NBA Fire Nico

[inagra]

They only have control of their 26 pick. They have to tank this year cause they can’t for the next 4 years after.

Davis gets traded for sure.

My guess is Davis gets traded to bulls or hornets.

Now which organization is desperate enough to trade for AD? The warriors? Clippers?

 

[Exstatic]

What a mess. Have they named a replacement? Do Kidd, Irving and AD stay long-term. Do they waive Klay? Can they build around Flagg?
Mostly, I’m just glad we don’t have to worry about them too much as we ascend in the West.

Kidd wanted out last summer, but they wouldn’t release him from his contract. I think AD is 100% on the market now. I think Irving could be if he shows good recovery.

You usually want to fire your shitty management before they completely fuck over your organization, but I guess now is better than never

Bubye Nico. When does the fire sale start?

Too bad they already pissed away Grimes. I like Max Christie but not gonna be a lot of minutes for him here once Harper is healthy, so guess PJ Washington is the only player worth swiping.

Nico is gone

Mavs fire GM Harrison amid continued fan angst

The Mavericks on Tuesday fired general manager Nico Harrison, who had been under fire from fans following last season's trade of Luka Doncic to the Lakers.

AD is from Chicago and has said he wants to finish his career there.

AD for Vucevic/Collins/Coby White and a top10 protected Bulls pick would be reasonable.
White would be the ballhandler/score Mavs need and they'd get rid of long term salaries.

Not sure why Chicago trades Vecevic White and a Top-10 pick. I understand salary is an issue with Davis as he’s a $55m dude, but that’s an awful lot for a player who won’t play in half the games your paying, is post-prime, and isn’t an alpha.

Wonder if SELL THE TEAM becomes the new chant at AAC

 

[Shmurs]

I wonder if Dallas fans would agree to moving out the entire org (Flagg included) in exchange for a fresh expansion team.

I’d like to move this group to Vegas and swap in one of the new teams. This is depressing and flagg’s too interesting to have to go through this.

 

[JMarkJohns]

Not sure the NBA needs the Vegas heat right now. First, the market is now wildly oversaturated. How in the hell is Vegas a 4-sport city? Awful awful big picture thinking there. It’s not one.

Their entire city is based upon good economies and there’s a million things to do in Vegas besides a random ass regular season game for a baseball, hockey, or basketball team. Only reason football even merits a discussion is it’s the freaking Raiders. Hockey got there first and best so I’d imagine they have the other half the market share.

And then… after all that… you add the gambling aspect of Vegas to the gambling addled NBA subplot.

Only team going to Vegas will be owned by LeBron, and I’m not certain that’s a given any longer. LeBron should champion the Seattle SuperSonics return.

Nico will eventually go to LA or back to Nike. For now he can just enjoy the money from his contract. Total fleecing of the Mavericks by Nike and the league.
