I would love to learn who the Mavs had eyes for in a Jalen trade prior to his decision not to sign a 4/55 million dollar offer. Was there something there or was is it all fantasy land?
Another reason I hate seeing Jalen leave it is puts the idea in Luka's mind that a brighter future lies elsewhere. Now, I think all players know they can leave via FA or demand trades (if they are at a certain level), but now Luka can see clearly what happens if Brunson and the Knicks find improved success. Seeing one of your guys move on and find success is something the Mavs will need to be aware of. Especially if the Mavs have less success this upcoming season.
