Why is this in quotes in your title? "The Rush Limbaugh of the NBA" It's not in the article.

I like Mark. Everyone knows he is a trash talker. Not much to see here.

He must be scared of the Magic / Pelinka combo loll

But its just Cuban hating on the Lakers in a playful way, nothing serious.

“I hope they fail miserably. I hope they fail horrifically,” Cuban told Mark Medina of the L.A. Daily News. “I hope Magic Johnson and Rob Pelinka go down as the worst GM/President combination in the history of GM/President combinations.”

And the Lakers wish you all the success in the world too, Mark!

Bingo. Rush famously said he hoped a certain other exec failed.

Uhh... Rush Limbaugh wanted Obama to fail because he knew his policies would destroy the country and didn't want to see that happen. I highly doubt Cuban wants to see the Lakers succeed... That would be the opposite of what Limbaugh said.

Rush Limbaugh? Wow. Dramatic much?

Way too sensitive.

Plus, I love Mark Cuban. Wouldn't surprise me at all to see him front for Prez one day actually.

Of course he hopes they fail. He's a competitive guy and they're his rivals.

Mark Cuban is a douche. But a likable douche. He is dedicated owner, albeit a very cocky one. I don't believe he has any ill will towards Magic or Pelinka, why would he? Not much to see here. Other than Mark being Mark.
