Speaking of being fired or, or injuries, well, let's just talk about this one because we've been waiting for this to come down. I don't know, since the day he traded Luca. Uh, that is Nico Harrison being fired as GM of the Dallas Mavericks. And, and just basically, it was interesting because like Shane's reported this 30 minutes before the meeting. So how about Nico Harrison waking up to hearing that you're gonna get fired. Before you get fired, but anyway, folks. It became a toxic environment in Dallas. I went on with Kevin Walsh, literally the day before he got fired on, on GDT. And I said, They can't move Anthony Davis until they fire Nico Harrison. And there have been reports coming out of the media. That the Dallas Mavericks players were basically rather play on the road than at home. Think about being in a tight game as a basketball player and having shooting a free throw and your own fans are yelling to fire Nico Harrison. Once that happened, they had to let him go. Now, there's been talk, Dirk Nowitzki made some comments on Amazon over the weekend, uh, about the role that he kind of pushed everybody out. There was rumors that Mark Cuban didn't have much of a say, and then, you know, obviously with the move. Let me tell you this right now. Nico actually deserves a ton of blame. But don't tell me they traded Luca without clearing it with the owner. Did Nico do a bad job? Yes, but so did the new owner of the Dallas Mavericks. And interesting now because now, Mark Cuban is being brought back into the fold in helping make some decisions. Speaking of fired, what we had obviously a GM get fired, but now let's get to Willie Green, who was let go and head coach of New Orleans Pelicans after a horrendous too intense start, a Pelicans team that is amiculpa. I thought that this team was going to be better cause I didn't think it could be worse. Well, it is. The Joe Marry hurt. Zion hurt and battling a little bit with Willie Green. But here's the part that doesn't make sense to me. You fired David Griffin at the end of last year. You're bringing Joe Dumars to be the new head of basketball operations. Then you let Willie Green come back as a coach. So why are you firing a GM but keeping the coach, a coach that was already on thin ice made no sense to me as a basketball observer or obviously the host of this show. So now they get rid of Willie Green. Here is the interesting thing of note that you must know. Do you know that the Jonte Murray trade, their first round draft pick in the 2026 um uh NBA draft? Goes to Atlanta. And it's unprotected. So now, if you're New Orleans, like, you can't blow it up. I mean, I guess if you could try and trade Zion, but watch out for the Pelicans because Atlanta is licking their chops with a chance of getting possibly a top 5 pick in a loaded 2026 NBA draft.
