I'm a cord cutter and I loved being able to watch and/or record Mavs games on HULU. TBH, Cuban's comments seem pretty self serving to me and not very sensitive to a fan base that 1) may not live close enough to viably buy a season pass (even if they could afford it) and 2) can't attend the games even if they did have the tickets.
I would think Cuban would want as wide distribution as possible for Mav's games with the hometown broadcast team. Not count on a national network team to provide the positive coverage needed. I mean, if they are playing the LALs, LACs or HOUs, which team do you think is going to get the most airtime? I'll NEVER forget or forgive the Craig Sager behavior back in 2006, may he RIP. The national team certainly won't provide the behind-the-scenes news and information you get with your own team's reporters.
Hard to be a fan if you can't see the product.
