‘I hope Lakers suck forever’

Cuban tells L.A. radio station The Beast 980 that he hopes the team, which has a moderate rivalry with the Mavericks since Dallas swept the playoffs in 2011 and ended the Lakers’ title run, continue to stay bad:

As far as the Lakers, I think there are going to be a lot of teams that are going to be focusing and saying, ‘Look, I’ve got a ton of cap room, free agents A, B and C, why don’t you guys come together and come play for me?’ And L.A. has always been considered a destination, so maybe they feel there’s a valid strategy. You know me, Fred. Personally, I just hope they suck forever.
