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

Both of you make great points. My take is this. What we have learned over the last week or so is how much dysfunction exists in this organization. Keeping a lot of the old guards while bringing on a GM and asking him to do his job, is IMO rehashing what has not worked for a decade. 

So Bob still would have Cuban’s ears. Coach Mos would know he was Cuban’s hire and not the GM’s Both can make it difficult for the GM to implement his vision even if they mean well 

We cannot have this dysfunction anymore. I am sorry. Yes every owner has final say in things. I am fine with that. You need a coach. You need a nerd analytics guy. Yes. However hire the GM (cannot be an internal hire) and let the GM hire all those folks so that everyone other than the GM knows clearly that they report to the GM. The GM in turn is accountable to Cuban. That IMO is the only way to go forward from this decade long mess.

This. And it´s not like any of the internal options are young and upcoming stars. Finley has been vice president of basketball operation for nearly eight years. We cannot act like he wasn´t a part of the decision making in the last couple of years.
Same for Mosley but to a lesser degree. We aren´t talking about a young and innovative newcomer like Stevens. Mosley has been around the league for more than 15 years. From Denver, to Cleveland, to Dallas. 20/21 was his seventh season with the Mavs. He is well liked among players but hasn´t been able to secure a head coaching job.
