Well, and I just don't think the guy knows much about basketball and there's this, like all these conspiracy theories. Oh, this is a, you know, the management demanded this because they're trying to depress the value of the franchise to move it to Vegas. Like this is QAnon whack job stuff. Like, no, that's not what happened. Nico Harrison managed up, right?

Nico Harrison convinced Patrick Dumont, a guy who is a year in to having control of an NBA franchise, that, hey, we've got to get rid of this guy. You know, Luka doesn't work hard. Luka's bad for the culture. Supermax would be a terrible investment. He convinced Dumont of that, and he'd earned Dumont's trust because, listen,

The moves that Nico made before the deadline last year, which by the way, at the time, it wasn't like people were talking about the Mavs made great moves around the league. There was a lot of questions about them. But Daniel Gafford and PJ Washington ended up being critical pieces to a team that caught fire down the stretch of the regular season and made a finals run.

But, I mean, Dumont doesn't know much about basketball. That's pretty clear. He also doesn't have a great feel for public speaking.

Sure. And when he when he made those comments, we're talking about it was an interview with Brad Townsend of Dallas Morning News. It was the day after the Anthony Davis's abbreviated Mavericks debuts.
