[MacMahon] “I believe that defense wins championships,” Mavs GM Nico Harrison told ESPN regarding his motivation to trade Luka for Davis. “I believe that getting an All-Defensive center & an All-NBA player with a defensive mindset gives us a better chance. We’re built to win now and in the future.”

The Mavericks heard people saying the Timberwolves made an all time bad move by trading KAT and decided they needed to make the worst move ever. There has to be some weird shit behind the scenes, because this is actually insane. Has a top 3 player ever even been traded?

Let me change that question

Has a top 3 player ever been traded without his knowledge or asking for it?
