'Bark in the Park' Raises Alzheimer's Awareness
Cuban: Amnesty Comment on Bryant Was Innocent 2/25/13

DALLAS - Mavericks owner Mark Cuban says he doesn't expect to hear from
the league over his suggestion that the Los Angeles Lakers could reduce their
salary cap tax by dumping Kobe Bryant through the amnesty clause.
Cuban said before Sunday's game against the Lakers that he made it clear
during a radio interview Friday that he was speaking hypothetically, and he was
just trying to use an example to explain new restrictions in the labor
agreement.
The Lakers called the remark inappropriate but didn't plan to pursue a
complaint.
Cuban has cited the labor deal as a key reason for not bringing back key
pieces of Dallas' 2011 championship team. He said the labor contract is
difficult to explain and "it's not like we're getting any help from the league."
