NEWS: Donnie out | Nico Harrison (Nike) as Pres/GM | Fin as VP | Dirk as Advisor

[ItsGoTime]

Two things:

1) I don't think Ujiri, nor any GM worth having, is coming here without complete autonomy. As in, Cuban butts out on *all* basketball matters. A lack of hand-wringing about this situation is imprudent given that's why Cuban wants to be the owner at all. It's his toy, not an investment. Who's to say that a GM as willing as Donnie to bend over for Cuban is going to make any difference whatsoever, or is going to be one iota better than Donnie?
2) I think that Occam's Razor says that Bob has been the guy for months. If Cuban doesn't reconsider that, we Mavs fans are completely screwed.

1) That's not necessarily true. Having someone else negotiating contracts and trades, planning, talking to players and other GM's could be a good thing. I guess it could get worse, although any new guy that comes in will probably have a much shorter leash.

So Donnie will be the new Raps. GM?...

Nope, Celtics head of scouting dept.
