>Companies set up by Mark Cuban, now the Mavericks’ minority owner, have owned the properties since 2016. Cuban at one time considered using the property for a new arena for the team.
This deal gives a huge impression that Mark knows something that we don’t.

It’s obvious they’re gonna lobby for gambling and then build a new giant casino/arena plex in the heart of Dallas. So many goobers in r/nba had the brain dead take of “well I guess the Mavericks are moving to Vegas”

Mark Cuban is out here playing 4D Chess in 2030 while the rest of the world is celebrating 2024.
Everybody is expecting lobbying for gambling to *start*.
I think the lobbying is already **done**.
This is too much money to just be a gamble on a strong “if”, “maybe” or even “possibly”…
