Nope. But this is Cuban's first go-around in 20+ years without the luxury of having a Nelson in the front office. Nellie and Donnie were well-respected and had connections around the league that Cuban couldn't dream of having, no matter how involved he tried to be over the years. Add RC to that (head of the NBA Coaches Association). Now that they're gone, Cuban will have to surround himself with any former players/staff who can vouch for him and give him credibility in those circles.
