Episode 4 | Rebuilding A Kingdom (DAL Mavericks)
Every Generation, Needs A King; This Adage Rings True In A Sport Like Basketball, Where We've Seen How One Transcendent Talent Can Change The Landscape Of The Entire League, While Often Building A Legacy That Reshapes The Narratives Of Multiple Franchises; Bill Russell, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon, Tim Duncan, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant & Kawhi Leonard, Have All Led A Team/s To Multiple Championships, While Staking Their Own Claims For The Title Of Greatest Ever... A King Without A Throne (A Ring), Isn't Considered A King, By The Rather Perplexing Standards Set By Today's Basketball Analysts, Fans & Commentators - Luka Doncic Has Been Handed A Kingdom, That Has Had Prior Success, Under It's Previous King, And He Will Have To Go One Better Than Dirk, If He's To Become The Greatest Every Dallas Maverick King - The Pressure Of Leading An Underdog Side Seems To Fit Luka To A Tee, As A Blue Chip Prospect That Was Slept-On By Many Experts Leading Up To The Draft, Luka Has Grown Into The Best Overall Player From His Draft Class, While Quickly Establishing Himself As An All-Star Caliber Player, Who Can Regularly Compete For MVP Honours, And NBA Title's For Year's To Come.
The Onus Is Now On Coach Rick Carlisle, GM Donnie Nelson & Owner Mark Cuban, To Build A Team Around Luka, Which Affords Him With The Optimal Platform To Really Give It A Go, In A Western Conference That Will Remain Competitive For The Next 3-4 Year's, Before Potentially Opening Up For A Team To Dominate Again, After The Warriors, Lakers, Rockets & Clippers Inevitably Have To Fall Back To The Pack, Due To Age Catching Up With Their Current Star Players, Leaving A Window For Dallas To Potentially Win Multiple Wins On The Trot, After Having Being Battle Tested Against Some Of The Best Players In The History Of The League. Trading For Porzingis Was A Great Start, One That Immediately Catapulted Dallas Into A Playoff Conversation... Now The Pressure Is On The Mavs Think-Tank To Cook Up A Few More Moves, That Provide Their 2 Young All-Star's With A Supporting Cast That Compliments The Production That Dallas Is Aiming To Put On The Main Stage, When It Matters Most - Two Equally Yoked Star's May Be Enough To Make You Competitive In This League, But You Still Need Complimentary Guy's In All The Other Positions, Plus A Few More Pieces Coming Off The Bench, To Be Good Enough To Have A Chance Of Winning It All.
The Talk Of Trading For Giannis Has Been Rebutted With Rumours Of A Free-Agency Pitch Next Off-Season, With Views Of A Potential Sign-And-Trade Move Centred Around Porzingis, And Whatever Other Assets Dallas Would Be Able To Get To Give Milwaukee. Oksalayo, Dallas Can't Afford To Stand Still In This Pivotal Time, We Explored Two Scenarios, With Various Trades / Signings, That Would Potentially Make Dallas A Win-Now Team, That Either Fast-Tracks Their Timeline To Catch-Up To Giannis & Lure Him Over Next Season, Or Build Around Their Core Guy's, And Open Up An Even Longer Window For Themselves, With Younger Guy's That Can Still Grow Together.
