May 11, 200917 yr You can't call someone else a thug when you have Josh Howard on your team, enough said. I agree. I think that ends any type of discussion on the topic lol.
May 11, 200917 yr You can't call someone else a thug when you have Josh Howard on your team, enough said. 100% accurate and I doubt either would deny it. I don't know much about Howard but I know Martin has given back to his community but he is what he is.
May 11, 200917 yr Sounds like he'll have to answer to Kenyon at some point tonight... http://www.denverpost.com/nuggets/ci_12343996?source=rss
May 12, 200917 yr Sounds like he'll have to answer to Kenyon at some point tonight... http://www.denverpost.com/nuggets/ci_12343996?source=rss Don't see it ever happening. I imagine he will have extra tight security this evening. I can't blame him. :lol::lol:
May 12, 200917 yr This kind of thing is nothing new for Cuban :irked:. I think that most basically ignore the spoiled little rich boy but when he goes after a players mother then imo it crosses the line. Say what you want about a player but to go after a mans family, let alone his mother is about as classless and as coward as it gets . Again, typical out of this attention grabbing idiot. Untill the NBA (league) does something to this clown, and I don't mean fining him (money is no object to him) then imo it will never end. Maybe banning him from the arena/arena's for a certain amount of games or something :idunno:. At any rate Cuban is a pompass jerk and imo the best thing that could happen is to not put the camera on him at all (which is exactly what he wants), no interviews with him or report anything he says or does when it comes to junk like this.
May 12, 200917 yr Don't see it ever happening. I imagine he will have extra tight security this evening. I can't blame him. :lol::lol: I don't thin anything will happen now. I do think (and hope) that he has a one on one "talk":D at some point away from the cameras with Cuban, imo that would be a very short and one way conversation.:sssh::lol:
May 12, 200917 yr I believe his mom said you are acting like a thug, and in response he said, "So is your son". From what I have heard.:idunno:
May 12, 200917 yr I believe his mom said you are acting like a thug, and in response he said, "So is your son". From what I have heard.:idunno: Cuban told the Denver newspaper by e-mail that as he walked off the court after the Mavericks' Saturday night loss in Dallas, he saw Martin's mother, Lydia Moore, as a fan was yelling that the Nuggets were "thugs." "That includes your son," Cuban said to Moore, according to his e-mail to The Post.
May 12, 200917 yr I've always loved Cuban's passion for his team and his fans/players. Sounds like he crossed the line on this one but I'm not at all suprised. I'm sure there were a lot worse things said around the world on that day so I'm not to worried about it lol.
May 12, 200917 yr Apparently Cuban and Ms. Moore agree, what is the issue? I think another fan was yelling that the Nuggets were thugs, not Ms. Moore. Cuban then decided to get a dig in at her. Cuban is a prime example of an owner who ought to stay in his owner's box and enjoy the game. According to Cuban, a fan called the Nuggets "thugs" after Game 3 and he turned to Martin's mother, Lydia Moore, and said, "That includes your son." Martin's agent, Brian Dyke, said Cuban told Martin's mother "Your son is a punk." I hope that Martin gets a little one on one time with Cuban.
May 12, 200917 yr "Thug" is a code word for "mean/punk black guy." Always has been. We see it on this board. Its never about a white guy.
May 12, 200917 yr "Thug" is a code word for "mean/punk black guy." Always has been. We see it on this board. Its never about a white guy. In my life, I have referred to many white guys as 'thugs' or 'punks'. I don't read any racial meaning into it. The problem to me is that Cuban lacks a level of class you would hope a franchise owner would have.
