This was discussed recently on the one percent better podcast, based on conversations Holder and Keefer had with Ballard.

I doubt that is an accurate representation- Ballard being talked into a move he didn’t like. But let’s say it is. How do you come away from that absolving the GM of responsibility and putting it on the coach. Whose job is player acquisition? The GMs. Whose job was it to hire the coach that supposedly talked him into something he didn’t want to do? The GM. So how the hell is it the coaches fault and not the GMs? It was his decision. And you are claiming he was talked into it by a guy that he hired. Either way that’s a GM problem. What the hell am I missing?

For the record I would expect it was a collaborative effort with the final decision being Ballard’s. At least that’s the way it should have been. If not then you are saying they are more dysfunctional that I believe.
