Thank you all for all the thoughtful replies. There are some good points being made.
The outcome on G Williams is probably my biggest issue. He hasn't really filled any hole. And he's not a trade asset either. Again, a step backwards rather than forward. I hate the idea of again using picks to try to erase a mistake.
But Luka is also a major concern to me. His numbers are great (and should be, given his ball dominance), but the coaching staff sure hasn't gotten him to play hard on BOTH ends every possession, every game. As good as he is, he's very undisciplined, and he's now in year 6. Those are some bad habits being ingrained in his game, and these are years he (and the Mavs) will never get back. The clock is ticking.
