00:00Mark Cuban sitting down WFAA, Mark, would you have traded Doncic and what's your relationship
00:21like with him now?
00:22I'm not going to go there.
00:23It's not, it doesn't even matter, you know, I mean, I, I saw you were at the game though
00:28in LA and I mean, that signified, I think you dapped up his, his dad and his dad, so
00:35there's got to, there's some sort of, well, there was a connection just because we traded,
00:38like I still talk to Steve Nash.
00:39I mean, I went through this before when Steve Nash left and then won two MVPs, right?
00:44The good news is that we went to the finals and won a championship.
00:49So I've been through something, but there wasn't social media back then, so it wasn't
00:52quite the same, but yeah, I mean, you're going to make mistakes.
00:58And you know, I think the biggest challenge that the Mavs have right now is there's nobody
01:04who's really outgoing to communicate and it's not so much what you do, it's how you communicate
01:10why you do what you do and that's their challenge without me in front.
01:14Do you think some of that is because they're, they're kind of new to this?
01:16I mean, they've been, I think it's just not their nature.
01:18And well, they've been also NBA owners for about a year and I mean, Nico's been GM for
01:24about a few years, but entirely, that's not a whole lot of experience.
01:28Do you feel like that's part of it?
01:29No, they're just not me, right?
01:31You can't expect them to be me where, you know, when Steve Nash left, I wrote a blog
01:34post explaining why, you know, and talking about all these things.
01:38I talked about, you know, how we traded for Luka, all these, that's what I did, you know,
01:43that was the way I connected to fans and that's the way I tried to build a connection with
01:47fans.
01:48They're just not me and that's not a bad thing.
01:50There's things they're going to do that are better than anything I can do in that regard
01:54but, you know, I still think it may take longer now, but it'll be okay.
