Tweet of the Night goes to Chris Kaman, who sarcastically mimicked Bill Simmons’ tweet from earlier today – which already got some notable heat from Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban – and finished the thought by calling him a douche. If you are a well-known individual, you may want to think twice before bad-mouthing the Mavericks on twitter because Cuban and Kaman will apparently team up to insult you back, and they will insult you back hard. Simmons probably did not expect to hear back in this manner when he initially tweeted his thought.
Kaman, of course, is the new starting (presumably) center of the Mavericks and is among many new players the team has acquired since missing out on Deron Williams in free agency. Along with Kaman, they have also acquired Elton Brand, Darren Collison, Dahntay Jones and O.J. Mayo for a very different look for the start of next season. Simmons may not like the pairing of Kaman and Brand, but the Mavericks have clearly added more talent and could be contenders again in the upcoming season.
Agreed, David. Unless you’ve got three superstars on your team, chance are people aren’t picking you to win the championship.
Contenders to make the playoffs, not contenders to win a title
