I'm absolutely amazed how people read things into something. Vlade is the guy that just fired Joerger and Williams. If anyone was showing the world who was in charge, it was Vlade, whether you agreed with his decision or not. Lets remember, he fired his assistant, and up to now, he hadn't hired a replacement. So bringing Dumars on board isn't a big surprise. It was just a matter of time before he hired someone to fill the vacancy.
