[duckbutta]

That's the face of a man who know rather he keep his job or not he going to get every single penny owed to him.

Him and Penn State coach need to start a podcast called "Get Paid Old nikka Get Paid"

This organization has gone completely downhill once they traded Grant Williams away. Big mistake.

 

[Spade]

Good riddance you pos!!! Now get Dumont stupidity outta here.

 

[Apprentice]

Let’s be real, dude is a scapegoat. Luka trade don’t happen without the owner’s approval



Very weird shyt going on in the nba

 

[Frump]

Who knew trading one of the most valuable assets in the NBA a 25 year old generational talent for a 32 year old always injured big man might not work out

 

[Slimkid07]

So fire Nico after you greenlit the trade and shat on Luka for months.
Dumont should fire Nico them right after commit seppuku at midcourt.
fukk this franchise.

Of course not, but Nico wanted to trade him and convinced his idiot bosses that it was the right thing to do.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

let's be honest here. the fact that he was allowed to remain employed for 9 months after that luka trade is still

Saving face.

Ownership were desperate they could rekindle something out of this after realizing they made a catastrophic mistake. They had to wait it out for an appropriate period otherwise firing him sooner would’ve made them look more stupid than they already look.

They’d essentially be telling on themselves they got fooled into the worst decision in recent NBA history.

I feel for AD in all of this. He’s collateral damage, ending up somewhere where the fans don’t want him and blame him by proxy, the team won’t be competing for a title anytime soon, forced to pray through injuries due to the pressure of the trade and now will likely be traded somewhere else where he doesn’t want to go.

And like I said at the time the trade happened. If they told me to trade Luka I would have resigned. The bad PR on my name from being involved in that aint worth it.

Now look hes out of a job anyway

 

[KingsnBucs1987]

Feel bad for Luka and AD. Nico was goofy to think they had a win now window when the Mavs rely on somewhat hurt players and then you trade for one of, if not the most injured players in AD.

That was the most boom or bust trade you could of made, especially coming off a finals appearance.

A shame we won’t ever get the real truth about that deal imo. The Grimes for Martin deal was bozo status as well.
