    I’m a GSW supporter and this news somehow is soooooo satisfying! I hope the only company hires him is Mcdonalds.

    Thank you so much Sir Nico Harrison!

    Right after that stupid trade Kyrie got injured. You could argue if Luka stays , Kyrie doesn’t try to carry as much as the load , and the mavs repeat a finals appearance. This is actually the worst trade in modern history

    Ima school you lil kids child minded people. The NBA IS RIGGED. If you never noticed the nba pays teams back for things they take in the past. Chris Paul to the lakers didn’t happen. NBA finally paid their debt back to the lakers. Happens to every team. Tell me I’m lying?

    He got used. Ownership wanted Luka in LA because they get way more $ from shared revenue. If Chicago is good this year Nba gonna bank. If I’m Charlotte or Atlanta, a team that needs serious help, I’m bringing him in. He did just build a finals team

    The No.1 overall pick looking horrible pry didn’t help

    bring mark cuban in, his interview the other day saying “i didn’t understand the luka trade and i still dont get it” is partly why they fired nico today anyway

    Scapegoat

    SAS is a racist. Says Luka can’t be the face of the NBA because he’s foreign. Victor is also foreign but he can be the face because he’s black.

    As a Lakers fan, I still can’t believe or understand how this trade ever occurred. It’s a blessing for Lakers fans but an absolute CRIME that the idiots in power pushed Luca, a top 5 generational talent out the door for a broken down AD (no shade, just facts).

  13. @meow7331

    November 11, 2025 at 9:48 pm

    its crazy that only 1 incompetent employee can bring your billion dollar organization down 😂😂 dont they have a rule that at least trading your best player upto 3rd best players should at least needs an approval from a coaching staff?

  14. @andrewsadikin5226

    November 11, 2025 at 9:49 pm

    That’s an insult to AD who has been traded directly with Luka + Cooper Flagg as the trade give Dallas a pick for the lottery that draft Cooper.

    Thanks to harrison. Lebron can have load management and take unlimited vacations to cancun with his family and not worry about losing. 😅

    Whether they intended for Nico to act as a scapegoat or not, this was a move that had to be done.

    Dallas fans are rightfully pissed and short of getting Luka back somehow (or AD + Kyrie + Flagg somehow winning a ring this year), there’s literally nothing they can do to fix the situation. They actually ran their whole business to the ground. Firing Nico was basically a necessary first step if they ever wanted to regain some sort of positive sentiment.

    Luka is the face of Nba not wemby

    Load of BS. The NBA is absolutely RIGGED!
    The NBA wanted the Lakers to have a star to replace Bron, so they made sure the Lakers got Luka, and in return, they gave the Mavs the No.1 pick.
    RIGGED!!!!!!

    shams think we dumb lmao. The owners signed off on it. Nico not at full blame

  20. @joemkweli

    November 11, 2025 at 10:05 pm

    I would have only traded Doncic for Victor Wemby, Nobody else. Not Giannis, Not Jokic, Not Shai, Only the 21 year old Phenom.

  21. @PatrickAlonso-w3y

    November 11, 2025 at 10:05 pm

    Did anybody check the $$$ under Nico’s mattress?? Obviously he got a lot of money for that BS!!

  22. @tonybayarea

    Dallas needs to blow up their roster and trade everyone except Cooper Flagg & Derick Lively. Get younger for the rest of this season and next season. Trade Anthony Davis , Kyrie Irving , Klay Thompson for younger All-Stars and draft picks. Mavs need to start over fresh , have a new roster that had nothing to do with what Nico Harrison built. That’s the only way Mav’s fans will start to forgive Team Ownership for trading away Luka Doncic last season.

  23. @Henry-nv5op

    November 11, 2025 at 10:10 pm

    After 11 games with Kyrie and AD hurt thats a panic move the Mavs ownership has no clue smh

  24. @Orlando-gt6tk

    November 11, 2025 at 10:18 pm

    Dumbest trade in NBA History. Go knicks!

  25. @donnikrasniqi5873

    November 11, 2025 at 10:25 pm

    Now please sell the team. I cannot watch my mavs knowing it’s owned by a war criminal family that funds illegal settlements and arms the violent settlers who terrorizes the Palestinians on thier own land.
