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

[fifteenth]

So far all we can say is that Cuban really hates making changes at the HC and GM position, but the few times he has  hey went out and got highly respected people to fill the job.    The only hires have been Rick Carlisle, who he hired outside the organization and was regarded as the best coach on the market, and Avery who revisionist history has rewritten as this Mavs/Cuban crony but actually was highly regarded at the time as an up and coming coach.    He was groomed by Pop and personally selected by Nellie to be his successor, to the point where Avery was acting as the de facto head coach while Nellie was out for extended time with a shoulder surgery.    

So if Cuban goes out, yet again, and hires outside the organization and brings in respected NBA guy to be his new GM, I wonder if people will stop and readjust their priors?  I'm guessing probably not.   People are just too addicted to their narratives about Cuban.

Can't speak for others, but for my part, I haven't been ranting about Cuban since he blew up the championship team. I gave it a good long break because it seemed like the Mavs were doing better. 

The stuff I've been complaining about this time is what happened this time. And we're still in the middle of "this time".

Not bizarre at all. He has the chance to GM in other situations where getting to the top is a MUCH clearer path.....

@"HanspardsShowerVoice", this would shut my Cuban angst up for a good while I think!
