Just to clarify, is Bob the one who pushed for the Curry trade, or was it Donnie? That’s the truly horrible front office decision of the past couple of years. Curry is just lighting it up. With Curry instead of JRich, the Mavs are on their way to the WCF, with a decent shot at the Chip. If it was Bob, then the irony is that the trade was between two sides that base decisions on analytic models instead of intuition, demonstrating the superiority of Morey’s model. In that case, who needs such disruption from a data guy who just got his ass handed to him by another data guy and was revealed as an amateur? Get rid of that guy. On the other hand, if Donnie made that call, then the right person lost his job.
