How Long Until Nico Harrison is Fired?

They let Brunson walk, who ended up turning into a top 5 point guard in the league.

Obviously the whole Luka ordeal.

Davis gets injured immediately thinking it would be different.

Kyrie blows out his knee.

Quentin Grimes since getting traded by the Mavs...

Depends on whether or not the owners were the ones truly behind the Doncic trade. If it was his idea a big postseason by Doncic gets him fired this summer. He's likely done either way but if the owners pushed him to do it he could get next year to see how far AD can lead them. Either way he's fired by 2026 because even if the owners mandated it they will need someone to sacrifice to fan wrath.

He wont be.

The fact he wont be will prove there was a larger force at play here.

They have to if they want to save face. I 100% believe the owners were behind trading the face of the franchise, there's no way a GM would be able to do this on their own.

The only thing that's going to save Dallas is if Silver gifts them the #1 overall pick.

It makes a lot more sense that the owners wanted to tank the team and alienate the fans to move it to Las Vegas.

Let's not forget giving Luka a perfect 3&D/enforcer guy in Naji Marshall who is playing amazing basketball. They had the perfect team crafted around Luka and blew it all to hell for no acceptable reason. Pathetic. An outlandish, laughably bad trade even if you play devil's advocate. Grimes was extra insult to injury.

This years Mavs pre-Luka trade was probably most well balanced, well crafted team based on a superstar's talents that I can personally remember. A few untimely injuries is the only thing that made it not blatantly obvious to everyone early. A basketball tragedy in my book.

Looking back I guess there should have been real concern about Nico destroying the team when the rumblings about trading Gafford began. That's pretty inexcusable considering how formidable the Lively/Gafford tandem is and how it was a nuclear weapon Luka unlocked. Zero reason to trade Gafford unless you already know you're about to blow the team up.
