Damn my early dreams were Luka joins Dominayton on the Suns after Mavs fail to build a good team, and they win us a title. Now both on the Lakers. What a turn of events.

LOL

Actually, Dončić and Ayton should be a great duo, they just need to put appropriate team around them.

He is still a top 3 NBA center and we are still raging and missing him.

Top 3 centers don't get bought out, to think so is craziness! I think he has value and can succeed in the right situation, but there are 2 teams and fan bases that were happy he left for a reason. Its the person he is and his motor that is frustrating.

Ayton is simultaneously waive-able and the missing piece for a contender /a top Big man in the league /a #1 pick with all sorts of talent and upside, dontchaknow?

Ayton stinks. Nurk stunk even more. Looking back at that trade, it was Toumani for Grayson.... And you can argue it's an even wash with slight advantage to Toumani.

Honestly, I get a special kind of tingle when I see this thread resurrected. Like, I will never be the one to do it but when it happens I know it’s time to pile on DA for the next week :lol:

Now Luka will only win a Championship if Ayton does - further justifying our choice to draft him first./s
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Jokic/Wemby/AD, that's top 3

And then there's a drop off after them: KAT, Mobley, JJJ, Chet, Sabonis, Adebayo, Zubac, Sengun...I can go on and on, guy isn't even top 10

I don't think they're a great fit.Luka excels with high energy/lob threat bigs.Ayton's neither of those things.
