There’s a lot going on with the Dallas Mavericks this week and none of it is good. From Sports Illustrated’s report on the team’s “toxic culture” and the ensuing chaos of those horrifying revelations to the whopping $600,000 fine from the NBA pertaining to owner Mark Cuban’s comments about tanking, all of it bad news.
It comes during a dead time for NBA coverage, which has resulted in some baffling prognostication from members of the media. Some suggest that the NBA will attempt to force Cuban to sell the team.
