Yeah, so much of how the trade is ultimately judge will actually depend on not only health of Doncic and AD but the health of the respective rosters they play on.
Doncic if he really takes this to heart and shows up fit is no question a dominant force that can take over a game offensively and just needs to hold his own defensively to have his team contending for chips.
Dirk was never a great defender as recall, but worked hard enough that he anchored a finals contending Mavs roster and finally came away with the franchises only ring.
AD has a *ring (covid has to deserve an *) but to really prove that he's more than the sidekick to King James championship, his legacy and value in the deal will need a healthy Mavs roster around him.
