I’m very surprised about this. I assume New Mavericks president Masai Ujiri wanted his own coach

Keep chipping. Miriam Adelson needs to go.
IZZY_PLUM@reddit
Careful loool
Far_Mistake9314@reddit
Not surprised honestly, More fall out from the Nico disaster. Completely starting over…..
Ganjarannasaurus-Rex@reddit
Not completely - still got Michael Finley on staff
Far_Mistake9314@reddit
Update, He’s out too
packees@reddit
He needs to go too. Taking a beer from Luka was enough for me.
Dmtz214@reddit
Word. Let the guy celebrate a win
remarkable_in_argyle@reddit
If only we could part ways with the Adelsons.
MacRapalicious@reddit
The only way I’m coming back
kushite@reddit
Haven’t watched a game and haven’t bought Mavs merch since the trade. Billionaires only know dollars.
_DOA_@reddit
I’m gonna need ‘em to trade for Luka, too.
civil_beast@reddit
Keeping up with the Joneses
JustRepeatAfterMe@reddit
Should someone offer him a nice egg in this trying time?
medisamurai@reddit
lotta people thought he might have been as responisble for the luka trade as much as nico.
either way dude has never been much of a coach. never bad losing a wife beater in general
Altruistic-Carry-684@reddit
I mean, a GM doesn’t have that much leeway on personnel moves, particularly if it’s the franchise guy. Please believe, they knew and green lit the trade. Nico was just a front facing mark for everyone to direct their ire at
too-fun-sidekick@reddit
Actually his wife beat him.
SMILESandREGRETS@reddit
So who beat who??
etiennegeaux66@reddit
Mavs moving to Vegas, folks
TheFeedMachine@reddit
Mavs will not move to Vegas. DFW is the 4th largest metro in the country and is poised to pass Chicago in 10-20 years to be the 3rd largest metro. Vegas is the 29th largest metro at about 28% of the population if DFW. The NBA also just approved the starting phases of expanding to Seattle and Vegas a few months ago. Those cities will get new teams. If there is anything, it will be some sell the Mavs to buy the expansion team.
civil_beast@reddit
Replace dfw with Seattle, and Vegas with Oklahoma City… and you’ll realize that though this appears reasonable, don’t be so certain until the bond money is signed over to the architect.
TheGringoOutlaw@reddit
I feel like this rumor would have more weight if the Mavs didn't win the draft lottery last year and got Cooper Flagg. Even then they'd probably win the draft lottery this year since they wouldn't even sniff 20 wins without Flagg.
oakcliffian@reddit
I've been saying that when Mark Cuban sold the team, but whatever
TheChartreuseGoose@reddit
Been rooting for this from the beginning. I don’t want any connection to this franchise anymore outside of Dirk. Start from a completely new expansion.
ClaustrophobicMuch@reddit
Then you weren’t paying close attention. So I don’t know what to tell you 🤷🏻♂️
detox02@reddit (OP)
I was but k
ClaustrophobicMuch@reddit
Then you shouldn’t be “very surprised”
detox02@reddit (OP)
Then shouldn’t you“know what to tell me”
tebchi@reddit
Assuming Sweeney is the next guy. Bulls were pursuing him and I think they made this move with him in mind
detox02@reddit (OP)
Probably. He’s currently preoccupied but he will be available soon
mental_midgets@reddit
Another dumb move
JayWo60@reddit
Another Dallas area team that I used to care about. Mavericks now join the Cowboys and Rangers as irrelevant in my life.
shwampchicken@reddit
Nothing matters until they part ways with ownership
ClaustrophobicMuch@reddit
That’s not how this works.
PrimordialAHole@reddit
Yeah, need to cut off the head of the monster
Comfortable-Spell-75@reddit
Good.
ffz_@reddit
Fucker def had a roll in trading luka. Good! Fuck him! Fuck the owners!
BowzerBigBeanBurrito@reddit
Good Move, now Kyrie prob gone
MacRapalicious@reddit
Surprised he made it this long tbh
CryptoM4dness@reddit
Kyrie only gone if someone is willing to pony up. He’s too valuable.
Shaunosaurus@reddit
He's 34 coming off an injury and a whole year removed from play. He's not that valuable
LostinIKEA512@reddit
The Mavericks died on February 2, 2025.
Right_Bike_5416@reddit
Good. Fuck Jason Kidd. Boo his ass next time he's in the building.
shotcaller09@reddit
sigh....another pitchers duel make possible by our offense
fuelvolts@reddit
Kidd wanted control over ops. He didn’t get it. Not surprised it’s “mutual”. He probably wanted out.
nickgomez@reddit
Good run, best wishes
Luka_Dunks_on_Bums@reddit
Kidd interviewed for the same position that Masai got…..
Thinks_22_Much@reddit
Didn't he make a big deal about the fact he didn't immediately fire coaches with his previous teams?
hot_rod_kimble@reddit
Ujiri found the evidence that's remained hidden from us.
