At this point, the general manager of the Mavericks/dishonest agent of Chaos Nico Harrison could be the only person on Earth who does not believe that exchanging Luka Doncic to the Lakers was One of the most disconcerting decisions in the history of the NBA.
From the beginning, all I thought there had to be more in the story of what Harrison simply preferred Anthony Davis, a 32 -year -old injuries, 25 -year -old generational talent. Doncic must have demanded a deal. How else could this be explained?
The star of Count Minnesota Timberwolves, Anthony Edwards, among which are totally bewildered by commerce.
“They say that nobody knew about the trade. That is crazy,” Edwards said while sitting in his locker after the defeat of two points of the wolves against Sacramento on Monday. “At 25 [years old]They probably changed the best scorer of the NBA. And I didn’t know. There is much more dig that someone has to do to find out why they exchanged it. Because you not only change it at 25. He was only in the final. I feel bad for Luka, man. “
As Details about trade have continued to ariseIt seems that Harrison, as impossible as this is to believe, really just wanted to be outside the Doncic business. He did not even buy maid and was willing to take what can only be described as an extremely weak package in return (how oversight Rob Pelinka reduce it For only a future Draft selection?) For a guy who, in the first seven years of his career, has already made more NBA teams that Stephen Curry.
Even in a world where you can reasonably argue that The mavericks are still well, if not a little better, position To compete for a short -term championship with Davis, no one can understand the decision to potentially give another decade with one of the best players we have seen, which has not even hit his best moment, however, at the head of his franchise.

On Monday night, Edwards was asked 23 -year -old, or was about to be asked if seeing someone in the state of Doncic is even exchanged to a player of his age, caliber and an organizational position on alert. He prepared a cheerful fourth to the president of Basketball Operations of Minnesota, Tim Connelly of Edwards.
“Everyone reports,” Edwards released half the question before joking about his own safety in Minnesota. “I’m afraid. Tim, if you’re going to change me, let me know, Dawg. When Luka was exchanged, anyone can be exchanged.”
Edwards speaks for everyone here. Although all these details continue to suggest that Harrison was in a solo mission to exchange maid, it still seems that there has be more in this story. If there is not, then Harrison is better to expect the Mavericks to comply with what cannot have more than 5-10% chance of winning a championship. Honestly, I don’t even think that excuses to give Doncic during the next decade. Its relationship and connection with Dallas has left a larger hole than even a Larry O’Brien trophy can fill.
