I see a lot of people rushing to judgment. The Mavs know something we don’t.

1. Doncic is damaged goods. 
2. Doncic had no intention of signing the extension. 
3. Doncic already planned on signing with the Lakers after next season. 
4. All of the above.

Two days ago, AD was considered a top 10 player and an MVP candidate. Now he’s a bag of chips. OK.

Almost a year ago, Harrison was anointed a genius after all the deadline deals he made. Now he’s a moron. OK.

If Doncic wasn’t playing again this year and if he was going to be a lame duck next year, the Mavs put themselves in the best position to contend during that window. Maybe they should have received another FRP from the Lakers. Multiple picks seems like a stretch, because AD is worth a certain number of FRPs himself.

The Lakers get their replacement for LBJ a year and a half earlier. The difference is that now they can pick Doncic’s running mate, instead of it being AD. They’re also punting on this season, which is a little odd, considering LBJ’s age and where they are in the standings.

I would not assume this was a steal for the Lakers. There are a lot of ifs with Doncic and that organization.
