How bad was the Luke Doncic's contract for Mavericks? Who really "beat" trading?

The Dallas Mavericks threw a bomb on the sports world over the weekend, the trades Luka Doncic on Los Angeles Lakers In a three team agreement Anthony Davis as the center of return packages.

Dallas decision to act in the way a 25-year-old superstar remained even days after trade, but what was equally surprisingly as MAV’s decision to end Dončić’s time in Dallas was their approach to arrangement.

General Manager Mavericks Nico Harrison confirmed that he had approached Doncic’s trading trading until only one other team knew it was available, According to athletics. Such a decision is basically prevented by the competition war for one of the best players in the league.

As the dust began to settle for the agreement, the above personality and contributes to AKS sports sports in Dončić’s move. Here are some noticeable reactions to a trade that still has a lot of scratching heads.

Jason McIntire: Mavericks made a mistake, but their negotiating method was wrong

Like many, McIntire did not like Maverici decided to trade Dončić, believing that they would not meet until a five-year, 345 million dollar extension for which he had right. McIntire did not agree with the notion that MAVs made a mistake in limiting their possible trade partners in this agreement, because Dončić became a free agent in 2026. years.

“It doesn’t work like that,” McIntire said on Monday. “Remember, they had to deliver the harbor somewhere, they could sign. Nobody will try to rent a woman for a year and then just walk it. I actually narrowed it with only three teams could have He went after the port had a war tender. “

Those teams were Boston CelticsThe New York Knicks and the Miami heatWith McIntire, pointing to their great market prestige and property as the reasons for which they could agree with Dončić. However, McIntire does not think it would be wise to create a tender war. “The second league was given the breeze of Luke Dončić in the market, it would be a total disaster,” he said. “The price would come down. The port would check. Kirie Irving And the company would be like: ‘What are we doing? We trade onion? ‘”

Rachel Nichols: Mavericks’ Access was completely wrong

Nichols, however, did not agree with McIntire. She thinks his argument is not held because Lakers at the base received Doncic “Vid invisible”.

“Lakeholders are trading without knowing what the contract would sign a year and a half from now,” Nichols said. “By the way, I think you surveyed most teams in the league, not everything, but most, they would be guaranteed and sexually guided by the port of Dončić,” We can convince him that the place wants to stay. ‘Mavericks did it with Kirie Irving when they were trading for him and they were just three months to convince him. “

Mavericks managed to stimulate the ink on a multi-year-old when it was a free agent 2023. years and gave it to the NBA finals in the next season. Nichols believes that this could happen if Maverica was traded in the second team.

“The idea that Luke could make a list and would not have a recipient that it was not his preferred destination, I don’t really buy it,” Nihols added. “I think the port of Doncic is such a unique talent and an idea that you would be in the order of Toronto. They were like,” Great, we have one we hope to convince him to keep it . But even if we can’t, it’s worth it. ‘Guess what? They couldn’t convince him, and it was still worth it. “

Ric Bucher: Job fan for both teams

Bucher, a long-term Insider NBA, is one of the few who approved the trade of both teams. His reasoning by agreement at the end of Lakers was essentially the same as everyone else.

“We see something we’ve never seen before, which is a team that makes a decision not to include Lebron James And basically, saying, “We have your replacement and turn the page,” Bucher said on Monday. “That’s what this move in getting Luka Doncic did for washers. I think it’s a great move for the washers because Anthony Davis wasn’t that guy, in terms of your alpha and guy you build around.”

As for why he was a fan for Maverike, Bucher actually thinks that this season makes them more “team”. “If you look at Dallas Mavericks and add Anthony Davis to the vehicle that was driving towards the final “I added Bucher.” I look at the Nice Harrison, “I’m not buying that Luka Dončić – may have been able to take us last year, but then he was unable to seal the deal – I’m not sure Will it change. I like the way my team plays. If I can get a guy that I play in the day-level and is one of the best big in the league, I think that could be a difference in winning in conquering the title.

“He was fearless in what happened, and he (did) put everything on himself.”

Paul Pierce: This is a great trade to give up the future of Laker, but LeBron and Luca cannot play together

Pierce was in disbelief when he heard the news, but he quickly realized it was a great way to start planning their future. On the side, the former NBA star had the reserves about two superstars in Dončić and James, playing together in Los Angeles, even suggested a trade in the last part to win another retirement championship.

“At first I was in shock and I didn’t believe in the news,” he said. “It took me a minute to register, because I was like,” I’ve never seen a player in their prime minister, in MVP conversations every year, is traded. “Discharge of final impressions at 25 years old. It’s just something that never happened … so when I was sank – I was shocked,” Why would you do it, “Why would it That’s what you did, “Why would you do that,” why would you do that. Moresho, “Why would Dallas do it than anything?”

“They can’t play together,” Pierce continued. “They demand the ball. They are the dominant white players who dictate all their team. This is a great trade to compile the future because you can start thinking of the construction of Luca now. If I ( Bio) Lakeers, I would trade bron to start early. It will give bron another chance to win the champion, because it will not happen in this team. You can happen in this team. Cleveland. You know, if you can get Evan Moblei back, pairing with Donovan Mitchell and (Darius) Garland … Do it.

“Because I still feel like LeBron had enough in the tank to win the champion, but it just doesn’t happen in La”

Chris Broussard: Not good accessories and leisers will not be candidates

While Doncic and James can dominate the court of confidence, such as Pierce, fears that two shooters will have a difficult time to continue their styles of play. The main worries Broussard is the defense of Lakers, how he believes that the team will now be exacerbated without Davis.

“I don’t think they’re candidates,” he said. “Defensively will be horrible. If LeBron tries to be a great defense counsel again, he’s likely to get hurt and do it. Luca is on the worst counsel of League. He hit more than just anyone, so defensive, They were a lower defensive team with Anthony Davis.

“I think it’s a hard fit because Luca puts” B “into the dominant ball. I mean, he’s more dominant than Lebron was in his premiere, and I don’t think Luca can play with the ball. He will only stand There. LeBron became better to deal with the ball in the last few years, but it is not great even in the fight against the ball. They are not a great shot team. They have no size.

“I think they are now a step back. It’s a chemistry and a flat.”
