Was just about to say giving the job to Finley isn't much better
Need an established outside guy
It's temporary. They'll hire a real GM next offseason.

I doubt Riccardi/Finley will make any major decisions. They've got to have someone though in the short term until they can find their guy.

This part was predictable, and doesn't worry me.
They're making this move soooo incredibly early so that they can get the guy in place prior to the trade season, I assume. And, if not, you can bet Dumont and probably Cuban will be more hands on until this is all resolved. Not ideal, but certainly not a huge blow for those who've been hoping/praying for this outcome for 9 straight months.

Agreed. The first image that came to mind when I read this was the film footage of Finley taking a beer out of Luka's hand in a postgame.

I've got to hand it to everyone who didn't let up. Once Harrison survived the summer (I still don't understand how), I thought for sure he was safe for the duration of AD's time here at a minimum. Then again, I didn't think the team would start THIS poorly in my wildest dreams, and I'm sure that's a big part of this, but still - the people who beat this dead horse might have actually moved the needle on this one, so well done!

The insanely early timing of this leads me to believe they might hire one sooner than that. This is CRAZY early in the season. They didn't even let the team attempt to get healthy and play together for a stretch.

Can we bring Carlisle back?

You're a good sport, pal! Good to see Nico gone AND a time where the dead horse no longer has to be beaten.

I would love that.
But no way he leaves the Pacers.

We don't need major move now... Just tank and let the kids play.

First think that should happen is "FireNicoHarrison" to change his screen name.

I think we'll need some trades before the trade deadline. It'll be time to get the olds out of the way and get as much for them as possible.

Our vets have all time low value now... It's risky.

@TheSteinLine
A letter from Mavericks owner Patrick Dumont to fans explaining the decision to part ways with GM Nico Harrison is expected to be distributed today, @TheSteinLine and @DLLS_Sports has learned.

That should be an interesting read.

Somebody's gotta sign the checks in the interim.

I'm not so sure... He is guilty too.
He needs to apologize.
