<p>If you are a basketball lover then you have to know the name <a title="Mark Cuban" href="http://blogmaverick.com/" target="_blank">Mark Cuban</a>.  It is a name that resonates with the <a title="NBA" href="http://www.nba.com" target="_blank">NBA</a> as he is one of the most recognized franchise owners, someone who cares about the well being of his players and organization, an extremely dynamic individual, and all around great business man.</p>
<p>Although he has led the <a title="Dallas Mavericks " href="http://www.nba.com/mavericks/index_main.html" target="_blank">Dallas Mavericks </a> to become a dominating team from one that was lacking before he was the owner, the deal almost did not come to fruition.  He almost bought another professional sports team in a completely different sport.  Watch this brief video from good friend <a title="Brian Cuban" href="http://www.briancuban.com/" target="_blank">Brian Cuban</a> (brother of Mark) below to learn the behind the scenes scoop on what really went down.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object width="425" height="344" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vdFz8Q10hp8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed width="425" height="344" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vdFz8Q10hp8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" allowFullScreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" /></object></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">What are your thoughts about this deal?  Do you think Mark should have bought the other franchise, or do you think Dallas is lucky to have such a great owner?  Be sure to follw both <a title="Mark Cuban on Twitter" href="http://www.twitter.com/mcuban" target="_blank">Mark</a> and <a title="Brian Cuban on Twitter" href="http://www.twitter.com/bcuban" target="_blank">Brian</a> on Twitter as they always have interesting things to say.</p>
