    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"My understanding from the rule book is when you catch the ball in the backcourt you have to be in the backcourt and catch it," Cuban said. "You can't be established in the frontcourt and then be jumping into the backcourt when you catch it. That's a backcourt violation at least in most high school leagues." </div>

    DWade caught it in the backcourt, you are allowed to catch it in the backcourt, he made sure he had his body in the backcourt therefore making it legal. Cuban is such a whiner, shut up and elt your team play the game. No one is listneing to you, or even cares abut your opinion anymore because it's so biased.

    Cuban is getting more annoying by the second. Hes like a baby whining for attention. And the Media gives it to him.

    He'e the only reason i am going for Miami, after talking his mess about our "muddy river" i have lost all respect for the mavs even though it is not the team. I would like for Avery to get a ring but with Cuban i hope Dallas goes down

    It was not a backcourt violation, Wade is allowed to touch the ball in the backcourt even though he was established in the front court. He jumped behind the halfcourt line and then touched the ball. It used to be illegal, but the NBA changed the rule a few seasons ago.

    i dont see the problem people settle down. its not like cuban was calling it a violation 100% without a doubt...he was merely saying he figured that was a violation. and it used to be...relax
