FWIW, I had season tickets for the last couple of seasons at Reunion and at AAC until I moved to PHX, coincidentally the same year Nash went back for his Suns 2.0 stint. So Iāve given Cuban plenty of my hard earned money, probably a much larger percentage of my income than Cuban ever āsacrificedā for his hobby. I donāt think you understand the vast wealth of being a billionaire and that āsacrificingā $10 million here or there is like a nice night out for you and me.
I lost interest in the NBA about 15 years ago and only check the standings every now and then to see how the Rockets are doing since I now live in Houston and have a little curiosity in how theyāre doing, but Iāve lived here six years and have been to a total of one game and that was as a guest of a vendor.
Cuban cares about money. Thatās it. Youāve bought into his persona and I get it since I had, too. He chose one of the worst families in the country to sell a controlling interest in the team to so he really doesnāt care as much about the team as youāve convinced yourself he does. He got his championship trophy 15 years ago or whenever it was and decided that after another finals run it was a good time to cash out on a very lucrative investment. Trust me, he sacrificed nothing financially for the Mavs. The Mavs made him more money than you and I will ever have in our lifetimes.
