The Brooklyn Nets winning their last two games — even with one coming against a top gun in the Wild, Wild West — was a garlicky breadcrumb at best in the absolute feast of NBA news placed before us over the weekend. Tasty, but a mere morsel.
It slammed onto our plates without warning. Although Zach LaVine has been a trade candidate long enough to make himself more synonymous with that term than the Chicago Bulls, the Doncic-for-Davis swap hit like a buffet that fell out of the sky.
It was an all-too-tasty meal for those wearing purple and gold — and something unthinkable to stomach for those (remaining) fans in Dallas.
