Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban recently stated that the moves the Los Angeles Lakers and the Brooklyn Nets made this off season will not make them championship teams.  Yesterday as Cuban spoke to The Sporting News he shared the same thoughts about the Lakers.


"The Lakers have done this before," Cuban said. "Remember Gary Payton, Karl Malone and Kobe and Shaq were all together, and it didn't work....It takes great chemistry, like [Dallas] coach [Rick Carlisle] alluded to, it takes guys wanting to be there — I don't know if all their guys want to be there — it's going to be interesting....Look, [the Lakers are] going to be a great team, but I remember when we made our run. We weren't supposed to win any series. The Lakers were defending champs when we swept them and they had everybody back."
