I listened to that Cuban interview on the plane yesterday, and it was cringey how non-committal he was to everything. For being such a brash, arrogant and opinionated guy, he sure can't seem to connect the dots on any of this. Cuban also dismissed every anonymous source Pablo has interviewed to help build the case for PTFOs conclusions, and made it seem as if they are lying or embellishing their knowledge.
I would have loved to see Pablo dig at Cuban more about the "when does the owner of a team learn about a 28m endorsement deal?" Line of questions. Marc deferred that duty to his President of BB Ops, and said he wouldn't be involved. At some point he would learn about it later in time, but well after it is executed. The problem with that explanation is the amount of money, $28m over 4 years is like shoe deal money.
How often do you, as an owner, see deals that big? How often are they no-show deals? How often do you see company stock given to a player as part of a deal? Would that kind of deal raise any red flags for you? If your alternate governor donated 2m to a business that was paying one of your players, would you be suspicious of their purposes?
Plenty of more questions to compare his supposedly clean operation with the dirty Clippers.
And how the hell does Cuban not seem to recall anything about the DeAndre Jordan deal? Just feels like he's lying and playing dumb to cover for daddy Balmer.
