No grapevine needed but I will ask. I think Cuban blowing up the championship team was a big red flag for a lot of players that want a ring. He also made it painfully obvious he was down with the new reduced spending under the new CBA before it had become palatable to the players. His personality probably turns other people off too.
Good points!! Makes sense!! Also, If memory serves, he came off as a bit hypocritical when the Lakers tried to get CP3!! He was one of the main one's (along with Dan Gilbert) that cried and bitched about it, then he tried to do the same damn thing!!
