2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[Kammrath]

The reports about Parson´s or Fegan´s role are fan-fiction? The Bob draft night drama is made up? Those things happened. If Cuban didn´t pay attention it was his fault. He himself mentioned that he has final say on important decisions. If that´s the case he is responsible. So those things happened under Cuban´s watch.

Strongly disagree with your take on the situation. Agree that Cuban wasn´t as involved in the day to day stuff. Problem was that he still wanted to make the big decisions.

So my take at this time:

Donnie ran a completely inept organization. He was the president of basketball operations but did not function as such as far as leading and streamlining everything. There was never one single voice from the organization coming from the president. Because of this many, MANY voices could get to and were trying to get to Cuban. Donnie, RC, Bob, Fegan, Parson, etc were all jockeying for power. Cuban had many competing voices in his ear and not a single organized voice and so he didn't know what to listen to. 

This IS Cuban's fault. He should have seen the dysfunction and stopped it. But he let it persist. But it didn't happen because he wanted to make decisions on his own. He WAS listening to people, but just didn't know who to listen to in the chaos. AND he was too involved with many other side projects. He needed to be MORE involved in the Mavs OR just let another voice make the calls.

My hope moving forward? 

Everything in the organization gets filtered through Nico. Nico ALONE comes to Cuban and presents the plan. Cuban then asks questions to understand why and then checks off on it. Done.
