MAVS 105, TIMBERWOLVES 111

[Chicagojk]

The Nico interview still bothers me.  I don't expect him to give any breaking news but I really was interested in hearing him talk about a vision he views moving forward.    It was a tough interview for Followill (BTW he did great doing the game by himself).   He doesn't want to ask uncomfortable questions and he still has to call the game.   I hope Nico is keeping things really close to the vest.  Although the Mavs dysfunction the last 10 years is making me not trust anything and judge purely off results.   

Less Cuban is always a good strategy.   He is the owner so he will have ultimate say, but I want him out of all roster building, for the most part.   I don't know if Nico has the personality to manage Cuban correctly.   As much as I love Dirk, if he is involved there is a much better chance that he is Vlade than a Jerry West.   Michael Finley looks the part and I am sure he is very smart, but he had a front row seat to the clown show the last few years.   

I want the vision to be Nico's (or whoever we hired for that role) moving forward.   I just get a weird feeling it is still a decision making process where there are a lot of cooks in the kitchen and not just one vision being followed.   I hope I am wrong.  I feel like we have been burned for so long, I am taking the approach I am going to be skeptical until proven incorrect.
