2021-2022 MAVS NEWS: 4th in West | WCF loss [ARCHIVED]

Cuban said he is not commenting on employees, that are not visible (non mastheads in latest iteration). He clearly specified that. Never said anything about stuff decisions being Nico decision. 

You're being overly literal. As time goes on it looks to me like we're seeing Mark use that as his out when someone asks him about something that is Nico's responsibility. 

Besides, I don't understand your point here. Why is Nico not in charge of Keith? You are saying that Nico and Cuban had an agreement on who stays and goes before Nico signed?

Nico is now Keith's boss. But Keith is not a new hire. Yes, I'm sure that Nico agreed to keep Keith when he took the job. It's a smart move. Cleaning house on day one would have made year one much more difficult. Keith and Fin would both be great helpers for a new boss getting up to speed. I can't imagine Nico feeling his toes were stepped on by Cuban mentioning 40 year Mavs, Mav Encyclopedia, Keith Grant. 

But why would be so difficult to say it - Nico is in charge. Period. Very simple. But he didn't say that.

Cuban didn't say what you thought of to say because Cuban said what he thought of to say.

I have this same conversation with someone I'm really close to. "Why did you do it like that?" Me: "Because that's the way I thought to do it. I couldn't have done it the way you thought to do it because I didn't think of doing it that way." 

Why should the standard be whether or not Cuban said it the way Omahen thought to say it? 

He said he has his circle of trust and decisions are made there. By him.

Yes, he said, "there's a lot of money involved, so I have final say". That comment was obviously about player contracts. Mark has to check off on the 20 million dollar checks.
