Nico Harrison + Rick Welts Season Ending Press Conference

[omahen]

I don't want to write about this in the game thread, but Dan asked himself, why this stupid press thing was done before the game.

Media guys (Stein, MacMahon) think Dumont demanded this to happen. Initial plan was to be had before the Luka homecoming game, which would make more sense. No one is sure why they postponed it. It seems they all lived in a delusion that Luka homecomijng game will put a closure to everything.

I think the only explanation that makes sense is that this presser is a preparation for firing Nico. I can't imagine Mavs moving forward with all the noise. Players could ask themselves, if they really want to be part of this mess. But if you fire Nico, I think everything gets quiet. Dumont can hide from media, Kidd officially wasn't involved in the Luka trade, new guy is just here to clean the mess.
