INDIANAPOLIS – Overreacting in the NBA is something that should be avoided at all costs, but is easy to do nonetheless.
One loss (or win) can flick the emotional needle to the red zone.
This is particularly dangerous mere days before the trade deadline.

They have needs. They could use a ballhandler to take some of the wear-and-tear of doing that job off of Luka Doncic.
