Just looking back at the 2018 draft. You know, the Mavs (Cuban) nearly scuttled the Doncic trade because they (he) absolutely refused to include Wesley Matthews in the deal. You have a team on the hook to give you a potential all time great and you walk away over Wesley Matthews? The Mavs agreed to give up a future lottery pick instead to save the deal. They gave up a lottery pick instead of Wesley Freaking Matthews??? Sheer idiots. It’s not surprising they refused to extend Brunson just a few years later putting the franchise into a pretty desperate situation. With such a track record, what are the odds the Mavs get the trade right this time?
