This is all very confusing and it's difficulty to determine how this will affect the Mavericks approach to roster building.
I am concerned that it is a net negative as we now have ownership responsibility spread between Cuban and the Adelson family and thus less accountability.
I think we'll know more this coming summer though based upon their willingness to pay the luxury tax. I don't expect we'll go near the 2nd apron but it will be very disturbing if they make decisions to stay under the luxury tax again.
The worst part in this is that not only does Cuban retain operational control but we can't even hope that he'll sell the team to lose thar control. He now has sold the team but still controls it. It's like a weird, very specific nightmare.
