Famous reporters broke the news: The Mavericks may fire the general manager. Nine months after trading Doncic, fans are still dissatisfied.

On November 10, the NBA regular season continued. The Mavericks had only 3 wins and 7 losses in the first 10 games, ranking second to last in the Western Conference. Marc Stein, a well-known reporter, reported that the rising negative sentiment within the Mavericks has troubled the management, and the team may fire the general manager in the middle of the season.

Talking about the current situation of the Mavericks, famous reporter Marc Stein reported that the Mavericks started with 3 wins and 7 losses, which is worrying, and they may soon have to prioritize issues related to draft picks.

In order to build a competitive team around Doncic, the Mavericks had already given up their first-round picks in 2027, 2028, 2029 and 2030 through trades in exchange for Irving, PJ Washington and Gafford. However, what is shocking is that Dallas suddenly and without warning traded away the face of the team who was regarded as Nowitzki's successor.

While the Mavericks will receive an unprotected first-round pick from the Lakers in 2029, Harrison failed to acquire the Lakers' two other most valuable assets in the trade: Austin Reeves or a 2031 first-round pick. Therefore, moving one of the most attractive trade candidates (like Gafford) for a future asset as soon as possible is a strategy worth seriously considering in order to have another good run at the next draft.

Sources revealed that as the Mavericks have fallen into huge difficulties in fighting for a playoff spot, the rising and almost endless negative emotions surrounding the team have troubled and worried the team management.

Talking about the future of the Mavericks, Stein said: Although Dumont seems to be inclined to give Harrison more time, an inevitable topic is forming among the Mavericks senior management: whether changing the general manager in the middle of the season is the best way for the team to start the post-Doncic era. Although they have just won Flagg with the No. 1 pick, this road to reconstruction is still full of difficulties and obstacles. "

continued to write: If Dumont finally decides that changing the general manager on the spot is the best choice - although it is still unclear who the Mavericks will choose as the long-term successor - the outside world believes that this move is not only aimed at changing the atmosphere of the team and trying to win back disappointed fans, but also based on the consensus that the executive who planned and promoted the controversial Doncic trade should no longer be at the helm to lead the team out of its aftermath.

Speaking of the dissatisfaction of the Mavericks fans, Marc Stein said nine months have passed since the Doncic trade, and given the Mavericks' start (three wins and seven losses), fans' disappointment and anger are once again high. This sentiment even exceeds the situation in February. I have never seen a trade trigger such a strong reaction. The impact of this transaction has lasted for a long time. Although fans hope to turn the page, the story is still affecting the current situation.

continued: The Lone Ranger's original intention of making this deal was to become better, but the result was unexpected. The Lone Ranger's offensive efficiency was very low, almost at a historical low. Although there were many injury problems, the fans did not want to listen to these excuses when the deal came, and Harrison's position may be in jeopardy.
