What exactly can the league do to Cubano other than fine him?
NBA reviewing Game 5 postgame actions
DALLAS (AP) - The NBA said Monday it is reviewing the actions of Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and forward Dirk Nowitzki following the end of Game 5 of the NBA finals.
Upset over several calls that went against the Mavericks in the closing seconds of their 101-100 overtime loss to the Miami Heat on Sunday night, Cuban ran onto the court to vent at official Joe DeRosa, then stared down and screamed toward commissioner David Stern and a group of league officials, from the court, then the stands.
A league spokesman said Monday that NBA disciplinarian Stu Jackson wasn't at the game and hadn't reviewed what happened.
Even if any action is taken against Cuban, it may not be announced. Stern prefers to keep penalties against owners private. Penalties given to players are announced, and Nowitzki could be facing one for kicking the ball into the stands. Detroit's Richard Hamilton and Sacramento's Bonzi Wells were each fined $5,000 for throwing the ball off the court during games this season. Any penalty would be announced before Game 6, which is Tuesday night
What exactly can the league do to Cubano other than fine him?
not let him watch dallas play in person for game 6
and 9 other games
That would be an improvement.
haven't they done enough damage to Dallas? the nba.
They could force him to get a grown man's haircut
It's so cute how he curses just like Cuban.
Dirk has been fined $5000 for the kick. Nothing on Cuban yet, but we may never hear if there is a penalty handed down.
Haven't the Mavs shot themselves in the foot enough times to learn their lesson??? Seriously, do you think that repeatedly getting in trouble for this ridiculous and child-like behavior actually merits lenience??? Quite the opposite you in' idiot, think before you complain.
It's his approach they're not always fond of, which is why he's been fined more than $1.2 million since buying the team in January 2000. That includes a $200,000 tab this postseason.

humm fining him does not work
maybe something else would.....
Hey man...don't rip on the "Moe wig"...![]()
STFU you bitter kings fan who got owned by the Spurs. How is it feel to be fishing?
Yes, they should be more lenient on those they have already punished

cuban has a BIG MOUTH AND WILL TELL IT
I think they should restrict him from being there at the AAC for the game, or at least courtside. Tell him if he disobeys they'll start rewarding Miami with a technical free throw every 10 seconds until he leaves.
They just fined Dirk $5000 for the kicking the ball into the stands..
I hate king fans. They think they have a place here because they were punching bags for the spurs all those years.
Thank God. First time they've been consistent. Maybe that Avery talk helped them realize their faults.
They should wrap him up and muzzle him Hannibal Lecter style while allowing him to view the game from the sidelines. Oh how it would eat him up inside...
or maybe an electric dog collar?

Or maybe you hate them because you were their punching bag all those years. I believe the Spurs defeated the Kings for the first time in recent history.
