Mark Cuban and Lil Wayne creating a subplot of their own during the playoffs was not on any fan?s bingo card. Their verbal jousts are no less than intellectual than the debate between Michel Foucault and Noam Chomsky. It has been stimulating to witness this disagreement between two peers. This tiff started over Lil Wayne being an admirer of Phoenix Suns? Chris Paul. Wayne attended the 7 tie between the Suns and Cuban?s Mavericks. The Suns were eviscerated in that game. Wayne sat with a shocked look on his face, thinking why he did he have front seats just to see another Arizona team embarrass themselves.
