If Nico had taken the best offers around the league, Dallas should have at least gotten back Reeves and another FRP to go along with Max. No way they should have traded their prime age Superstar Guard while leaving the Lakers with their own starting guard.
The question was about any possible path to Nico Rehab as the Dallas GM. The point here is more about what might have been in Nico's head. Perhaps he thought the Mavs backcourt would still be strong enough with Kyrie, Klay, Exum, Dinwiddie. Perhaps he thought and Hardy and B. Will were ready to step up a level to do the offensive creation. Yes none of those players could be expected to replace Luka just as the Lakers couldn't reasonably expect to easily have someone step up into AD's spot on the front line.
Honestly?
Mavs have to win a ring in next 2/3 years AND Luka not... So chanches are like 0. Zero.
Ultimately no, Harrison is done like GM in Dallas for me.
No way out.
