Screengrab from LA Clippers’ Vine account.
NBA’s yearly offseason is usually filled with intrigue, and everything gets even more intriguing when Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban gets involved in any way possible.
It all started when Los Angeles Clipper DeAndre Jordan allegedly promised Cuban he would join the Texas franchise but hours before the deadline the big man out of Texas A&M decided he would stay in California after teammates held him hostage.
On the two team’s first meeting, things got testy as physical basketball mixed with broken promises, yet the tech guys of Staples Center found a way to cool things down a bit with a little scene on the Kiss Cam.
It wasn’t an ordinary Kiss Cam scenario—it was a split screen with Mavericks owner Cuban and Clippers owner Steve Ballmer with a heart-shaped border.
Ballmer tried to put his lips on a position on the Kiss Cam so Cuban can return it, it wasn’t awkward and was done in good fun.
