If there's one silver lining in all of this, it's that the franchise is officially moving away from that guy. Dumont is very likely everyone's least favorite guy in the world right now, next to Harrison, maybe, but I don't get the feeling Harrison has a lifetime contract like Donnie Nelson kind of did, do you? If/when there's a GM change, THAT's something I can envision someone like Dumont taking very seriously and possibly getting right.
I know I'm really reaching for the positive here, but...
Nothing Dumont or Adelson has done in the 12 months of ownership has given me any kind of confidence that they will nail a replacement GM hiring.
This is the same guy that okay’ed this Luka trade. And listen if you want to make the worst possible choice and trade Luka, at least get a crazy return when you do it.
That’s why I am totally convinced when, not if, Nico is fired, the first dude that schmoozes Dumont with whatever fancy basketball lingo they use will be hired. Because Dumont doesn’t know what he doesn’t know.
