Two of professional sports most emotional owners Mavericks Mark Cuban and Clippers owner Steve Ballmer met and reportedly cleared the air after the free agent frenzy for Clippers center DeAndre Jordan.
The extent of the meeting between Ballmer and Cuban was not reported, but it could have been the two businessmen making sure theirs no hard feelings.

Now that the dust has settled on the DeAndre Jordan sweepstakes it’s good to see Mark Cuban not having hard feelings after Ballmer and Cuban met.
Ballmer clearly wants to stay on good terms with the other owners especially being one of the newest owners in the league and Cuban being one of the guys on your side.
If one of the owners thinks Ballmer does not do good business could tarnish his reputation as an owner or possibly could make teams less eager to deal with him.
I’m glad the two sorted everything out, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Mark Cuban is still bitter about it considering the Mavericks don’t have many options to replace Tyson Chandler or DeAndre Jordan.
Even if it’s good for both owners to stay on good terms it just shows the caliber of how professional the two are, which is one of the many reasons why they’ve been so successful in what they’ve done.
