Why The Dallas Mavericks Do The Deal
Well, the Mavericks don’t do this deal if Irving is interested in staying put.
Instead, they’d opt to build around a Doncic/Irving backcourt. That’s their best-case scenario. This is simply better than their worst-case scenario.
After all, Herro is a star-caliber scorer. He’d make good sense alongside Doncic – the Slovenian sensation handles so much playmaking, he doesn’t need much in a co-star besides shot creation.
Meanwhile, the Mavericks could even use Robinson. Yes, his defense is extremely limited. He’s still an elite movement shooter that will complement Doncic in a big way.
