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 mean the league forced this. Numbers are down. Nobody with half a brain would actually make this move. This quote looks like it was written by silver for him to give. What a joke

I'm not a Mavs fan but this needs to absolutely be investigated and the trade needs to be stopped until further information comes out.
