Cuban wants the world to know that the league-owned Hornets, with NBA commissioner David Stern calling the shots as de-facto owner, screwed up in making that trade.

Chris Paul, Dallas Mavericks, David Stern, Los Angeles Clippers, mark cuban, mavs, NBA, NBA Commissioner, New Orleans Hornets, owner DALLAS (CBSSPORTS.COM) ? The Los Angeles Clippers added Chris Paul and became an instant contender; the New Orleans Hornets traded away Chris Paul and have the worst record in the Western Conference, by far.

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban wants the world to know that the league-owned Hornets, with NBA commissioner David Stern calling the shots as de-facto owner, screwed up in making that trade.

?I don?t think it was about the Lakers, per se,? Cuban said before the game. ?I think it was just the way they did the deal, which was ridiculous. I don?t think it was about which team. I think it was the fact that, even with the Clippers, we just went through this whole (collective bargaining agreement) and said the incumbent team still has the advantage and then the team the league owns (wimps) out. And look how it?s worked out for them.
