Here we go. 

People are pissed at Cuban's decision. I know many here will welcome the news, but if people feel so strongly about this that they're willing to walk away from the chance to be part of Luka's era, I'm thinking stuff isn't great right now. 

I have a bad feeling about all of this.

Wow...what a shock.  This one will be much more difficult to fill.   Mark better hit some homeruns with his hires this offseason.  Best coach in Mavs history.

No mention of Luka.......

Boston?

Milwaukee?

That is bad news.
That said,  a new era is really upon us,  for better or worse

Totally disagree.

I have a VERY GOOD feeling about this.

Mark sat down and shared his vision moving forward, RC didn't care for his role within it or the vision overall, so he steps down. 

The Mavericks needed a COMPLETE overhaul SO BADLY. So glad this is happening!

Waiting for Cuban's "Total BS" tweet

I think we’re going to have Finley as the PBO/GM and Mosley as HC.

Neither would shock me. 

I said multiple times this season that it felt like Mosley was doing more of the coaching then RC and that RC looked disengaged compared to normal.

Ok, I know you feel strongly about the second sentence, but...

This is a well respected coach walking away (NOT getting fired - Cuban WANTS him here) from the chance to coach Luka Doncic, with TWO YEARS left on his deal, presumably either because he has another opportunity he thinks is better, or because he just can't take anymore of what he thinks is a futile work situation. 

Even if you're in the camp who doesn't get why Carlisle is great, and there are many here in that camp, I don't see how this is encouraging. I really, truly don't, and I absolutely WANT to feel hopeful about it.

I wonder how excited people will be about that!

Maybe Rick looked disengaged because of the organizational disfunction. I hope you're right that this will be a good thing.

This situation is becoming so Cleveland Cavaliers, and I just hate it so much.

As I said in another thread, it's time to close the door on the Dirk Era and officially usher in the Luka Era.   That means the Luka Era General Manager, which inevitably leads to the Luka Era Head Coach.   It's obvious Luka and Rick were butting heads, and things weren't going to get any more copacetic with a new GM.  

Better that it happens now than a new GM is brought in, Carlisle and new GM butt heads, Carlisle walks away a year from now.   Saves us a year of time.

We don't know the ROLE that Cuban wants him in. RC may have had some GMing power that is being rescinded....maybe more of his coaching authority or hiring authority was being taken away. Maybe he was given vision directives he didn't like. 

There is no way we know those details, so again, based on what I saw THIS season...I am very happy this total clean up is happening.

Boston or Milwaukee?
