While the Dallas Mavericks trading Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers has been heradled by many as a massive mistake, one who agrees that there was a lack of understanding is former owner Mark Cuban. While the new Mavericks owner in Patrick Dumont takes after Cuban, the latter still gave his thoughts on the franchise-changing move.

After the Dončić trade went down, it became clear that Cuban didn't hold the same power he had wielded for two decades in Dallas.

The Luka Dončić trade continues to confound folks in the NBA world, particularly after he returned to Dallas on Wednesday night and torched the Mavericks to the tune of 45 points in the Los Angeles Lakers' 112-97 win.
