I've got my pitchfork, torch, and grenade launcher! I'm even packing a squirt gun!

As we've talked about a bunch here, it's not as much the motive that is being questioned, it's the return and lack of a competitive bidding process for Luka. No one will ever convince me (or their actual fans) that this was the best deal the Mavs could get for him.

Then the Lakers declare rather publicly that they needed a big to help backfill AD - and voila! - Charlotte suddenly makes Mark Williams available in exchange for inferior players and a draft pick next century!

I'm back on the conspiracy train!

Yep.

Max Christie could develop into an All Star player someday... and the trade would still be lopsided for LA. And... the other elephant in the room is that Davis is SEVEN years older than Doncic who is just now entering what is usually considered NBA prime years.

FWIW AD is just under SIX years older than Doncic but who's counting?

Seems like a good deal for both sides, but the Hawks are another team who seem to be trying to stay in the middle of the league. Not the place you want to be. Either go for it or tear it down.
