Minority partners in the Mavericks basketball team sue Mark Cuban

Minority partners in the Dallas Mavericks basketball (Hillwood Investment Properties, Ross Perot Jr., etc) have sued majority owner Mark Cuban, alleging that he spent too much money on the team, among other items.

Cuban responded to this idiocy and lawsuit by using a photo of the team winning the 2011 NBA Championship (see above).

Of Texas billionaires, basketball and such

I've got the ball, says Mark Cuban

We don't write about Ross Perot, Jr. here too much. But as readers know, we do post often about that crazy-guy-owner of the one-and-out Dallas Mavericks, Mark Cuban.

Well know it seems as if Ross Perot's previous ownership of the Mavs (pre-Cuban) entitles him to throw spitballs at Mark Cuban. (Mr. Perot has retained a small minority ownership in the Dallas basketball team through his Hillwood Investment Properties III Ltd. company).

Ross is claiming the Dallas NBA team is close to financial insolvency. Cuban is quoted as saying the "Mavs are just fine."

We know the NBA has not been doing well financially as a league in recent years, however we doubt the Dallas Mavericks are on the brink of financial ruin.

We also doubt we will be following this Texas billionaire shoot-out in the near future. But, you can.
