Mavericks' explosive Nico Harrison firing comes with silver lining he'll hate

The 2025-26 Dallas Mavericks season continues to be a rough one. All the energy surrounding Cooper Flagg's NBA debut was ruined when the San Antonio Spurs blew out the Mavericks on their home floor. Now, the Mavericks are at the bottom of the Western Conference with a 3-8 record.

Of course, most of the blame for the Mavericks this season is falling on Nico Harrison. The "fire Nico" chants and hatred for the Mavericks' general manager weren't going away. Now, they will peel off a little as Patrick Dumont finally pulled the plug and fired him on Tuesday morning.
