Of course, Cuban was pushing that. I am surprised we did not sniff that out sooner. It makes total sense for Cuban to have no idea what he had in Brunson until it was way too late only to be suckered into Christian Wood. Just makes total sense. For a guy who is really smart and has been around the NBA for a long time and sits courtside, he sure doesn't appear to be very good at talent evaluation.
We do not want Cuban being the decision maker. He should not be crafting trades and evaluating talent and setting the direction of the franchise in general. I do like him in an oversight role of sorts, to stop the absurd stuff, in the short term until we get an expert filling the GM seat.
