04:03 PM ET 10.08 | Deron Williams had a tough decision this summer. The free-agent point guard could have stayed with the Brooklyn Nets or returned to his hometown to play with the Dallas Mavericks. Eventually, he stayed in Brooklyn, and according to Williams, one reason was because Mavericks owner Mark Cuban was too busy taping episodes of the TV show "Shark Tank" to attend a meeting with him.
