More importantly, a much needed change of head coach with the departure of Rick Carlisle whose been here 13yrs.
Hired NBA players well liked coach, former MAVS star Jason Kidd.
Hires former Nike Executive Nico Harrison as GM who many teams have tried to hire. He is also very close to several NBA Superstars and agents.
These moves alone position Dallas front and center to attract Star Players for years to come. To help arguably the most prolific young Superstar in the foreseeable future, Luka Doncic.
In fact, said veteran stars are already taking notice...

Eh....disagree with you here. That front office is in turmoil right now. I actually used to be a pretty big Mavs fan (have met MC a few times) and still follow them but kind of switched over to the Bucks the last few years after Dirk retired (I live in Wisconsin). Kidd was not very good as a coach here even though I loved him as a player both times with the Mavs. He is definitely a downgrade from Carlisle and Donnie Nelson was the closest person to Luka....so that was a downgrade, too.

This isn't to mention the rumor has been the real one calling the shots is that Volgaris guy who MC hired out of professional gambling. At this point, I don't know that Luka stays there. A month ago, it was a given he would stay.
