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

Unfortunately I just don't see a lot of positives in latest moves and I agree with most from Cato article. Basically Cuban replaced two advisors with two new ones - not much of a change really. Main strength of new guys seem to be relationship building while there is a lot left to desire in other fields. Kidd resume is not really shining and filled with bridge burning, backstabbing stuff. Harrison might be liked by players but lacks any experience in the FO business. Mavs were not creative regarding cap space and team building as it was and current moves don't really address those issues. Sure this guys can bring in personnel to help them, but why really. They were brought in to advise Cuban, not to work independently.

They doubled down on FA in a season where there are really no top FA available. Are you guys comfortable if the plan is plan powder again? I am not. Do you trust their ability to execute? I do not.
