I’m still shocked he sold the team to one of Trump’s biggest backers. Adelson gave $100M to support him once again this year. He gave her the presidential medal of freedom in his first term.

Cuban was out in support of Kamala.

LMAO KEEP THINKING
THESE RICH PPL GIVE AF ABOUT POLITICAL ALLEGIANCE

I don't care what anybody says after Kidd admitted they tanked that last game two years back he was forced to sell the majority. Cuban got caught tanking twice Silver telling him to sell the majority of the team or they would make him sell the whole team makes sense.

What did he really think would happen? The news don't really care about anything other than turning a profit and they'll push him out completely, soon.

Who cares. That team is not winning shyt anytime soon. Cuban used to spend on contracts. That new ownership will probably start making cuts, in a year or two, to save money.

He said he didn't want to put the pressure of owning the team on his kids. Feels it wouldn't be fair to them.
Wow! Imagine a NBA franchise being handed down to you from your father. Even if you don't give two sh*ts about basketball or sports in general, you don't have to be a hands on Mark Cuban or Jerry Jones type, just hire a guy that'll do everything for you (president of basketball operations) and you kick back and chill. I believe the Angels owner Arte Moreno is going through the same thing as his kids don't want anything to do with the team. As a sports fan, it's unreal to even fathom this sort of thinking :why:
