The decision to trade Dončić remains viewed as irrational and impulsive. But those who know the Mavs' GM best paint a far different picture.

The Doncic trade was a stunner, but the Red Sox trading Babe Ruth was the biggest blunder of them all. Ruth was 24 and a primary pitcher on three Red Sox World Series title teams.

It's been two weeks since the Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Lakers got together for one of the most stunning trades in history, but it's important to remember that Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis never could've swapped teams were it not for the cooperation of the Utah Jazz.
