Only basketball players work for the Mavericks, so this is a quality burn.

So, less qualified individuals.

Why not hire a less qualified Asian woman to play for the Mavs?

If they can dribble and shoot, they are simply less qualified.

You know DEI is absurd. Your mindset just won’t let you accept that fact.

In your hiring history do you only hire the most qualified individual?

Wikipedia article about DEI...


quote:

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (usually abbreviated DEI) refers to organizational frameworks which seek to promote "the fair treatment and full participation of all people", particularly groups "who have historically been underrepresented or subject to discrimination" on the basis of identity or disability.



It clearly states the goal is to give more consideration to minority groups.

My theory with Cuban is he doesn't believe any of this crap & is doing it just to stay competitive as now part owner of the Mavs because he has to toe the company/media line. This is a guy who is a brilliant business mind who built companies & cashed in at the exact right time to become a billionaire. I think it is all for publicity & show.

Out of those in the applicant pool, yes

This gonna be an attempted gotcha where you act like experience isn't part of being qualified or some other bullshite?

In your hiring history, do you hire less qualified individuals based solely on their race in order to fill your quotas?

This shite is hilarious.

Same reason you may hire outside of the most qualified. Potential, cost, gut feel.

So then what Cuban said was contradictory because hiring the most qualified from a minority group does not mean hiring the most qualified person overall.

So when will we see an Asian chick suit up for the Mavs?

So, why hasn’t he done it?

Why has he only tried to hire the most qualified players?

Seems hypocritical?

Did you even pay attention to what Mark said. "find the employees that will put your business in the best possible position to succeed."
