ICYMI: Now is a good time to say that Jordan Davis swatting a FG is on the cover of this month’s SI, and you should buy magazines because they are cool and you can read good articles and look at nice pictures without having to be on your phone.

I've thought the biggest sin of the Doncic trade was simply breaking faith with Mavs fans in the most traumatic and unexpected way possible. There's an unwritten covenant and Harrison-Dumont broke it without understanding they did.

Nico Harrison blew it. He should have known better. But firing him after signing off on the Luka debacle shows that Patrick Dumont and the Adelson ownership group didn’t know better and have no idea what they’re doing. That’s worse
