Mac Engel from the Fort Worth Star-Telegram joined Shan & Bobby today to break down the chaos surrounding Nico Harrison’s recent press conference. Mac then talked about the public backlash over the Luka trade, why it hit Dallas fans so hard, and how the city connects so deeply with players like Luka and Dirk. He also gave his take on Patrick Dumont’s ownership and what might be next for Nico and the Mavs.

00:00yes and uh i thought he handled it as best he could but i got killed for giving him props for
00:22it being better than the last interactions people can't you know nowadays especially on social media
00:27you know two things cannot be true at the same time but i thought he tried to adjust yesterday for the
00:32better so did i i totally agree with you and i think the problem is the answers aren't good
00:37no one likes the no what i mean is no answer is is good and and to me the flaw and i'm sure you guys
00:45have talked about it a lot this is basically a three-year window and year one and year two of it
00:50are basically gone because the player that is the second most important piece to this
00:56suffered a major injury and now year three of it these guys are going to be 35 and 34 years old
01:01i can't think of championship teams built around 35 and 34 year old guys maybe it happens and then if
01:08they go out and get kd it's going to be some aarp aau convention and i just i'm not seeing it and i i
01:16i'll give them there's one part of this i'll say and i said it from day one you give me a team with
01:23a healthy anthony davis and kyrie irving with those other guys that's a team that can win a title
01:27they didn't get the team but for what a half yeah and we're not going to really see it again
01:32in exchange for in exchange for luka dodgich
01:35mac angle four star telegram here on 105 through the fan i want to go back to his answer to your
01:39uh of your question over not realizing the luka love should we be outraged by it reads as many
01:48things in life it reads a lot worse than the actual sound or did you think while he was answering it
01:54oh my gosh you're going to get destroyed for this or was he just trying to say i know luka was loved
02:00i just didn't know that there would be near riots i want to give him credit for that one in terms of
02:06that what you just said i knew he was loved i didn't know they were going to be picketing yeah you
02:12know i mean i think it's like a lot of decisions that you make you kind of brace for one scenario and
02:17you're like okay i know this is going to be bad right you know the breakup's going to be bad oh
02:21i didn't know she was going to burn my house down
