Game 59 Now A Game Thread: Mavs(31-27) at Lakers(34-21), 9:00 PM Central Time

[WildArkieBoy]

This is not a game thread, although the Mavs are playing the Lakers in Los Angeles Tuesday @ 9:00 PM Central Time.

This is also not an advertisement for the Sands Corporation AKA the Texas Destination Resort Alliance that keeps showing up in ads on YouTube, "trying to keep money in Texas," "supporting our schools," with no mention of gambling. (OK, the Adelmans have money for ads, wisely saving themselves Supermax money on an overweight pseudo-superstar.)

All I'm seeking is your honest emotions watching Mavs vs Doncic.
  
We all watched Steve Nash play against the Mavs, but this seems different.
  
I'm wondering too about Luka's emotions.  Like others, I sensed he was shocked at the trade, perhaps a little hurt, but I have no way of knowing for sure beyond 77 years of observing people.

Personally, I'm torn.  I want this newly fabricated Mavs team to do well, but I want Luka to get past the initial shock and be himself.
