IZTOK DIAGNOSES DECLINE OF MAVS OFFENSE

[KillerLeft]

IMO This was classic Cuban style - to try to discover an answer no one else would have considered. Less expensive hire, perhaps, given the lack of a track record. But once he was set on having to have Nico be the hire, then Nico could define parameters, which it has always sounded like he did.

This is an interesting perspective. I hadn't thought of it in quite this way, really, and it makes some sense.

How do you reconcile that awkward moment during the original presser when Cuban said (paraphrasing) that of course, everyone for the Mavs works for him, and that he'll always be the one in charge. After the rant, he turned to Harrison for support, and Harrison awkwardly said something like "makes sense to me!"
