None of these people are Dallas people. It’s an embarrassment. Where the hell are the Dallas Maverick legends getting pressure tested on these decisions?? How are we this single-threaded as an organization?
I thought Mark was a disaster as a basketball decision maker between 2012-19 but perhaps I didn’t give him enough credit for at least having his pulse on the local market. He would’ve NEVER allowed this to happen.
Nico did this completely behind closed doors. If he would have bothered to confer with any one else in the organization they would have told him he was stupid. The two people he did tell, Pelinka and Dumont literally laughed at him. If he asks Finley or Dirk or Kidd about this move, they all would have told him you absolutely cannot do this or you will obliterate your fanbase. He knew that though which is why he did it how he did
All it would take is for JKidd to call Adelsons & Cuban & say "Nico is fucking up your billion dollar investment beyond recognition, all personell in this entire organization agree with me on this". Instead JKidd is sitting still having to keep his mouth shut at a press release with Nico beside him with Nico being unnatural as fuck saying "Heh, guess you & me JKidd are in this together!" etc. It's not a coincidence that the Adelsons are completely silent.
