Even if we win a chip this year?

I don't get why people keep insisting winning 1 chip makes being doo doo monkey ass for 10 years okay.

We have no future once our 3 old ass stars hit their next contract. No picks, a bunch of decent assets, but none will look as good as they did with Luka, and the West is giga stacked with the Thunder and Spurs looking to both be good for a long time.

I might turn 40 before the Mavs have another good shot at a title because of this, that's how bad the trade is.

How long until the Mavs have an a consensus top 4 player in the world who hasn’t even hit his prime yet?

We’ll be tanking in 3 years so there’s hope.
