Mavericks owner Mark Cuban recently went on SiriusXM NBA Radio with hosts Justin Termine and Eddie Johnson to discuss the NBA offseason and the Mavericks' future. See the full video of the interview below. Here are some highlights that have been edited for clarity:

On the Mavericks not getting overly aggressive this offseason:

Cuban: "Oh yeah we did. ... First and foremost was keeping our existing free agents, our guys. That's most important, because we can go look for the prettier person on the other side of the street, but if you don't keep your guys, you don't have a squad. There's value to bringing somebody in, but you get that, what Nellie (former Mavs coach Don Nelson) used to call 'corporate knowledge.' The longer you keep a team together, the better they know how to play with each other, so there's a value there, so we have two really young cornerstones. It's more about keeping all those guys together and building together. We were interested in Kemba (Walker), that was the one name associated with (us) we were interested (in).

"We didn't expect Al Horford to opt out. Who knew that would happen? So when he decided to stay closer to home and go to Boston, well we had to adjust. After Kemba, when Kemba wasn't really going to be available at the start of free agency, our first call literally was Delon Wright, because we wanted somebody that could defend next to Luka and most of our guys, particularly our ones, twos were walk-it-up guys. Delon's a downhill guy who can defend multiple positions. We'll work with him some on his shot, but he's a great finisher, he can get to the rim, he'll make the play, he helps make his teammates better, and that's what we were looking for. Because trying to get Luka to guard point guards is not going to work. With Jalen Brunson, he did a great job as a rookie and he'll get better, but his strength still, he's still learning to stay in front of guys. Delon is there. Delon's a passer, a creator, but now 6-foot-5 will be our smallest guy in the starting lineup. That changes who we are."

On major free-agent targets largely going to major markets:

Cuban: "I don't care. They still got to win the games, you still got to put together a team and it becomes challenging, but it also teaches you you've got to keep your own players happy. Those guys are leaving for a reason. Who knows what they are. Sometimes it's to go play closer to home, but if they would have been thrilled to death, hopefully they would have stayed. So signing our own guys, keeping them happy, putting together an organization and culture that keeps them engaged and wanting to stay. All that movement just shows you that becomes more of a priority. ... In terms of the movement, I think it's great for the NBA. Now instead of having one super team that everybody is trying to beat and then LeBron's an attraction, now we've got a bunch of super teams. And even those super teams only have two superstars. None of them really have three that I've been able to count. It takes a little bit of luck and it takes building a team."

Do you think the trend of signing a contract and wanting out before it is over is good for the league?

Cuban: "Again, it's like any other job, it's like any other company. I've had companies where I've had great AI scientists want to leave and you got to work to keep them. It's their right to do what they think is right for their career, but like any employer in any company, it's my job to try to keep them happy and you're not going to win 100% of those battles, but at least I can try."
