Why assume there is not?
Hiring Harrison as President has *just* come out--and only 'reportedly' not an actual official announcement yet. Until he actually holds a press conference or makes some hires of his own, we have no idea what Nico thinks a high-functioning, successful basketball operations team looks like.
(And I absolutely agree with the takes that, given his existing position and the fact he's turned down other teams before, if Nico is taking the job here, he's had assurances that he's going to get to make decisions like whether or not he wants a GM and who that person will be).
