Dallas Mavericks fans are not letting up on their desire to see Nico Harrison get fired.
On Monday, the Mavs hosted the Brooklyn Nets in an interconference clash at American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas. Things got testy well before the opening tip.
Harrison was seen exchanging pleasantries over an hour before the game. One fan used it as an opportunity to harass the Mavericks exec. After Nico shook hands with a man in the stands, the fan started chanting louder and louder as Harrison walked back into the tunnel.

The fan outrage has only slightly quieted down since Harrison agreed to trade Luka Doncic. It’s gotten to the point that the two-word chant is being echoed at events that have nothing to do with basketball. But the constant clamoring for Harrison’s firing has irked some of the Mavericks’ current players.
The Mavericks entered Monday’s game on a pretty good run. Dallas had won five of its last six games, which also coincided with Anthony Davis’ return from the injured list. But the Nets got the better of the Mavs in their matchup, pulling off a 113-109 upset over the home team.
