2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[Not an evil robot]

I have been saying Cuban IS to blame. My posts are crystal clear on that.

I simply do not think Cuban was the GM (and doing all the things that GMs do). 

That's all my point is. I have never said at any point that Cuban doesn't bear responsibility. It all happened under him, that is inexcusable.

Back when this was all happening and now, I think you consistently undersell just how culpable he is for the dysfunction by focusing on other front office contributions and whether he was the GM (or not). That latter question isn’t very valuable in an organization with poorly defined responsibilities, inconsistent decision authority, and amorphous roles. Not to mention finding yourself in a situation where that’s not an instantly laughable question is an indictment itself.

The bigger question is whether executive leadership structuring the organization to be successful. I think he is the person to blame and it quickly becomes difficult to evaluate everyone else involved given the limited information that actually gets reported. Others may have serious flaws but the water is muddied by the guy taking a backhoe to his own riverbank.
