Even Rob Pelinka couldn't believe the Mavs wanted to trade Luke Doncic to the Lakers
Briefly

The trade between the Lakers and Mavericks, involving Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis, has raised eyebrows, especially concerning Dallas' decision-making. Reports indicate that it was the Mavericks who initiated the trade talks, much to the surprise of Lakers' GM Rob Pelinka, who initially thought the proposal was a joke. Conversations escalated over weeks, despite both Pelinka and Mavericks owner Patrick Dumont laughing at the suggestion, raising questions about the Mavericks' judgment. Ultimately, the Lakers appear to have come out on top in this trade, even with the loss of Davis.
The more we learn about the Luka Doncic-Anthony Davis trade, the worse it gets for Dallas as the Lakers emerge as clear winners.
