Yeah, except an All NBA nod won't open up the supermax now that he's been traded

They just sent out season tickets renewals for next year with an average 8.5% price increase too. Who knows what the goal really is, but I feel bad for that fan base
Would make more sense to do an ownership swap than a move. No way the NBA is going to lose Dallas as a market.
Before things went to hell I was saying that half the league would disqualify itself from consideration and he'll get on the third team by default, but after being presented with a long list of names I threw my hands up and conceded that since All NBA since teams are positionless he'd still be a longshot, he knew it then too.

Really sucks for Mavs fans. What a tough year for them.
Never thought I'd ever feel bad for Mavs fans given all the bad luck we've had against them over the years and Luka but there you have it.

Part of me feels bad for the Mavs because I, for one, never thought we'd see the level of incompetence displayed by Vlade ever again. At least not in my lifetime (or whatever is left of it).
But, here we all are, in 2025.
Vlade made a wrong pick (and did not make it by himself). It was praised as a great draft with 4-5 can't miss players. We know how it turned out. I wanted to draft Luka. But there were plenty of mock drafts that had us drafting Luka and saying "LOLKANGZ going to draft the next Darko".
Nico did something far worse, exchanging a known quantity who they deemed an "injury risk" and "too expensive" for an older, more injured player who makes the amount of money they claimed they didn't want to pay, without even soliciting other offers around the league or receiving fair compensation in the exchange.
I think David Stern would have stopped this trade.

The crazier part is not shopping him to the league. No wonder people have theories on what the endgame is because who in their right mind trades Doncic without shopping him.

Biggest karma would be Fox getting All NBA and the Kings winning the Title this year.
Make it happen Adam Silver!

Yeah, probably. The current Mavs owners may be trying to clear out salary, so the new Dallas owners are not straddled with a Super Max contract, especially if Luka’s conditioning winds up causing him to get a catastrophic injury.

Vlade should be sending Nico a very nice Christmas present every year for taking that massive Luka monkey off his back.

Grizzlies are 5 games up on the Dubs between 4 and 6 but wonder if that's cause for concern. I know we're only a half game from GS but not going to predict we can make up that difference but the Dubs with Jimmy probably can.

So, is it still a flop if he was legitimately injured?
At least no dope of a GM ever pinned his career to the health of Robert Williams III.
