Im not into analytics...but I assume if you have a staff of analytics guys, ideas like the one you mentioned would be a regular thing.
I watched an hour long interview with Cuban about a year and a half ago...some interesting tidbits...he talked about how in the 90's most of the players smoked weed but now hardly any of the youngsters smoke weed...they are more business minded so to speak. But the interview came to analytics and Cuban was saying that most of the best businesses in the World are run by math guys.
Just seems like he has been operating with a short staffed math department, imo.
Just cannot get over the Cuban quote from the Barnes/Jackson podcast:
"I called the owner in Atlanta. You're not picking Luka. And you know the guy you want. So lets just do this deal. Cause he`ll be there for you. We give you a pick and you know...instead of the GMs messing around we just get this done."
It's not about the staff size. Question is if Cuban is listening to them or going rogue.
