Mark Cuban Upset NBA Did Not Schedule Trip To White House For Mavericks

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is upset that the league did not include a trip that would allow the NBA champions to make a traditional visit to the White House in the NBA’s shortened season schedule, according to ESPN.

Traditionally the champion of the four major American sports will make a visit to meet the President at some point in the calendar year following their victory. Since the NBA did not schedule a game for Dallas in Washington this year, Cuban took the issue into his own hands.

"There's no point in calling (the league),” Cuban told ESPN. “It's bull---- by the league not to schedule it. I figured I'd do it myself since the league wasn't smart enough to figure it out. How can you be that stupid? All you've got to do is when you're putting in the scheduling software, say Dallas at Washington, yes. They managed to get Dallas and Miami and all the games set on certain days."
