The Dallas Mavericks trading away Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers in February shattered the fanbase, leaving them wondering what was wrong with the people in charge to make a decision like that. The team fell out of the playoffs after the trade, mostly due to injuries, but that didn't help the fans' feelings.

Even as the Mavs prepare to usher in the Cooper Flagg era, a large part of the fan base still hasn't forgiven Nico Harrison for trading Doncic.

Many Mavericks fans are still furious about the trade that sent Doncic to LA, and they’re calling for general manager Nico Harrison to be fired. While he did acquire Anthony Davis and later landed the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 draft to select Cooper Flagg, his future with the team remains uncertain.
