An Addendum to the Discussions

A brief note in the wake of what’s been discussed. First, on Friday, when the Durant article was published, Wayne Winston was fired by the Dallas Mavericks. “Not renewed,” you say?

Mark Cuban has like 18 assistant coaches in Dallas, along with what has to be a shockingly extensive staff of terrified personal assistants, ready to do his bidding at any time. He owns lavish sports cars, a movie studio, a television channel, everything you could imagine. In short, Mark Cuban spares no expense. If Wayne Winston was useful even a little bit, he would have been renewed. I say he was dismissed.

Also, Durant’s combined +/- in his past two games has been +33. Make of that what you will.
