So, are we that sure that there's no correlation between Achilles soreness and an Achilles rupture? We can afford losing a few games a million times more than the latter.

Medically speaking, soreness isn't a specific injury. It's just a feeling. There is no history that soreness leads to anything more. 

Now IF the Mavs said achilles tendonitis, or an actual injury to the achilles, then yes you can be worried then. Although rare, achilles tendonitis can lead to a rupture in some cases. However, they have never said anything more than soreness. And despite the limp and grimacing, Luka is running pretty well 99% of the time.
