 I don't watch the "hit" show Dancing with the Stars.  I have a thing for reality shows, that thing is an off button.  I know that Mark Cuban is participating in this show thanks to the endless promos on television and the non-stop emails I receive from the Mavericks promoting his appearances and his "vote for me" campaign.  I'm waiting on the Mavericks to email me a release to announce a trade for Kobe Bryant instead.  It's not often a superstar of Kobe's level becomes available.  The Mavericks should do whatever it takes to pair Kobe with Dirk and make a true run at a title.  Would Josh Howard, Jason Terry, and Devin Harris entice the Lakers to pull the trigger?  Don't know, but it's a starting point.
