It would be asinine to pay up $130MM for Brunson for that first year, just stupid money. Cuban might have a lot of money, but you still have to be responsible. And that a significant chunk of his net worth, which a lot of people have a hard time understanding that's not liquid...
All I can say is that the current NBA Champs are that stupid. If Cuban can't afford it, then sure. But it would be sad to think that the Mavs are destined to be a franchise where they might catch lightning in a bottle once in a while, but they are not really contenders year-to-year. But if that's the reality, then so be it.
