Usually, when teams go through a rebuild like this one, complete with lottery swings, the 2nd one doesn't work. And when it does, it takes a while to figure out that it has worked, and by the time the team knows it's time to get serious there are like 3-4 Dennis Smith Jr types sitting around. Even if those guys are only used as trade fodder (see Lakers), they help expedite the process comfortably.
Luka was almost too good too soon for the Mavs' own good.
Mavs could have stick to their timeline tbh.
They didn't, and it was their choice. They decided midway through his rookie season that we had enough rebuild.
