Those franchises rushed their rebuilds and never won with their superstars (unless they returned years later). Wemby is a unique situation. That org had the #11 pick and then a generational #1 pick (similar to Mavs), but then they shamelessly tanked for two more seasons and got the #4 pick and the #2 pick (not an option for the Mavs). They also had a bundle of picks they could use for a big trade (something else the Mavs don't have).
I'm not saying its impossible for this team to be contending during Flagg first contract. I'm simply saying I don't think the FO should be operating under the mindset that it their best window to compete.
Are you always negative? You act like the Mavs are in a terrible situation. I’d argue they have steadily improved their situation ever since the Luka trade.
My god. Just let them work.
