LOL

Why not the Mavs?  Because OKC is looking like a dynasty and Presti has a boatload of picks to wheel and deal and continue to do his job for the next many years, a job he presumably loves.  It's not like his team is on the downswing and the Mavs provide an exciting new opportunity.  

It's hard to even put into words how much of a money grubbing whore you'd have to be to leave OKC for Dallas.  

It doesn't hurt to check.  I imagine that conversation lasts about 15 seconds.

~shrug~ blah blah blah ... no disrespect meant to you personally, but the idea itself being expressed is so short-sighted.

It's easy to be so dismissive of anything that doesn't adhere to our own expectations. And then *bam* out of the blue one time it all goes the opposite way, when no one would have believed it might be possible. We have YEARS of NBA history that say something incredibly unexpected can happen.

So rather than assume the negative, I say pursue the best. And fwiw, as dismal as he was in managing Nico (I think he was fooled by Nico's self-praise), I think Dumont might have the chops to envision and navigate getting to the better outcome that people might not tend to consider. 

Dumont - Go get Presti.
