  • The problem with growing up in Houston in the '60s and '70s was the pro sports franchises always seemed in competition to see who could leave the biggest scar on the city's soul. Losing was bad enough.

The article from MSN discusses comments made by Nico Harrison, the general manager of the Dallas Mavericks, during a press conference. Harrison humorously remarked that the team would "bury themselves in 10 years," a statement that has taken on a more serious tone given the team's recent performance. The Mavericks have been struggling, particularly highlighted by their loss to the Charlotte Hornets, a team with one of the worst records in the NBA. This defeat has raised concerns about the team's direction under Harrison's leadership, especially after the controversial trade of Dorian Finney-Smith, which was intended to bolster the team's championship aspirations but has instead led to a decline in performance. The article suggests that Harrison's light-hearted comment might be prophetic as the team faces challenges in maintaining competitiveness, with critics questioning the decisions made by the front office.
