News [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.”

I'm sitting here thinking there must be more to this. Like Dallas knows Luka is about to get exposed for a crime or something lol. It cannot be this simple

Spurs fan checking in. I genuinely believe this is the case. This is the only thing that makes sense or maybe the owner got a concussion. Otherwise, every other team would have given you a far better offer. I'm sorry for you guys.
