The Mavericks are at the bottom of the Western Conference with 2 wins and 7 losses! Cuban is dissatisfied and Harrison is ridiculed or fired

On November 9, the Mavericks currently rank at the bottom of the Western Conference with a record of 2 wins and 7 losses. They have lost to the Wizards, who are currently 1 win and 8 losses, and the Pelicans, who are 2 wins and 6 losses. They also almost lost at home to the Pacers, who are now 1-7.

Data website StatMuse shows that the 26-year-old Doncic's blocks this season actually exceeded the Mavericks' wins. The five-time All-Star has blocked three shots so far this season, and the Mavericks have only won two games.

"Fun fact: Doncic has blocked more shots this season than the Mavericks won. Defense wins championships (Note: This was the reason why Harrison traded Doncic in the first place)."

The Mavericks' current offensive efficiency is at the bottom of the league, and there is a clear gap with other teams. ESPN reporter McMahon said in a podcast that such a disastrous start has caused all parties in the league to question whether president of basketball operations Nico Harrison may be fired early.

"A legitimate question right now is: Is Nico Harrison's job in serious jeopardy? It's absolutely a legitimate question," McMahon said. "Obviously, Mavericks fans have been hoping for an answer to that question since early February. I don't have a definite answer right now — that's all I can tell you. But it's definitely a legitimate question. Question. When you talk to people around the league who follow the Mavericks, this is the first question they ask. (Harrison) took the risk to complete one of the most unpopular trades in NBA history."

As McMahon pointed out, Harrison has been under scrutiny since his shocking decision to trade the team's core Doncic to the Lakers in exchange for thick eyebrows.

Team reporter Tim Cowlishaw believes that now that the Mavericks lineup is poorly suited and plagued by injuries, and Doncic is in hot form with the Lakers, it is time for team owner Patrick Dumont to listen to the voices of the fans - fans have been chanting for Harrison to be fired since the deal was completed.

The two iconic figures of the Mavericks' past have both expressed their dissatisfaction -

The Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki, who is now an Amazon Prime analyst, did not shy away from talking about the team's poor start. "I feel bad for Mavericks fans, it's been a disastrous start. Obviously, the team has holes at the point guard and playmaker positions... and problems in creating shot opportunities and finishing shots. They can't shoot, they can't organize the offense... no one can hit the shot. It's so uncomfortable to watch a game like this."

Mark Cuban, the team's long-term owner and still a minority shareholder, talked about the team's plight on a radio show. "You know, I am not satisfied with the composition of the team's lineup. I feel that our lineup is unbalanced. There is insufficient depth at the point guard position, and there are not enough players to create shooting opportunities for teammates. So I didn't expect us to start with an unstoppable 8 wins and 0 losses, but I also didn't expect it to be 2 wins and 6 losses (note: Cuban's record during the interview)."
