Xu Jingyu: Harrison is the boss who takes the blame. He can’t decide on a deal of Doncic’s level.

Today's commentator Xu Jingyu talked about the Mavericks' dismissal of Harrison on the "Ball Is Back" program.

Xu Jingyu said: "It’s not Harrison’s fault that Doncic was traded to the Lakers. Why do I think the responsibility is not on him? Because since he became the general manager of the Mavericks, he has managed almost three seasons before the trade window. And in these three seasons, His resume can be said to be quite impressive, and I don’t think it would be too much to award him the title of ‘Best General Manager’.

“In those three years, Doncic and the Mavericks could be said to have achieved a ‘triple jump’ like a rocket, going from the edge of the playoffs all the way to the finals.

"Do you think his previous resume is not good-looking? It is very good-looking. Judging from the results at that time, who can say that Harrison is not a competent general manager? Every transaction he made, judging from the results, was actually quite successful.

"But we can make an analogy. In a company, the boss suddenly said, "I quit, let the company close down." Can you blame the company's collapse on professional managers? cannot. Because that's the boss's decision. The general manager has been doing a good job before, but the boss gave the order and he can only execute it. He has no shares in the team and no final say. Loyalty is normal.

"We must make it clear that the general manager's responsibilities have boundaries. Matching role players, introducing supporting actors, and completing transactions like Gafford are all within his authority and can be decided without even reporting to the boss. But the general manager will never have the authority to trade a 25-year-old superstar who has just reached the finals and is on the rise.

" This shows that this transaction was essentially promoted by the boss, and Harrison just took the blame. "
