“For his troubles, Cuban will net around $2 billion, a robust profit on the $285 million he invested in 2000. He’ll somehow also retain full control over basketball operations, which is a little like flipping your house with the provision that you continue to occupy the master bedroom.
It’s difficult to imagine that control being totally immutable, considering Cuban no longer holds the Mavericks’ cards. (It does have some stickiness, though, and explains the discount Cuban took; Forbes’ most recent franchise valuations had pegged the Mavericks as worth $4.5 billion, but the valuation in the sale was set around $3.5 billion.)”

It's definitely weird, man.
I just continue to look forward to the day when we don't need to think or talk about Cuban at all, and will take any incremental steps toward that end I can get.
