He got his shot to start after injury to teammates. He earned his own right to stay there, but that is on him, not the coaching staff or the FO.
[*]He wasn't going to sign a contract that gave the Mavs control at the end of it.
[*]They offer him the extension before he clearly starts to take off, he'd still be a Mav
[*]New York State of Mind is not only a great song, it's been Brunson's sole goal to return.
[*]They offer him more than 5/110 in free agency and I think there's a great chance he'd still be a Mav
[*]He got the contract offer he wanted from NYK (they could have offered more) before FA started and had little to no more contact with Dallas.
There are so many millions of theories of what happened, anyone's guess is no better than the next. Like I said before, spilled milk. Clean it up and move on, IMO.
