I get it.
I think back to Cuban's dismantling of the championship team. I went from forum "good guy" to forum "dark side" for years because I would bring up Cuban's crime any time I got annoyed at how the Mavs were doing. If I was the same guy from those days, now, I'd most likely be posting about Nico and the ownership all the time!
Fortunately for everyone, I don't have as much time to be here these days, and Dirk isn't on the team, which kept me locked in after the post championship disaster.
I think the only thing that would get my interest up again would be a sale of the team, firing Nico, starting a rebuild (if we somehow had competent ownership and GM). If our two injured old stars come back and put a playoff run together, I'd probably be a little interested, but that seems unlikely to me.
Really, I mostly pop in every once in a while these days to see what my old pals are up to.
But we had soooo much powder, and it was bone dry.
