I really liked Morey quote I saw in one of todays article - "it's a failed perception you have to have all the pieces in place in summer" (don't take it word by word, but I remembered the message).
As for Luka and KP - how do we know that new coach and GM can't make it work? I think it is clear best way for Mavs moving forward is to make KP work.
Forde is credited with three POBO/GM searches in the Ringer article. The article says his process takes about a month. Here are the time frames for each credited search.
SAC (1 Month)
Divac Fired 8/14/2020
McNair Hired 9/16/2020
NO (2 Months)
Demps Fired 2/15/2019
Griffin Hired 4/17/2019
Note: Griffin hired Langdon a month later to be his GM. Danny Ferry was interim GM during the search process and was a candidate for the job.
WASH (3.5 Months)
Grunfeld Fired 4/2/2019
Sheppard Hired 7/19/2019
Note: Sheppard was on staff and handled duties as interim. His official hire came after the draft and free agency
One way we may get a clue as to how long this takes and how bad things are is if they announce an interim and if that person is Finley or someone from the outside.
