Mark Cuban discusses timeline of DeAndre Jordan situation, throws more shade at reporter

In an effort clear up the "nonsense" from ESPN reporter Chris Broussard, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban sent out yet another message to his fan base on Cyber Dust.

Cuban's words were passed along by Mike Fisher of 105.3 The Fan.

Dear Mavs fans,

After all the nonsense coming from an ESPN employee on Twitter, I thought I would provide the events of the day on Tuesday.

Through all of Monday we were texting back and forth discussing players available, the amount of cap room we had left. Who our staff liked. Who he liked. How excited he was.

Then on Tuesday the communications basically stopped and we started hearing rumblings from multiple people that something was up.

So I flew down to Houston and got a room at the Galleria, which is just a few minutes from his house. I had my driver take me to his house. It's inside a small gated community but the gate was wide open. So we drove in and I literally walked up to his door.

There was no one home. So I texted him saying that I was there. I know something is up. Let's talk. He texted me that he was on a date,

I told him to have fun. I wasn't in a rush, that I was happy to come by there and say hi or if he wanted to make the date fun, take them to Dallas for a night out.

He didn't respond.

After about 10 minutes I went back to the hotel. I wasn't going to sit in front of his house. I didn't think that was right.

When I got back to the hotel I texted him that I wasn't in front of his house. Have fun on his date and we will talk.

He hit me back immediately saying thanks. He knew I was in town. He knew I was close by. I knew something was up. I was getting the same reports everyone else was.

I also knew his agents were coming to town. It made sense that he would talk to them and worst case, even if he was having second thoughts the agent would be able to give me updates.

Like any big career move it's natural to have second thoughts. So while I was concerned, I still wasn't worried. So I went to bed.

There are a few things to unpack here.

First, Cuban's description of the timeline aligns with the reporting of Jordan's decision-making. Reports emerged Tuesday of Jordan's indecision, which obviously prompted Cuban to fly into Houston for an emergency visit. Cuban describes communication with Jordan being strong on Monday, but that faded as the week went on.

Second, Cuban says he went to Jordan's door. That conflicts with Broussard's reporting, which claims Cuban was driving around Dallas (later corrected to Houston) looking for Jordan's home. It's fairly easy to find where someone lives, especially considering Dan Fegan (Jordan's agent) is good friends with Cuban.

Third, Cuban offered to crash Jordan's date, which seems like a hilarious misstep. Perhaps the date was just a ruse to get out of seeing Cuban, but clearly Jordan did not want to be bothered.
