The NBA fined Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban $50,000 for divulging some details of a recent NBA Board of Governors meeting to a reporter, according to ESPN's Tim MacMahon.

MacMahon reported Cuban specifically discussed the proposal to allow coaches to challenge certain calls, which was eventually unanimously approved on a one-year trial for the the 2019-20 season.

When reached for comment about the fine by MacMahon, Cuban took the situation in stride. "I appreciate the irony of your reporting on a fine that someone should, but won't, get fined for leaking to you," he said.

This isn't the first time the league levied a fine against Cuban, and it's far from the biggest financial hit he has received.

Mark Cuban pays 50k fines with the bills he uses for toilet paper.

Mark Cuban is a self-promoter with political ambitions. Unfortunately for Mavericks fans, he hasn't done much to improve the team since they last won an NBA Championship.

I don't follow the Mavs, but I would assume a lot of their fans were placated for awhile after they beat Miami in 2011.

The Mavericks were a laughingstock when I was a kid. Derek Harper and Roy Tarpley, then the 3 divas Kidd, Jackson, and Mashburn. Weren't they all fighting over Toni Braxton?

Or maybe I was just so happy to see the Miami dream team lose it was just me :noidea:

Are you angry because I said nobody cares about your Mavs?

Sorry I hurt your feelings.

Don't know why his feelings would be hurt. He said that Cuban hasn't done anything to improve the team since they won their title.

So clearly, Cuban doesn't care about them either.
