Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison placed Jrue Holiday in the same talent tier as Nikola Jokic in an internal evaluation document, according to a team source.

The unconventional assessment of a multi-time MVP compared to one of the NBA's better two-way players exemplifies broader concerns about Harrison's front office capabilities that have persisted throughout his tenure with the Mavericks until his dismissal on Tuesday nine months after trading Luka Doncic.

So Nico doesn?t think much of Euros.  Either that or he?s just completely off the reservation.

I can respect prioritizing defense but that?s just wild

The simplest explanation, which was put forward by many of us at the time of the trade, is that the guy is an idiot.

Nothing that has transpired over the last nine months seems to challenge that assessment.

Says a lot about the folk/s who put him in such an important position, doesn't it.

And of course the biggest (by a landslide) beneficiary of this GMs stupidity is LAL.   Btw, I don?t buy at all that the league conspired to get Dallas the number 1 pick - that was pure luck.  The blatant ignorance of that trade is something that will eat at me for many years. The Lakers will contend now for the foreseeable future - will easily land a 2nd superstar when LBJ is done.
