I notice there is still the narrative on the board that everything good is because of Nico and everything bad is because of Cuban. I think its time for that to stop. If Nico is getting the credit for the KP trade, then any mistakes made during from that point of time til now need to be in his lap as well. A GM needs to know his owners appetite for tax. To let our second best player walk without offering an extension, trading at the deadline or at least getting something from an S&T is a complete failure.
I don't really know why folks expected different. Why would a rando with no NBA experience be able to come in and be one of the better GMs in the league. There was no reason to believe he would be. The Nico Honeymoon period should be over.
I'm not absolving Cuban, who has been cheap for over 10 years and hired Nico to begin with, but I feel like the unreasonable Nico cheerleading should probably be put to bed.
