Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

[Jmaciscool]

Per MacMahon on The Hoop Collective, Scott Tomlin (former Director of Basketball Communications for the Mavs) was also with Dirk at Luka’s Laker debut. Of course he now works for Dirk’s foundation, but interesting nonetheless. If we’re to believe how few people were consulted/made aware of the trade, I imagine there must be some divide amongst employees who are now greatly impacted by Nico’s decision

My guess would be the vast majority (if not everyone outside of Nico/Dumont/Adelsons) are not happy right now.  Season ticket refunds, subscription fees down, lower sales, etc are going to potentially impact them financially.  I can't imagine my frustration level if I was both a fan AND had to work for the organization.

For a guy that supposedly has a strength in relationships Nico really REALLY didn't understand the relationship the fans and city had with Luka.  Which is strange since it seems so obvious to everyone else.
