Mavericks hire Dusty May as next Head Coach

Not sure I buy the idea that the Mavs will now prioritize young raw players. I think May will have to be able to win with the best talent the Mavs can amass, and don't see them doing a mass fire sale of experienced players on their roster to make room for lesser-talented youngsters.

But you get 5 stars from me for the word hermeneutic. Nice.

Okay. I think you're way overstating the *raw* young players thing. I don't think Masai intends to bring in a bunch of projects and say, "Here ya go, Dusty, get to work on winning!" But with the right rookies, players still on their first or second contracts, and of course Cooper freaking Flagg, as well as a smattering of vets, well, that, to me reflects May's capabilities of building a winner quickly.
