On ESPN 103.3 Dallas, Cuban said the following:
The Lakers were not amused and have filed a complaint with the league. Fines to follow because we all know you can't say anything about a team the league protects.If you look at their payroll, even if Dwight (Howard) comes back, you’ve got to ask the question: Should they amnesty Kobe?
Mark said what he said because the Lakers are going to be in salary cap hell next season when Kobe is scheduled to make $30 million a year. The true impact comes when the luxury tax is added at 2-1, meaning Kobe true cost is going to be a staggering $90 million.
Amnesty would save the team $60 million in 2013. It's none of Cuban's business but I will still smile knowing the Lakers will be on the hook.
