Just as the Mavericks were basking in the glow of a win over the Clippers, along came the hottest team in the Western Conference — the one tied with Dallas...
I can’t say that the Mavs could have exercised patience and used a similar package of players and picks to pluck the true superstar off the Brooklyn roster instead of his star-crossed sidekick. The salaries are close enough that the former Suns’ salaries sent east were very similar to the price in real players Dallas paid —Durant with Luka would have been the ultimate indefensible pairing. It didn’t happen.
took about half a season to recover but was 8-2 over the last 10 games as the Suns’ roster showed signs of life and health for the first time. Now, just as the Mavs are hoping to cash in on a wide-open Western race, the Suns can throw Durant, a two-time Finals MVP, into the mix alongside Devon Booker and DeAndre Ayton.
That’s a big three Dallas can’t match and I don’t think first-place Denver can, either. It’s not a three-man game but we haven’t even mentioned the Suns still have Chris Paul running the show which can be a good or bad thing, depending on the night and how he’s feeling his age.
