and go your sister.
Cuban goes above and beyond being an asshole. How many other owners have ever run out onto the court during a game?
If u really have to ask why hate Cuban. U've never watched a Mav game.
yeah but there is a difference between complaining about the refs during the game(which teams have the right to do) and criticizing the refs through the media or sending in tapes or messages to the league showing where refs messed up.
Pop didnt even hence at the fact that the refs were horrible last night during his press conference but you could tell he was PISSED at the refs especially Javie, just the spurs have class and let their game speak for themselves
Spurs fans whine as much as Cuban does about the refs, what is the difference?
Correct![]()
That's weak. Maybe 100g for the coming on the court maybe, but not for that blog.
You guys have read that blog, and you know it isn't worth a 100g fine.
*digging in pocket*
*throwing penny in trash can*
I think I just lost more of my net worth than Cuban did...LOL
He's the quintessential jock sniffer. No doubt he sits behind the bench grabbing all the ass he can...
why doesn't everybody stop whining about one thing or another and just watch a great series....
As fans we have the right to complain about Refs, Cuban is a NBA team owner and since he is part of the organization cant openly through the media complain about officiating, trust me I did a huge English project on this topic
We have no affiliation to the team
