It's still obvious that Rick was the problem though. Talk about a f'in ego. Love that he made up that Luka and DSJ didn't get along. So DSJ going on hiatus was basically justified because he had a nut job coach making up that Dennis and Luka had issues. Yikes.

And all of the drafting issues are because there are too many chefs in the kitchen. So tired of hearing about who wanted who when there should be one guy making the final decisions.

But this is the most damning...."It wasn't really about how Rick treated Luka," a Mavs player on the 2018-19 team said. "Luka hated how Rick treated other people."

So we could have lost both KP AND Luka had Carlisle stayed. And Cuban wanted to keep him! Good lord...

Good riddance.
