Cuban blames George's Agent 

Post#1 » by oldeagle » Fri Feb 15, 2008 2:21 pm

"I feel bad for Devean George," Cuban said. "I really, really do. I think he got thrown under the bus by his agent. I think he's a great, great, great, great guy."

Not really. The block is as great as a block on Kobe Bryant. If we lose Devin in this trade, we would lose everything. Compete or rebuild, this trade makes no sense. I'd rather rebuild now.

Sorry but I have the feeling that this franchise will never win a championship. Portland is rising , Hornets are rising, and heck the Jazz are becoming a great team...
West is too loaded...

When the Mavericks win a championship, it wil be in spite of Cuban, not because of him.

Take that to the bank bruthas!
If we could just close games with Luka, Kyrie, Green, Maxi, and Wood that'd be great...

Kind of like Mack Brown and Texas.

I do think the mavs need a change. Cuban needs to shut up and let happen what needs or will happen.

Blame Cuban.

It's hilarious that the one time Cuban tries to make a move since Nellie left and look what has happened. It is a complete and utter disaster.

And he should ahve done this trade 2 years ago. That's the worst part of it.

Notice, we have Nat'l Champion Vince Young, not Tenn Titans Vince Young. Good choice!

This whole ordeal is the management's fault and no one else's. First they didn't tell Stack to keep it quiet. Then they didn't talk to George before the deal was out there.

You can't blame George for exercising his no trade clause either. He didn't ask to be flat out traded, he said either play me or move me. Avery came to his senses and started playing him. Why would he want to go to New Jersey to sit on the bench behind Jefferson and Carter? And he should in no way feel obligated to agree to it just because he is being pressured by our front office.
