Dirk Nowitzki Has the Refs' Backs

4
Vote

Dirk Nowitzki is starting to lose his patience with billionaire-owner Mark Cuban. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2506302


"The game starts and ve's alvready yelling at [the officials]," Nowitzki was quoted as saying. "Ve needs to vearn vow to conjol vimself a little better. If somebody's in vour ear constantly. ... I'd be [ticked] off if I vere an official."

"Ve can't lose our temper all the time on the court or off the court, and I think hve's got to vearn that, too. Ve's got to improve in that area and not vell at the officials the vhole game."


The newspapers also reported that Nowitzki, Michael Finley and Steve Nash had asked Cuban in the past about watching games from a suite, rather than from his usual seat near the Mavericks' bench.


Dirk has a message for Cuban:


"Vark, vou've vot vo vontrol vourself! Vor Vhrist's vake, vontrol vourself! Ve vannot vin a vhampionvhip vif vou vonstantly vry vike a vittle virl! Veesh!"

Larry Brown and Joe Glass aren't giving up on their paper chase in New York http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2503905. Brown has filed a grievance against the Knicks and has asked David Stern (same is true for the Knicks) to play arbitrator in the fiasco.


Eddie Griffin got saucy back in March http://www.yaysports.com/nba/ when he crashed his SUV into another car while watching a porn DVD in his car. Here's the video http://wcco.com/video/?id=18021@wcco.dayport.com of the hilarious event.

Dirk don't have any right, asking his boss to tone it down. Cuban owns the team. I'd do the same thing if i though the officiating sucked.

As a player, he has no right to say that the behavior of his boss is distracting and unnerving? I definitely have to disagree. Cuban's job isn't to complain, it is to facilitate his players in the ways that are most likely to allow them to win. If his behavior is detrimental to the team, he should stop. Cuban needs to do what's best for his team, not what's best for Cuban and his ego.
