Cuban goes Crazy

Look. I like Mark Cuban. I like his spirit and his energy. But his behavior sometimes can be a little, well, out of control. Clearly Saturday afternoon was one of those times. He reacted poorly to the buzzer beater that Carmelo Anthony hit to put the Nuggets up 3-0 in the series. Cuban didn’t get the call he wanted on the court. Life is like that sometimes. We don’t always get the calls that go our way. We get passed up for a job or a promotion, we get bad news at the Doctor or we don’t get the house we made an offer on or we lose someone very dear to us. It’s often how we react to those bad calls in our own lives that build character and integrity. Carmelo stepped up with the game on the line. He could have grumbled about the umpteen billion fouls that were called on Saturday and more than a few that weren’t. But he didn’t. It’s how he adjusted to the adversity that put him into position to make a shot that will define his career. Funny how life works that way.
