Cuban was asked if that(Game 5) was DAL's worst lost ever. Duh! To no one's surprise he answered sarcastically that his worst loss was in the pee-wee league then cussed out the reporter. That was classic TV IMO. Something needs to be done about airhead reporters asking questions like that.

Reporters are notorious for asking "ambush" questions.
Mark Cuban is living proof that no amount of $ can buy class.

No, he wasn't justified. I'm sick of Cuban. After the Mavs defeated the Suns in the Western Conference Finals, Cuban was holding up the trophy and talking to the press like he was the star player...just hand the trophy to Dirk or Avery Johnson and quit taking all the credit Cuban! Now he's whining about the refs again, and he's really detracting from the great play that has been put out by all the players during the playoffs. The Finals should be centered around great players like D-Wade, Shaq, and Dirk, not a stupid owner like Mark Cuban.

Im not taking the side of the reporter but he was just trying to find out how Cuban felt after the game. In Cubans defense the call on Wade was a terriable call which lost the game for the Mavs and now they will have to try and win two at home. After a game like that anyone will be on the edge and any reporter could have been the one to get him mad.

The fact of the matter is that when youre being asked a question by the media you dont evade the question by being sarcastic. Thats just crass and impolite. but for those of you who enjoy the complaining of the Mavs organization and their billionaire "Im a 5 yr old" owner, then you might enjoy the idiocy that Cuban provides. Really though, get a grip Cuban. You do not own the world and whether you know it or not people most certainly do not like you. Especially Me.

the squaddies blew a 9-factor lead interior the final minutes. it is so user-friendly as that. Come on, Mark Cuban won't be able to have "bribed" the refs. perchance he "bribed" the squaddies' Stephen Jackson to back be sarcastic pertaining to to the calls so as that he could be despatched out of the game? Or if he did "bribe" the refs, it easily wasn't with money. He basically promised the refs and the NBA that he will act like a sturdy quiet proprietor and that we will see much less of him on television. And the refs have been so grateful that possibly it confirmed interior the way they officiated the game. although. Golden State ought to have closed it out.

COME ON.......Mark Cuban brings this Shiiiit on himself.... DUMBAZZ went on Letterman already planning the PARADE in Dallas after Game #2. Mark Cuban makes LAB RATS look INTELLIGENT. Come on, he is STRAIGHT COMEDY and for as long as I live, I will not forget the Letterman act and the BEAT down, MIAMI put on his GIANT EGO. IF I were a reporter, I would ask "MARK, ANY PLANS TO DO LETTERMAN?" and "HOW MUCH $$$$$ DID YOU WASTE ON THOSE TSHIRTS, HATS and INVITATIONS?".... CLASSIC and I APPLAUDE the reporter for making him again, show his LACK of BRAIN MATTER inside his skull.

I think these reporters deliberately ask him stupid questions knowing that hes going to tee off on them.
That reporter deserved what he got
