Defense Championships for Victory: MAVS are still claiming Anthony Davis, Kiri Irving Duet? – Fanovized

If you are going to trade with your 25-year-old, a shift of franchising, a future guard of the first ballot hall, which brought you to the NBA finals a year before … you have to at least get a pretty good return, right?

Well … yes! (I would advise not to do something like that, but obviously I did not warn Mavericks quickly enough, as they just traded Luka Doncic to Los Angeles Lakers), but Anthony Davis is a pretty good return, independently!

GM GM Nico Harrison said ESPN’s “Defense Wins”, which is a principle that I won’t argue with … But Luca Doncic can also help win championships, right?

Now that Davis anchored Mavs’s defense, Dallas has the potential to be defined in the top five. Currently, they are No. 12 in a defense rating, and Davis with one hand raises the ceiling.

However … they also have no longer on Luka Doncic! This is no longer a championship team. Kiri Irving is great. Anthony Davis is great. The roles of this team – PJ Washington, Quentin Grimes, Daniel Gafford, Klay Thompson and more. – They are very talented!

But the engine of this team, one of the best offensive players we’ve ever seen in the League … it’s gone! This is a loss that is really impossible to fill, no matter how spectacular advertising is in the protective end.
