The Mavs are on fire after the Dončić trade. Don’t expect them to put it out

66% Informative
Luka Doni's trade to the Lakers has been described as the most shocking, and perhaps worst, in NBA history.
The trade destroyed Mavericks culture, the team’s relationship with their fans, and any chance of a return to the NBA finals is gone.
Owner Mark Cuban deserves some blame for the current mess.
But instead of Cuban , we have Adelson, Dumont and Harrison , who have set the Dallas sports world ablaze with a single trade.
Fans who have expressed discontent have been thrown out of the arena.
Owner Mark Cuban has been booed out of his regular seats at the Mavericks but obviously though he could find some peace watching SMU play Pitt .
Harrison was fortunate enough to inherit Doni , Brunson and Porziis when he took over. None of them remain. He fumbled all three , letting them go for a pittance in return.
