And my point is that you don't understand how these issues work well enough to comment on this. It has nothing to do with how much money he has, or whether he's an idiot. You are trying to impose a notion of common sense ("Cuban is not an idiot, therefore I'm confident of X and Y") onto issues that aren't nearly as intuitive or sensible as you might think.

Unless you have extensive experience dealing with entertainment contracts or contract law generally, you really can't comment credibly to any degree on the dynamics here. And if you do have that experience, I'm fairly concerned about the accuracy of what you just said.

Anyway, not a big deal. I'm grinding a bit of an axe here, so I apologize for that.
