    Its clear who don't understand ball and keep saying these unrealistic theories. Brunson would not be the NY Brunson we see now because he needs the ball same as Luka so who's going to give up their usage. KP and Luka didn't work because Luka has the ball forever each possession. Flagg and Luka would never because without trading Luka the Mavs wouldn't have been in that position. Because of the trades 2 yrs ago made my Nico it brought Gafford and PJ. Grimes wasn't going to resign that's on record. No one has ever won a chip with the usage rate as high as Luka's never. Why couldn't Luka do the neccessary work while he was a Maverick. Like he's not a grown adult and professional player. All parties played a role in the trade. Let's not act like Luka wasn't breaking down towards the end of each season because of his conditioning and injuries. You'll give him all the praise but none of the blame.

  4. @TomCruise-e6w

    Firing Nico won't change anything. Your final record will still be 10-72. So, what's the point of firing Nico? As long as the overrated Pooper Clogged & AD are still with the Mavs, expect them to remain terrible.

  7. @BamrockO

    I think expecting perfection from a GM is unrealistic. Luka was bad, and KP was disappointing until we made the WCF.

    Christian Wood was a gamble but we could understand the process. Luka is the only move that seemed indefensible to me (I question the validity of Brunson extensions personally)

  15. @johnp2311

    If Luka finally wins an NBA Championship, he better send a bouquet of flowers to Nico Harrison.

  19. @001dpyle

    As the GM you are also responsible for the fans and image of the team. Alienating the fans and turning the image of the Mavs into a joke is on his shoulders and dumbont didn't know any better. This teams offense is terrible

  21. @radz7106

    its LUKA DONCIC! You dont trade LUKA DONCIC! I mean, people would understand if you trade ZION. but LUKA?? Hell to the NO

  22. @thomascvelbar9811

    Nasvidenje.(SLO goodbye) Dumont Dufus ownership is bad. Those were some good times before. It is Mark Cuban's fault for selling out. Mavericks need to move to Vegas, it is cooked for eternity. Move and bring a in new team after exorcism of the entire grounds. Too much bad Karma to last 100 years. Crashing like the Dallas real estate market. Option #2, Sell it back to Cuban for 10 cents on the dollar, and make Dirk the manager.

  24. @twinzl

    That is great news! I hope things turn around for Mavs now. That would be another proof that Nico was the issue.

  26. @deathcare

    I just don't know how the Mavs are going to be able to build around Cooper in the draft unless we get rid of some combination of PJ, Gafford, Lively, and Max. I don't think we would get more than 1 first round pick out of Klay and Street Clothes combined, and since you would probably be trading those guys to a win now team, the pick you would get in return would be late in the first round. I think Kyrie is probably around 1 first round pick, but I would rather keep him as a leader and culture guy. I am thinking that the Mavericks are going to have to trade PJ, Gafford, and Lively, each for around a single first round pick, if we want access to draft capital to use to build around Cooper.

  29. @khristopherhooper

    Nick yall need to hire me to help yall with a run sheet. You had gold for us die hards and you did not capitalize. Isaac said a few pods ago less than a week that when nico gets fired yall would have an emergency podcast and I was looking forward to Isaac getting on here with that same energy he had in that said podcast. Man come on.

  32. @spooky-man-i2s

    NickA is the fattest liar. Kyrie is not "often, always injured" Nick exposes his disdain for Irving. LUKA DONCIC was injured every one of the 7 seasons he was with Dallas and missed every back to back game, missed key playoff games. Not Kyrie. This cretin Nick A sitting there lying trying to rewrite Doncic's history and trying to get rid of Irving and we all know why.

  36. @pwi1234

    Ya guys think Luka will comeback to Dallas after a few years similar to Lebron coming back?

  38. @carlososorio3439

    Also, Finley has been assigned as INTERIM…….wasn't he the guy that snatched a beer from Luka after the WCC game behind doors! What's UP with OWNERSHIP???

  40. @wtrmrkph

    According to some reports Nico's best trade are because of Denis Lindsey. So Nico without that is shit.

  43. @t-rav3493

    Lakers fan here, I’m eternally grateful to Nico for the partnership with the Lakers organization! On a serious note, you have a regular listener in me since the trade, great coverage keep it up!
