“At 25, they traded probably the best scorer in the NBA. He didn’t know about it.” not only was Anthony Edwards was shocked with the Luka Doncic trade, he also wanted to know why. Honestly, can you blame him? A move like this doesn’t make much sense, and plenty of people are wondering what really went down. Even Draymond Green wants to know.
But not before he puts his own mind to it. One of Green’s first reactions was that Dallas must know something others don’t. He suggested that the Mavericks had inside information, particularly regarding Luka’s calf injury. “Dallas must know something that we don’t know. They must have some Intel or something,” Green explained on The Draymond Green Show with Baron Davis.
Finally, the 4x All-Star expressed his support for Mavericks GM Nico Harrison’s approach to the trade. Drawing on Harrison’s past success in handling challenging personalities like Kyrie Irving, Green believes the Mavericks’ front office is confident in their vision for the team.
“If this ship is going to go down, I’m going down with someone I trust…Yes. Luka is great but Luka was never Nico’s guy.
And now Nico is bringing in his guy and saying I’m gonna swing for the fences and if I fell I fell but I fell doing it my way. And you gotta respect someone who’s willing to take that stance.” Green remarked, emphasizing that Harrison is willing to bet on his own instincts and take bold risks. This, Green argued, is the type of leadership that could pay off in the long run.
But a shocking development about Harrison’s future at Dallas has come forward, which might force the 2017’s DPOY take his words back. Long before this trade even happened, whispers were making the rounds—Nico Harrison might not be in Dallas for the long run. Tim Cato of the ALLCITY NETWORK heard it from multiple team and league sources over the past few months, and now, with everything unfolding, that belief is only gaining traction.
This is a developing story…
