re: Why does Cuban seem to keep coming up empty on landing the big fish FA?

Just my guesses:
Dallas isn't as good a city as Miami, NYC, LA, etc.
Dirk is the star in Dallas, but he's getting old and isn't part of that team USA vibe that most of these big fish FAs belong to. (LBJ, Kobe, Durant, CP3, etc.)
Some people might look at Cuban in the same light as Jerry Jones, Dan Snyder, etc. (Loud mouth who spends money, but doesn't actually listen to people who know what they are talking about.)

I'd say this is a big one.
Most of the US stars grew up playing with and against each other in the AAU, college, Team USA, etc., and their life's ambition seems to be to end up on the same team together.
Not only does Dirk not fit that, he's also on his last legs. If someone wanted to join a guy on his last legs, they'd sign with Miami to play with Wade.
