Mark Cuban Tweets A Fascinating Question During Heat-Celtics Game

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban sent out a tweet during Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

On Monday evening, the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics are facing off in Massachusetts for Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals.   

The winner of the game will advance to the 2023 NBA Finals and face off against Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets (who swept the Los Angeles Lakers).

This is the third time in the previous four seasons that the Heat and Celtics have squared off in the Conference Finals (each team won once).

During Monday's game, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban sent out a tweet (with a question) that is going viral. 

Cuban tweeted: "Got a personal question for everyone watching heats vs celts right now. Who is watching on a pirated stream. I'm curious how prevalent it is."

Cuban is widely seen as one of the best (and most vocal) owners in pro sports. 

Since buying the team in 2000, the Mavs have been among the premier franchises in the league, and they won the 2011 NBA Championship over LeBron James and the Miami Heat.

That said, it is fascinating to see an NBA owner ask fans if they are watching a game on a pirated stream.

It's no surprise the tweet had over six million impressions and 16,000 likes in one hour.

Well you know, that doesn't apply to this game. But you know. You be you 😁

As for the Mavs, they had one of the most talented rosters in the league this season (with All-Stars Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic) but finished as the 11th seed in the Western Conference, so they missed the play-in tournament (and Playoffs).
