NEWS: Donnie out | Nico Harrison (Nike) as Pres/GM | Fin as VP | Dirk as Advisor

[HanspardsShowerVoice]

We don't know enough to determine whether Voulgaris is good at his job or not. Cuban SHOULD know. He should know what Voulgaris has pushed for and not pushed for and then have the results of these last few years to reflect on.

It wouldn't surprise me if Voulgaris is anti-social and hard to get along with, but incredibly good at offering perspectives and advice. 

I think Cato did his job in his article, but I do not necessarily trust the perspectives of his sources...they obviously had an axe to grind, so their perspectives were probably dripping and tainted in high emotions and frustrations.

Point being, I wouldn't give up on Voulgaris as a fan until I really see more evidence.

Right.  If Voulgaris is gone I'm not going to be up in arms on it, but I'm also not basing my opinion on him based on what was obviously a hit piece fed by sources who had an axe to grind.    Seemingly the problem is he was given an outsized role in the organization and part of that was due to Donnie's weakness and lack of authority as a GM.    If he's cool with just being a traditional head of analytics guy feeding information to a GM, who serves as ultimate decision maker, then that's cool.  Maybe he's good at what he does.   The Mavs offensive rating and wins were punching way above their roster talent bodyweight for the last two years, even when Luka has been out for extended time with inury, so someone in the organization is cooking up some kind of chicken salad.
