Next GM Watch

[F Gump]

Kidd is not going to be GM. This board sounds like a QANON meeting sometimes.

Kidd is more likely to be fired than hired.

Dumont will get a real GM in the summer. AD probably won't be traded until then.

Dumont was a moron for trusting Nico, but he is a smart business man. And he doesn't have Cuban's manchild ego.

He deserves a chance to prove himself. I think him showing patience to wait to the summer is mature and smart.

I think what you are saying here is WAY more likely than the Mavs rushing to grab one of these piles of junk being proposed. I agree with you -- maybe just wishing, but I've been around the block a bit -- that Dumont HAS TO be smart enough to get a smart guy and a strong return before making a franchise defining trade. 

He  screwed up badly in trusting Nico the Idiot, but I think that will make him cautious rather than hasty. And probably have him waiting until he has hired the expert. (I am not convinced that AD has such limited value, in the right hands. Envision what Presti can do in getting the return!)
