The Mavs have been total chumps this off-season, and it seems Cuban is now a financial lightweight by NBA owner standards (or maybe even worse). But Luka is probably the 4th or 5th best player I’ve ever seen going back to the Kareem era. Only the most incompetent front office or an injury could keep the Mavs below 50 wins. In fact, a record that bad would require a historic level of incompetence. I’m still excited about the season. With Luka, the Mavs are finals contenders, so long as they can at least build a supporting cast on the level that Lebron had during his first Cleveland stint. Almost any GM or even an intelligent fan could pull that off.
