"You could make an argument they're the most skilled backcourt ever. [Luka Doncic & Kyrie Irving] are amongst the most skilled backcourt players to ever play the game."
Agree with @JCrossover? ๐ค
I know everyone is excited about Nico being fired. But this whole shit just pisses me off even more. You traded Luka, a generational player, for such a bullshit return. He was supposed to be a Maverick for life.
At the time, the 64-18 Suns had just came off a finals appearance, and Luka hadnโt made it out of the first round before that season. The Mavs were down 2-1 in the series, and the Suns were in full front running mode. That series is when we got the โLuka Specialโ from Devin Booker. Mavs pushed it to 7 games, and Luka walked into their building and ended the game before halftime, scoring as many points as the Suns entire team that first half. One of the most special playoff performances Iโve seen.
