But is that how it really went down?
It’s no secret that the entire sports world is shitting all over Nico Harrison.
So what might help?

Getting it out to the public that, actually, this wasn’t Nico’s idea.
In fact, he was forced into it by their bozo owner.
Ladies and gentlemen, that’s Damage Control 101.

Technically, part of the GM’s job is to take the hits for the owner.
Every bad decision they make, you take the heat.
Surely it doesn’t change how anyone feels, but it is an interesting wrinkle.
That doesn’t exactly feel like a coincidence.
I think we have to side with Shams here and give Nico the benefit of the doubt.
I think he actually got forced into it by their bozo owner.
That’s what makes you feel like this was ownership the whole way.
As a Mavs fan, it’s not like this makes the situation any better.
In the end, there are no real winners here.
Hey, where I come from, we call that progress.
