It's really just up to Cuban right now. Mavs are the only team that can offer the fifth year, so they are in the driver's seat. We will see if Mark is a cheapskate or someone committed to building a championship team. This is actually a pretty interesting test to see his true colors. There seems to be no advantage from a salary cap point of view to not match any offer given to JB and add the fifth year. So, put up or shut up Mark. All that is on the line is your money.
