Fisher to OKC

[tatermoog]

I didn't mind him getting his release from the Jazz.

I just never understood why he felt he had to play with another team that year. That was the moment where I realized it was shady. The man had enough money to sit out a season.

Why didn't OKC just re-sign him in the first place?

They had Eric Maynor and Reggie Jackson. If Maynor had not been injured and then traded, OKC would probably not have signed Fisher.

Cuban seems rather understanding

“Look, I understand, completely,” Cuban said Tuesday prior to the Mavs’ home game against Milwaukee. “From the time Derek was here to him signing with OKC, his kids are older, so they can deal with things better. So I understand him having more comfort in being away from them.”

Cuban's well-known for his calm demeanor.

Another good quote from the same link:

“Like I said, his kids are older now,” Cuban said. “It’s easier to fly in and out of Oklahoma City than it is to Dallas. I understand that. It’s just a decision a parent has to make.”

You gotta love Cuban. Snarky and sarcastic yeah but an awesome owner.

My respect for Cuban just went way up. I've now elevated him about 10 levels above Greg Miller.
Well, maybe not 10...probably about 100.

And I've never liked Cuban.
So I guess everyone knows how I feel about Greggy Boy.

Not BFFs any more?

So glad Cuban ripped Fisher. This needs to be all over ESPN.
