<p>On this episode of <em>Ball is Bae</em>, I was joined by NBA journalist and longtime Mavs fan Ishan Bhattacharya to unravel the chaos that was the Luka Doncic trade. Was it just bad GMing? Or was something deeper at play — a Nike-driven plot, a hidden deal with the NBA, or a rigged lottery as payback?</p><br><p>We break down every theory — from Nico Harrison’s real motives to how the Mavs magically landed the #1 pick. This is an unfiltered conversation packed with emotion, suspicion, and pure basketball paranoia.</p><br><p>If you think the NBA is just about hoops, think again.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
