Mark Cuban is one of the good things that has happened to the NBA.
Yes he is arrogant, and a jerk, but he bought a horrible team and produced a contender. He was also applauding Miami's effort after the game was over. The Mavs are now solid with Avery as coach. Avery is the type of guy that does not give up. They will be a force next year.

Unfortunately for Avery, there is a guard named D. Wade that is as composed and tough minded as any young guard I have ever seen. And he is a basketball player with a football body. The guy is amazing. A real asset to the NBA. Guys like Iverson should look back at their career and realize what it means to come to practice and be a model of composure for the TEAM. A little late now though.

The guy is a Godsend for Mr. Stern and he knows it.
