Since the title in 2011 he has been on a mission to bring in the biggest names in the NBA so that "HIS" Mavs are the "cool" franchise. Meanwhile, teams like Denver have just focused on getting better talent by all means necessary. Including this crazy thing called the draft. Granted, the Mavs have been getting some gems in the draft as of late. But, I have a feeling Cuban would trade Hardy and Green in a heartbeat for a year or two with 39 year old LeBron.
That's just not a winning strategy. The teams built in that manner also aren't sustainable. With smart team building Luka could have a team like the Nuggets have built around Jokic.
I remember when they traded young, athletic Devin Harris for washed-up, slow Jason Kidd.
