Luka Doncic

Congrats to the Atlanta Hawks' GM for his nerd move of swapping Doncic for the frustrating Trae Young just to get the Mavs' 2019 first round pick that's no longer lottery bound. The Hawks are fucked for another decade, all because you had to try to outsmart the room instead of merely doing what made sense.

I hate the Mavs. They had no business getting the best player from where they were picking.

Chris Paul all over again for ATL

But maybe Trae will turn out to be better than ole Marv

The Mavs' pick sitting just outside of the top 5 protection makes the trade a little better for ATL, not that I would have traded Luka for Trae.

Now watch the pick land in the top 3 and Mavs keep it.

I still hate the Mavs for getting away with highway robbery. And no, I don't care that Trae Young gets a lot of buckets. You put Luka on the Hawks and they won't be a 4-16 team.

Good news is, this is all aging very well for the Kings! As usual.

All the teams that passed on him are idiots. I know the Suns were pressured to take the Arizona Wildcat, but then why hire the coach from Slovenia if you're not going to draft the generational talent from Slovenia?
