Mark Cuban pissed at Hornets Trade

DALLAS – Mavericks owner Mark Cuban isn’t too happy with the league-owned and funded New Orleans Hornets taking back salary and sending cash in today’s trade for Sacramento forward Carl Landry. That a franchise previously on such shaky financial ground that it needed an NBA bailout earlier this season actually increased its payroll greatly irritated Cuban.
“That’s just wrong. That’s just wrong. That’s just absolutely, positively wrong,’” an incredulous Cuban said before tonight’s Dallas-Utah game. “I’ll probably go against the grain from everybody else, but that is so far wrong that it’s not even close.
“There’s so few teams in the league that can afford to do that and yet we’re allowing a team that’s owned by the league to do that?”

Says the guy running the franchise that has over $200 million in debt.

He should ask the Texas Rangers how that worked out.

Someone needs to get that sand out of his vagina before it causes an infection.
Or possibly a fine by the league that will likely cover the Hornets' outlay to the Kings.

You'd think Cuban would be in a better mood considering today's news on DOMA

Cuban is right.

It's like when the Expos acquired Bartolo Colon and Cliff Floyd in 2002.

frick Mark Cuban. He's a quintessential liberal douchebag who doesn't appreciate the freedom given to him as an American. He is a 9-11 conspiracy theorist and a total dickwad.

Bet Cuban wasn't saying that same hypocrisy over the then league-owned Rangers, when beating out the Yanks for Cliff Lee's 2nd Half services..
Of whom he intended to buy.

I thought we were supposed to dump Anderson in that trade too. That would've made the numbers mo better.
I was surprised to see DA on the court last night.

In light of Mark Cuban's comments about the New Orleans Hornets, Bodog.com has posted odds on whether or not he will be fined. Currently, YES is 3/2 and NO is 1/2. Cuban was upset that the NBA allowed the league-owned Hornets to take on salary in their trade with the Sacramento Kings. "That's just wrong," Cuban said. "That's just wrong. That's just absolutely, positively wrong. I'll probably go against the grain from everybody else, but that is so far wrong that it's not even close. There's so few teams in the league that can afford to do that and yet we're allowing a team that's owned by the league to do that? I don't need to be competing economically with the league and myself."

Just make sure Carl stays injury free for his return to Houston next year
