Quoted: ?Cuban?s comment calls the question: What standards besides wealth qualify one to own an N.B.A. franchise?? said Linda S. Greene, a law professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. ?These teams may be privately held, but the ownership of one is a privilege and constitutes a public trust. Therefore, the N.B.A. has a duty to probe deeply both beliefs and actions to ensure that those who steward these unique community institutions are worthy of that trust.?
