Kuban will forgive $ 600, 000 for his big mouth

The National Basketball Association fined Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Kuban with $ 600, 000 because of his words during an interview that his team would be better off losing their matches by the end of the season. In an interview a few days ago, Kuban said he told some of the players in the team that `the best option for us is now to lose our matches, ` so he wanted to demonstrate how honest he is to his competitors. The League, especially since being led by new commissioner Adam Silver, tries in any way to cause the teams not to lose their matches from footballcapper on purpose. For this reason, Silver introduced a change in the lottery system, defining the order in which the teams choose the draft. The imposed fine of $ 600, 000 is the largest that Kuban has ever received. In 2002 Dallas`s eccentric owner was fined $ 500, 000 for critical comments to former Judge Director Ed Rush. Until now, Kuban has been fined by the League with a total of over $ 2 million, with almost the whole amount due to comments by judges. Dallas has a record of 18 wins and 40 losses since the start of the season and is one of seven teams in the league with 18 or 19 victories since the start of the season.
