What’s even more puzzling is the Grimes trade. The Mavs essentially threw in a top of the 2nd round pick in a deep, deep draft, a player who’d be a first rounder any other year for the privilege of downgrading their roster with an older inferior player who’s already injured and not likely to really be healthy in the near future. It’s pure lunacy. Nico is an idiot. Without Lindsey holding his hand, his signature moves have been not making a serious effort to retain Brunson, trading a first for the ridiculous Christian Wood, losing DJj, and getting robbed of an all time great player. It’s like he’s trying to sabotage he team. The Mavs are fucked for a decade.
"Nico is an idiot." -- No question. His negotiating is horrendous and he has to go, before he botches something else.
