"2 bums collecting millions to make my team worse," a fan said. "Nico still being employed is such a slap in the face to fans. Of course he is joking around with street clothes," another fan commented. "I can read lips. He’s saying “maaan how did you make a trade so bad?? Hahaha” one fan said.

Other fans haven't moved on from the Luka Doncic trade.

"'Bro, remember that time you traded Luka for me... that was W I L D!!!'" someone commented. "As much as I wanna see the new look Mavs, I cannot enjoy it until that GM bum gets fired," a comment read. "Please get them both off my f**king team man I miss the way it used to be," one fan commented.

This season, Anthony Davis has appeared in 20 games, averaging 20.8 points, 10.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists. Despite his strong play, the Mavericks have not performed well. Dallas has a 2-5 record, which is the second-worst in the Western Conference.

Fortunately for the Mavericks, it's still early in the season and things could still improve.

Chandler Parsons hasn't moved on from the Luka Doncic-Anthony Davis trade

The Mavericks did the unthinkable last season when they traded Luka Doncic away to the LA Lakers for Anthony Davis. Before the Slovenian star was dealt by the team that acquired him in 2018, he led Dallas to the NBA Finals. It was the only time the team had reached the league's biggest stage since 2011.

But the Mavericks weren't big fans of how Doncic lacked physical conditioning. Following that, the organization started raving about defense, which is why they got Davis in the deal.

On Monday's episode of FanDuel TV's "Run It Back," former Mavericks player Chandler Parsons still hasn't moved on from what the team did to Doncic.

"Look the other way, the guy just led you to the Finals," Parsons said (Timestamp: 44:23). "You traded him over bad habits? How about his good habits of 41 and 11 and 8, come on dude.It still doesn’t make sense, it’ll never make sense, and I love Anthony Davis, but it doesn’t check out."

Doncic has moved on from the Mavericks and is happy leading the Lakers with LeBron James and Austin Reaves.
