Everyone knew from the moment the Luka Doncic trade was reported that the Dallas Mavericks had lost the trade. What has been most difficult about the year since has been how Anthony Davis and the team are continually introducing and snuffing out hope in a roller coaster of emotions for Mavericks fans.
The Mavericks just hosted the Golden State Warriors and took them down despite a big game from Stephen Curry. It was the Mavs' 19th win of the season, and it came from an ensemble performance as Dallas was down its two max players and all three of their rotation centers.
