WHY DUMPING STEVE NASH WAS A GOOD IDEA

I once argued that trading Steve Nash was bad for the Mavs but the best thing ever for the league. Turns out, it was good for the Mavs, too.

Slate has a great piece today on the numbers behind the Mavs’ playoff run. It argues that trading Nash enabled Dirk to be the player he should have always been.

A great read.
