He then proceeds to make a joke (supposedly) about how much chaos that guy has already caused.
So much for "now we'll have a clear organizational structure with Nico on top."
This is the part I don't understand. If I understand the scope of the President Of Basketball Operations job, it is literally his job to decide who is involved in the analytics department. How in the hell does Nico think that claiming ignorance about Bob's status does anything but undermine the perception of his authority within the organization?
People have been talking about how Mark Cuban is basically the defacto GM and that no new exec will have any actual power and here we are with our new exec basically saying "idk lol" about the status of an employee who should be directly under his purview. Amateur hour.
