For toonlong though, I didn’t like how the mavs treated players. Especially when they leave. I think that will change. The Nico/kidd run felt so cold how they talked about the players leaving.
Tim MacMahon on talking to people who know Dusty May well:
“They all rave about his basketball IQ, but they say his EQ (emotional quotient) is just as high. He has a reputation as a dude who is outstanding at creating relationships with players.”
From what I have heard from May is that he is a great communicator and really is clear in his conversations. I also found it interesting that he thought even after signing 3 future lottery picks, that he thought the Michigan point guard was the most important signing as he would be able to get the ball to everyone.
