I know this may not be a concern to some of yall considering Luka averaged 34ppg last year, but according to Basketball-Reference, Luka only had 2 dunks last season. Compared to his rookie year when he had 25. He’s only 25 (going on 26). Sure his game may not rely on athleticism, but he does need to get in better shape to avoid these injuries that prevent him from doing anything athletic.
Like i said, luka has been playing pro ball since 16 and he already had overusage/injury problems on the Mavs. Folks might owe nico an apology next year 
Would be crazy if Max Christie continues to dominate

Not anywhere near that explosive anymore
So the fukk what. Anthony Davis is out for a month maybe longer. He got you to a title berth on one leg. You don't trade that for an older, injury prone star and a decent role player that can only guard guards.Like i said, luka has been playing pro ball since 16 and he already had overusage/injury problems on the Mavs. Folks might owe nico an apology next year

Former Mavericks executive goes off on Patrick Dumont over Luka Doncic remarks

Former Dallas executive Bob Voulgaris, who serves as the director of quantitative research, took to The Dumb Zone Podcast to join that crowd in trying to make sense of an abysmal trade. He didn't just drag the trade, though. He was particularly harsh about Dumont as the owner of the club and his remarks on Luka Doncic.
"The people who were critiquing him had no business," Vouldgaris said bluntly. "Those people have not accomplished anything. Who are they to be talking about what it takes to win? That's the part that I found really offensive... You inherited a pretty good roster, generational superstars. Have a little bit more humility in knowing what it takes to win. Nico is in a tough position so I can empathize with him. But this is what we call generational collusion. It's what the Lakers are known for... the free throws the refs are gonna award the Lakers in the playoffs is gonna be the stuff of legends.
"But the owner, this guy is like the definition of... He married into money. This guy does not look like he's ever denied himself the luxury of an extra meal
. So for him to talk about what it takes to win and to reference Shaq as the ultimate example is just so tone-deaf. Obviously, you managed to marry into this amazing family that has a lot of money. Great, congratulations.

Nah, I'm just calling bullshyt for what it is. Yes bro has conditioning and overuse injuries but it hasn't stopped him from being productive when it matters the most. Then you trade him for someone nicknamed "street clothes" who is currently out with a guess what you fukking retard, an overuse injury

One of the better gamblers of this generation. He's done more than work for the Mavs
