And if they break up, and she wants a share of his moolah, she'll quickly find out the same.
I don't see any advantage in quibbling about whether one could consider him married in some more spiritual sense. The point is that, even if the Mavs come up with a decent strategic plan, ultimately, whether Luka stays here for all or most of his career is not something the Mavs have total control over.
The previous poster posed a question to the effect of whether he was being a little crazy having angst over whether Luka will leave in four or five years. Luka may really want to stay. Or, he may want to move on for reasons not reflecting on the organization. Ergo, the poster is not crazy, and we should enjoy Luka as much as we can while he's here, since tomorrows are inherently not guaranteed.
Not intending to make a prediction way or another, as, this far in advance, it's unpredictable with any substantial degree of certainty.
