Dirk Nowitzki delivers honest, detailed commentary on Mavs firing Nico Harrison

"This move should have probably happened this summer, honestly... This trade just made no sense."

"Don't sleep on this kid."

"Now, I know everybody wants to draw dramatic, sweeping conclusions from a Summer League game in Vegas. I'm just going to warn you: don't do that."

It was "the fourth-largest Summer League audience ever on the ESPN networks."

It's the middle of July, and we get to watch some hoops. That's pretty damn good.

The former ESPN analyst called out the Dallas GM’s revisionist "vision" and questions whether there was ever a real plan at all.

"Last time I checked, we still live in America."

It will be Game 1 of a doubleheader.

"That is not Cooper Flagg, at all, actually."

"What a comp."

"And that's saying something, given the freshmen that Duke has had over the last 30-40 years, maybe even beyond that."

That's a little bigger than what was previously reported.

"Texas is different."

ESPN averaged just 1.88 million viewers for its lottery telecast, making it the least-watched draft lottery since 2006.

"And like I said, I know I'm hurting some people's feelings today. But it's just idiotic."

"Oh get the f*ck out of here. Come on."

"Reverse karma? Irony? Not sure what's happening."

Kevin Negandhi will serve as host alongside analysts Kendrick Perkins, Bob Myers, and Jay Bilas.

"Even though Cooper Flagg should be in high school, I have to wonder — does he have the clutch gene?"

"For those who will take this as a shot at me…"

"He's so good, so early, I must admit, I'm not ruling that out. Not yet."

"Think about everything happening in our country right now. About what it means to be America. 'America first.’ Okay? He’s from Maine!"

"I can tell you one thing, they are most concerned about the Blue Devils winning this game. That is their number one priority."

Duke's national championship hopes may have taken a blow with freshman sensation Cooper Flagg going to the locker room in a wheelchair.
