These are strange days for the NBA, a thriving podcast content farm with a sturdy side business of playing organized basketball games. On Sunday, the Dallas Mavericks traded with Brooklyn for the point guard/chaos agent Kyrie Irving, eager to pair him with their young superstar, Luka Doncic, and see if he lifts the franchise, or hilariously steers it to the brink of avoidable self-destruction. More likely, he does a little of both.
☆ Brooklyn's Kyrie Irving is going to the Dallas Mavericks
  + stars: | 2023-02-05 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
The Mavericks and Brooklyn Nets agreed Sunday on a blockbuster trade: Irving — the super-talented and often-enigmatic eight-time All-Star point guard — heads to Dallas, ending the pairing with Kevin Durant that never really had a chance to click. It was not immediately clear when Irving would make his debut with Dallas. And I think for Dallas, they got a big-time star to go with the one they've got." The trade does again pair Irving with Dallas general manager Nico Harrison, who was a Nike executive before taking over the Mavericks in 2021. After the Nets lost to Dallas at home in overtime in October, Irving said he saw traits of the Mavericks being "a great team."

☆ Sneakerheads are replacing Yeezys with Crocs
  + stars: | 2023-01-13 | by ( Danni Santana | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
Crocs, New Balance, and Puma are some brands benefiting from Adidas Yeezys no longer being released. Crocs, New Balance, and Puma accounted for four "high-heat" sneaker drops in December, Nikic estimates. The Crocs brand has become synonymous with comfort, like Yeezy, and has previously released successful collaborations with both Bad Bunny and designer Salehe Bembury. "Smaller brands such as Puma, New Balance, and Crocs all generated some sneakerhead 'buzz,' likely aided by the lack of Yeezy, which freed up wallet share among sneakerheads," he said. Pictures of the first possible sneaker released without Ye have surfaced online.

The big question, for the Dallas Mavericks, is a rhetorical one: What more can Luka Doncic do? The implied answer is “nothing.” The puzzle of the Mavericks’ season is that they tread water even while their 23-year-old point-forward and MVP candidate ascends. Tuesday night, though, Doncic seemed to take the question seriously, and in doing so authored a basketball masterpiece. In a 126-121 overtime win over the New York Knicks, Doncic scored 60 points, grabbed 21 rebounds and passed out 10 assists. The performance marked the first 60-20-10 game in NBA history, and just the second 60-point triple-double.

☆ Luka Doncic Is Playing With His Back to the Basket and His Eye on the MVP
  + stars: | 2022-12-22 | by ( Robert O'Connell | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Just over a minute into an early-December game against the Phoenix Suns, Luka Doncic dribbled behind a teammate’s screen. This routine action becomes, in the hands of the Dallas Mavericks’ 23-year-old dynamo, a drastic and multifaceted threat. Doncic might sling a pass across the span of an overanxious defense, to an unmarked teammate in the distant corner. That evening, Doncic went with another option, sticking his rump into Devin Booker and scooting him backward into the lane. By the time Doncic raised up for a 8-foot push shot, Booker could only smack his arm, tacking a free-throw onto the bucket.

Curry has excelled this season and is averaging 31.4 points per game but is struggling to carry the Warriors. Ron Jenkins/Getty ImagesFor all of Doncić’s brilliance, it was another night where Curry was let down by his teammates. After the game, Warriors coach Steve Kerr addressed the team’s poor start to the season, “We have to expect that teams are going to make shots against us.
