Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban never has been shy about voicing complaints with officiating — and now he's letting loose with those opinions via Twitter.
Cuban was upset Friday night when Mavericks guard Antoine Wright and Nuggets swingman J.R. Smith got into each other's faces near the Denver bench. Shortly after the game, Cuban posted, "how do they not call a tech on JR Smith for coming off the bench to taunt our player on the ground?"
He also wrote, "scary part of that play: Same crew chief from game in Denver where they missed call — last play of the game & 1st JRSmith/Wright issue."
Cuban was fined $25,000 after a confrontation with Smith earlier this season. In that January incident, Cuban walked onto the court and yelled at Smith because he was upset about an elbow Smith threw at Wright.
