Nico Harrison | Exit Interview | 23-24 Season

[@AxelWok]

IN NICO WE TRUST!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@SinaSoh]

HFY!!!

[@SinaSoh]

Love Nico!!! I also love Jim Nill with the Dallas Stars and Chris Young with the Texas Rangers. If Jerry Jones steps aside for Will McClay then I’ll have faith in the Cowboys as well!!!

[@ohsnapahat]

When I saw exit interview I got really scared he was resigning from his general manager position. Glad to know you just meant end of season interview.

[@frederickdelius1106]

Dude same

[@77.billiards]

he just got his contract extension

[@ABCDEGrayCat]

I love what they planning for Lively. I agree to this. Just focus on developing his footwork and post moves next year. 3pt shooting can wait 3-4 yrs.

[@Veyronp87]

fantastic press conferences. mavs are in good hands with Nico at the helm!

[@invisobill2125]

No we’re not. He’s traded away all our assets, wasted money on THJ and Kleber, and the team has little hope of improving more than the other young teams in the west. They have one first round pick until 2030 and no one is coming off the cap space for this coming season. He’s handstrung the Mavs and once again he was bailed out by Luka and to some degree Kyrie. Very unfortunate.

[@RobMoreno-mw5uq]

​​@@invisobill2125yeah for sure lively gaff jones PJ luka green and hardy didnt improve at all and they too old with 20-25 to improve and they didnt bring us to the finals at all .lmao

[@invisobill2125]

@@RobMoreno-mw5uq you’re not thinking deeply about this. The Mavs used ALL of their assets to get it together for this season, while taking advantage of the west being young still and no team besides Denver being championship ready. Thunder have already made a huge move without even trading any of their million first round picks, getting a good perimeter defender in Caruso. The Mavs young guys have limited upside besides Lively. You think PJ and Gafford and Josh Green are going to improve more than Jaylen Williams, Chet, Antman, Wemby, etc? Kyrie is getting older and already showing he’s not the prime reliable Kyrie in that finals dud. The Mavs have not one player coming off the books for this coming season. They have TWO more years of Kleber who is trending toward becoming unplayable for $11 mil a year, THJ almost unplayable at $19 mil a year. There’s no 3 point shooters to speak of on this team. The Mavs blew it by not locking up Brunson for the right price after drafting and developing him, he would have never disappeared in the finals like Kyrie. They also blew it by trading a bunch of first round picks for porzingis and then trading him for Dinwiddie and a bag of chips, they should have rode it out with him. I’m a Mavs fan and it was a great season but they are not in a good position at all to build on this. They need Paul George or Tobias Harris to have a real chance this coming season and they can’t afford PG, and Tobias, who knows if he can show up when it counts. If you think the Mavs can just “develop” from last year and somehow get over the top, that’s just wishful thinking.

[@ThePR224]

@@invisobill2125he made trades that needed to be made and all those players matched or overachieved expectations. He finally got the mavs two good centers and he has a lot to work with now. First rounders aren’t everything, and when you have somebody like Luka, you need to grasp those opportunities to improve the team, even if that means trading picks. They want to win now instead of waiting for development through drafts. People are acting like they traded first rounders for 34+ year-old players. This core is young, and Nico has done a great job changing this core in a relatively short time!

[@brianhenry7983]

​@@invisobill2125💯, Mavs fans are delusional if they think Nico is a competent gm

It's the robbery of the year how this man didn't get GMOY award.

[@kolbin20]

as good as the moves were he didn’t bring in an all star player while receiving first round picks for said all star like steven’s did with porzingis

[@RighteousUncle]

@@kolbin20 When you can go over the cap by 19 mill and the owner is fine paying 39 mill luxury tax like Celtics did last season and more next year, then it gives you much greater freedom. Not sure we should reward incompetent GM's with award for that though. Mavs didn't go over this year and still made finals.

[@EduardoOliveira-zx9ju]

@@RighteousUncle To put things into perspective. Luka/Kyrie made it to the Finals their first year together. Clippers core have been together since the Bubble and no Finals appearance. Joel Embiid has been "Trusting the process" since forever. Mavs overachieved this season.

[@patsfan4929]

Brad Stevens deserved it more

[@RighteousUncle]

@@patsfan4929 I don't know, if we should reward GM's who go into luxury tax so hard, but hard to argue with the end result. Not always works just look at the Warriors they burned over 177 mill to not even make the playoffs. I just find a GM who made timely trades for a team that didn't even make the play-in last season all the way into finals in just a year much more impressive.

[@basedleechaobla]

These were fantastic questions

[@LarryChamberlain-d7g]

Omax needs to play next season. We need more two way players

[@xion649]

[@JorgeRodriguez-re4gu]

@@fringe_minority okay good lol I was worried bro

[@EduardoOliveira-zx9ju]

@@JorgeRodriguez-re4gu Mavs need offense Jorge! We failed to score 100+ points in 4/5 games. We nearly got swept. DJJ isn't it. An off night of Kyrie/Luka is likely a loss

[@ThePR224]

It‘s obvious that they will make a few moves, but the job of a GM is to show the rest of the league that you aren’t desperate to make those moves. The more desperation you show, the less you are likely going to get back.

[@Mama_Terri]

Class Act!

[@emjaay80]

I really like this team. DJJ needs to be signed. Core is here, not long…not even one full year together. I trust Luka, Kyrie and everybody else. And Nico. Go Mavs

[@roneteus]

Chef Nico gets a Michelin star for this season

[@emjaay80]

PJ Washington, Jaden Hardy and Josh Green need to expand their playing with more minutes and stuff that must do in a game and Luka needs to play less minutes in the regular season to be healthier in the playoffs. Without losing alot

[@atepatty6216]

I did not want to mention Luka's weight but he does need to lose some. Other players who gained weight, lost the finals and came back fit the next season were Lebron and Shaq. I do think Luka knows what to do. Go Mavs!

[@LucianoCantabruel]

About saying future changes, he can’t admit any low level player neither say names of possible changes , value for exchange has to be the highest for any THJ or any Kleber to be sellable

[@RobMoreno-mw5uq]

Not kleber ita hard to replace him especially if someone gets hurt like one of the bigs

[@LucianoCantabruel]

@@RobMoreno-mw5uq that’s the point, they need another 6’8’ or 6’9’ tall number four that can defend, dribble attack and make 3s consistently, if they get Advija from the wizards that will make it. But they have to retain Jones Jr. also

[@vicdelrosario4237]

Sir nico,you need one guy that can rebound like dennis rodman,when opponent threw the ball,dennis knew where the ball goes through?

[@plumeria66]

I hope changes will be made. DJJ is not going to become a shot creator or sniper. He is limited as a dunker and is the same player as he was on the Bulls bench. PJ Washington needs to improve.

[@flossyb761]

[@inmysystem007]

Cade for Tim and some lot picks

[@SoulFullOfMe]

Good fella 😊

[@TalalM-qx4ey]

Nico has done great work to earn mavs fans trust, but can’t get complacent now with marginal moves because of a finals run. Offensive rating barely cracked 100 points and celtics showed there’s another level to the game. We need a scoring punch either by adding an all-around wing like Grant, or a skilled 6th man guard like Sexton.

[@OCLProductionz]

Please do NOT settle with our current roster and condition Luka and train his defense🙏🏆

[@johncarloreyes7771]

You should get KCP!

[@justap7164]

I know I’m a month late to this, but we got Klay. Tho I wouldn’t mind if we took KCP because he’s already won 2 finals with the Lakers and Nuggets, playing along side guys like Lebron and Jokic. He’s with the Magic now but hopefully Klay brings us what we need to win in the end

[@thedistant1]

There's money... then there's MONEY!!! There will be no money conversations, great to know 😅! Load up on great talent to put around Luka so we can get back and win it all!!

Squandered a season away. Kidd seems content already winning a ring as a player. We shouldn’t have to watch an opposing team playing harder on defense (Celtics series).

What's with the misleading title

[@Nancy-M745]

The title is not misleading. That’s what every interview at the end of the basketball season is called throughout the NBA. Every team has them. They’re called exit interviews because the season is done for the year until the next one starts that’s all it means.. the other teams that were no longer in the playoffs have already had their exit interviews

Nico, you don't have the talent to win a championship. Get a third star at SF or Luka will walk.
