SAC (1 Month)
Divac Fired 8/14/2020
McNair Hired 9/16/2020
NO (2 Months)
Demps Fired 2/15/2019
Griffin Hired 4/17/2019
Note: Griffin hired Langdon a month later to be his GM. Danny Ferry was interim GM during the search process and was a candidate for the job.
WASH (3.5 Months)
Grunfeld Fired 4/2/2019
Sheppard Hired 7/19/2019
Note: Sheppard was on staff and handled duties as interim. His official hire came after the draft and free agency
One way we may get a clue as to how long this takes and how bad things are is if they announce an interim and if that person is Finley or someone from the outside.
So, the Mavs are following in the footsteps of Washington, NO, and Sac? Ugh
