Don´t expect critical journalism from those guys. They would immediately lose their access if they would start to call out Cuban and the Mavs front office.
Well, I don't want to jump on the "we hate Skin" bandwagon or anything, but I think you're even burying the lead a bit with the above, which I think applies to a lot of journalists.
In Skin's case he is literally employed by Cuban. I doubt his unique "third guy in the booth" telecast gig pays as much as his radio gig, but I'd bet my bottom dollar he really likes having it. Gotta be a dream come true for a lifelong Mavs fan, right?
