Time to move on while Luka is averaging 37.1 ppg and Anthony Davis is once again injured. Hopefully things turn around for this franchise. I’m sure Dumont is starting to have regrets for signing off on the trade.

Time to move on while Luka is averaging 37.1 ppg and Anthony Davis is once again injured. Hopefully things turn around for this franchise. I’m sure Dumont is starting to have regrets for signing off on the trade.
25 year old Luka Doncic traded for what now is:
2026 1st (LEAST FAVORABLE of Washington's controlled picks and they have OKC 1st)
2029 Lakers 1st (unprotected from Luka trade)
2030 GSW first (protected)
Max Christie
Khris Middleton's corpse
Marvin Bagley III
AJ Johnson
Malaki Branham
Both Desmond Bane and Rudy Gobert went for more 1st. Really horrible asset management by the Mavs. Unless you believe the draft lottery was rigged and Adam Silver slipped them Cooper Flagg for helping the lakers print money.
As I understand it, Dirk is mentoring him and will be taking a larger role in the organization by next season.
We are so free on cap space that the sky is the limit on who we can now bring.
Luka is history now. So that chapter is closed. At least for me.
Cooper Flagg has produced three straight 30-point games, becoming the first teenager in NBA history to accomplish the feat! Flagg is averaging 39.7 points (.577 FG%, .462 3FG%, .852 FT%), 10.3 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.3 blocks per game over his last three games.
Uhhhm yeah... We're good!
Also MAVS are in the process of building a new Arena / Resort. I may grab season tickets again.
Josh-PA wroteMan that was an EPIC occurrence!Flagg is great, but do you connect Dallas' luck in the lottery directly with the Luka trade?
I'm not much of a Conspiracy Theorist but I will take it either way. Otherwise we were Fn doomed!
Exciting season ahead but i am still incredibly frustrated at that trade, mainly because it happened right before i moved back to Dallas!
