Issac, I'm sure you got the bulletin a while back BUT….some people just want to be mad. FULL STOP.
Scapegoat to move the team to Vegas
Dumonts and the adelsons are some of the most powerful people in America. With the extremely low odds of them getting the first pick, you have to wonder what kind of backroom deal or bribe they made with silver to get the first pick. I don't think it was part of the deal to get Luka, but after the disaster season, ownership probably went to the league and leveraged themselves into the first overall pick.
Nico was 100 percent the escape goat. Miriam Adelson gave him the order to get rid of Luka, and right after Nico asked for extension because he knew he will be fired sooner rather then later. Nico did it for the money, and Luka being let go had nothing to do to do with basketball, the truth will come out sooner then you all think
Patrick Dumont owns the team it’s his fault at the end of the day.
I’m still convinced that the league forced the trade so that way Lakers get a superstar and ratings go up. Silver promised dumont they’d get gambling legalized in Texas so that way they could get the casino stadium built. The NBA is corrupt can’t convince this wasn’t an inside job by the NBA
Mavs fans should complain about the release of the Epstein files, LOL. Dumont made the FINAL decision on Luka…NH is a scapegoat.
I been saying yall blaming nick but it was really Dumonts call
To be fair Grant Williams was how we got PJ not Reggie Bullock
Where Omax now?
Grimes trade also included what may be a high second round pick, for a bench sitter.
Yall wanted the man gone stop talking about him then nobody wants to talk about kidd sabotaging the season by experimenting with lineups and a new offense i don’t think he should’ve got fired after 10 games And we ain’t even see the team yet the team is not bad thats not nico fault mfs missing wide open 3s and jumpshots
You guys trying to get the fans to chant sale the team! Why?
Injuries?? You knew ad and lively are always hurt plus you knew ky was hurt. Plus we have seen ad and lively play! The were bad
Even if the owner made the call nothing justifies getting that little in return for a transcendent talent only negotiating with the lakers in secret. You open up the bidding and get the best deal available. Nico been wanting AD for years and he pitched and sold his vision to ownership on the trade.
I don't want to hear another word about Harrison getting credit for the Mavs making it to the finals. He inherited a conference finals team that was on an upward trajectory with an MVP All NBA first team superstar.
Bro u been calling for Nico job all this time it's no way in hell Nico had anything to do with the Luka trade . They are moving the team to Vegas and the league took Luka he didn't trade him so u gone tell me Flagg just came by chance . Get off the weed man!
Honestly, the team still could be okay end of season. Nico wasn't proven wrong as far as winning, only as far as not knowing who the favorite player was.
why are all the top comments 0 likes and then all the top comments are disappearing or at the bottom of the conments? something weird is going on this doesnt happen on your other videos or other channels…?
Come on… Lakers getting the most popular MVP candidate and Dallas n 1 pick. They didn't care that people have a heart.
SELL-THE-TEAM.
Next episode. "Mavs first game after Nico's Harrison's firing".
If Patrick Dumont really means to start healing process, he should publicly apologize to Luka, Dirk, players, employees, fan base. Without his apology there will never be peace.
No one should feel even remotely bad for Nico the GM or Nico the Human. He brought it all onto himself by being and arrogant, pompous, no self awareness, asshole for the past 2 years, and Nico strictly moved throughout life with his ego rowing the boat
I want to see a podcast pretending that we never got cooper Flagg, so we can see what life is like with Nico’s vision. Cooper Flagg was NOT apart of Nico’s vision
Something I can never forgive Nico for is that HE is the one to give up multiple first round picks to build a team that is a horrible fit for a 33 year old unathletic power forward who can’t shoot and whose worst ability is available. Why give up those picks for pj and gaff when his goal was to get AD in dallas
Clutch games….
Dallas has played competitively basketball UNTIL the last five minutes of the game. The team has no closer and in this league without a closer, you will lose a ton of clutch games. I'm predicting Dallas to play in the most clutch game while also having the most losses in such games. This is going to be a long season. The Bucks game was brutal.
Bro. Stop acting like you’re sure of everything. You’re not. You don’t know what happened.
Are yall beating the Suns tonight or no?
I mean folks blaming a guy who was following the lead of the GM. I can’t imagine Patrick having watched Mavs basketball on the regular.. so this guy comes in with his idea and this green owner said yes.. he’s trying to mend it now 🤷🏼
Now we have to stop going to games. So the team is moved to Vegas or stays in Dallas under new ownership. Either one is fine because this situation with this ownership is not tenable.
You forgot the part where dumont did not want to pay Luka all that money!!!!!!! Nico was definitely scape goated!!!!
if dirk becomes the gm then luca is coming home baby!!
This team is't young
nico harison the true superstar of lakers 😂
I like how you can faintly hear "Fire Nico" in the intro,😂
