My sense is the biggest mistake was not having the foresight to hire Ric Brunson.
I dont think that matters. Its not a dumb thought by any means and makes sense.
I still feel like Leon, Rick, JB and Leon's son have had a plan for a while and Mavs werent part of that plan.
Definitely looks like the Brunson's are in a good situation being close with decision makers in New York. Again...in hindsight it looks like Mavs should have seen this and traded JB(if a deal made sense) last off season or at TDL. And...especially if Mark knew he would be a tight wad about Lux Tax and that possibly hurting the JB negotiations if they ever got to that point.
