With as much respect as I can say this?....
You're just wrong.
I constantly hear these complaints and yes I sometimes wish he would shut his yapper.... I don't agree with all of his politics... but none of that matters in the +/- scale of looking at who he is for us as an owner.
We owe so much love and respect to Cuban, and if you don't see that, then I just have to say you have a weird personal bias that isn't rooted in logic when it comes to the general consensus in the league and who respects him. He rubs some people wrong... that is true...
but overall? he has a great amount of respect for some of the things he has done in this league, and without him, the league would be a lot different. He changed how players are pampered and taken care of more by league owners with various perks, and even if he still rubs some guys wrong, other players and coaches and media alum respect him for that, and they see how well he treats Carlisle, Donnie, and Dirk. The loyalty is key.
He may not always make the best decisions, and I am not saying he isn't without fault... but he deserves our respect... and I would be willing to bet YOU and everyone who attacks him? would be sad to see him go, because if he ever sells this team? I would be willing to bet we would be in a worse position as a fanbase.
