Did Shark Tank Cost the Mavs Deron Williams?

|

When Rick Carlisle, Donnie Nelson, and Michael Finley were in New York wooing Deron Williams, Mark Cuban was in California, taping Shark Tank. Maybe not a great move. ESPN is reporting that Williams would have liked to ask Cuban some questions:

“I think [Cuban] would have been able to answer a lot of the questions me and my agent have for him that really didn’t get answered that day pertaining to the future. And I think if he was there he would have been able to answer those questions a little bit better. It maybe would have helped me.”

I have a hard time believing that Williams couldn’t get an answer to any question he had. I mean, at least any question that had to do with basketball and the Mavericks. If, like, he wanted to know why an all-powerful, loving God would allow suffering, well, that’s different.
