Maybe.
At a minimum we know "the spokesman has spoken." Cuban loves being the face of the organization. And I don't ever see that changing.
Two possibilities from my seat:
1) When Cuban says "we" he is simply speaking on behalf of the people he has empowered to make moves. He is simply being the spokesman and face of the Mavs and Nico/Kidd/Fin are behind this move.
2) Cuban is frustrated with the direction of things and the choices made this summer and is now starting to wield his power again. I do think this is very possible as I think Kemba was always a guy CUBAN wanted.
My fear is that #2 is happening. Cato said Cuban empowered Nico/Kidd this summer and now Cuban is being given evidence that they are incompetent and maybe he can do the job better than they can. UGH. I sure hope it isn't #2.
UGH. Actually #1 isn't any better when I think about it because Nico/Kidd/Fin have not proved to be slightly competent so far.
