The Mavs FO has had a major reorganization. Guys who used to have inside sources (Stein) may not have as much anymore. We don't have a feel yet for who (if anyone) Nico, Kidd, the new cap guy, the new analytics guy etc might be willing to leak info too or how much they are willing to negotiate through the media, etc. It's only by tracking what's reported by who and then comparing it to what actually happens that we'll start to learn that. (Right now, it's 'too small a sample size' for any certainty).
Perfect summation of the situation and what I am trying to parse through. We know that this is "misinformation" season and with the leadership change I am very interested in who gets the real scoops and who is pushing agent agendas, etc.
Thanks for articulating this better than I could.
