I'm sure Cuban will make sure he doesn't loose any money.

I understand that the Mavs paid $25,000 to have the suspension rescinded. Of course, to Mr. Cuban, that amount of money isn't quite what it would be to one of us . . .

He's got more change than that on his dresser.

What's Black and White ???
Does Maverick #34 have a white jersey with a black undershirt? Man, I really don't understand NBA rules.

I deal with teenage kids, a few coaches that are pulled out of English class to coach basketball, teams working with a budget of a few thousand dollars, and the NFHS makes me enforce that undershirts must match the jersey, when in same cases, the uniforms are mismatched over a period of several years, and the team looks like a real motley crew, even with matched undershirts and jerseys.

The NBA has tightly enforced rules about almost everything, players making millions, team worth billions, uniforms that are about uniform as you can get, a thriving business in selling replica uniforms, and these guys get to mismatch undershirts and jerseys?

Go figure?

Any deviation from standard uniforms must be pre-approved by the league office. For instance certain high-end Under Armour and other brand tshirts are only available in black.

Let's talk about the play in question. Very tough to tell if it was on it's way down, IMO, though it was right at the apex. Not quite conclusive enough to say goaltending for sure, and I don't blame the officials for ruling legal.

Mark is usually tight with his money.

True on Shark Tank. He usually just sits back and comments on why the entrepreneurs should, or shouldn't, accept other sharks' offers, and then he says, "I'm out".
