Last in the league! Worst in history! The most desperate team in the NBA was born, Luka defeated both No. 1 picks

5:35pm, 7 November 2025【Basketball】

New season, new pattern, many teams from the east and west are making a comeback. As many teams create surprises as many teams disappoint! In the East, the Magic used Pope + Anthony + 4 unprotected first-round picks + 1 first-round swap right to the Grizzlies, and got a meaty Curry Bane, ready to do something big! But what's the result? The Magic only achieved a record of 3 wins and 5 losses, ranking 11th in the Western Conference. Not only did Bane fail to solve the Magic's offensive constipation problem, he also completely lost himself. So far this season, Bain is averaging 13.9 points per game, only higher than his rookie season (9.2 points), and his field goal percentage (41.4%) and three-point field goal percentage (27.8%) are both career lows. In the words of fans, it doesn't feel bad for the Magic's kid to sell Ye Tian, ​​because he is back as an undercover agent.

If the Magic are the most disappointing team in the Eastern Conference, then the Mavericks are definitely the most desperate team in the NBA. In the new season, Irving was exempted from the competition due to injury, Big Eyebrow missed 3 games due to injury, and Gafford and Lively missed 5 games due to injury. This team with the best inside reserves in the NBA was completely destroyed by injuries. As the saying goes: Die before starting, and the hero will burst into tears! In less than three weeks since the start of the season, the Lone Ranger is running around and getting beaten! Among them, in the opening game against the Spurs, the Mavericks suffered a 32-point defeat; against the Thunder, the Mavericks fell behind by up to 22 points, and struggled to counterattack in the final quarter but could not escape defeat; against the Pacers, they retired with an injury and suffered a 12-point reversal; against the Pelicans, the Mavericks narrowly lost by 2 points.

As of now, the Mavericks have only achieved a record of 2 wins and 6 losses, ranking last in the Western Conference. How badly did the Mavericks lose? Data doesn't lie! So far this season, the Mavericks' many offensive and defensive statistics rank at the bottom of the league. Among them, the average points per game (106.3), offensive efficiency (103.2), three-pointers made (10.1), and opponent rebounds (50.6) all rank last in the league. In another statistics, the Mavericks' score per 100 possessions this season is 11.8 points less than the league average, and the relative offensive efficiency value is -11.8, the worst in NBA history!

The Lone Ranger is struggling, and injuries are one of the reasons. The three big insiders, Big Eyebrow, Lively and Gafford, have been injured in turn. Who can bear this? Especially thick eyebrows. When he appeared on the media day with a puffy figure, many people lamented that Dallas has a good environment for people. Some people are worried that thick eyebrows will not last half a season. Only thick eyebrows and mouth are the toughest: I am like this every year. As the season progresses, I naturally lose weight! But what's the result? Nongmei has missed 3 consecutive games due to a strained left calf. In the 5 games that Big Eyebrow played, he averaged only 20.8 points + 10.2 rebounds + 2.2 assists + 1.6 steals + 1.2 blocks, and his three-point shooting percentage was only 27.3%. The former master key has become rusty after returning to the fourth position, and it is difficult for you to believe that he can continue to return to his peak state.

With the absence of Irving and his thick eyebrows, training Flagg, the top pick, has become Kidd's top priority. So far this season, Flagg has played in 8 games, averaging 14.4 points + 6.6 rebounds + 2.8 assists + 1.1 steals + 1.1 three-pointers, and 2.1 turnovers. His shooting rate is 39.4%, three-point shooting rate is 29%, and free throw shooting rate is 100%. According to statistics, Flagg scored a total of 115 points, 53 rebounds and 22 assists in 8 games. He is the second youngest player after James to complete 100+20+20. Flagg is very comprehensive, but it is a bit difficult for Kidd to let him play point guard. This is also one of the keys to the failure of the Mavericks' offensive system.

With the Mavericks in such a situation, countless people miss Luka, and many people are still gritting their teeth in anger at the Mavericks completing the big deal for Luka's thick eyebrows! Especially when Luka leads the Lakers soaring all the way, the damage caused by this comparison is doubled! So far this season, the Lakers have 7 wins and 2 losses, ranking second in the Western Conference. They rank first in the league in field goal percentage (52%) and true shooting percentage (62.6%), and rank fifth in the league in offensive efficiency (117.1). In the process, Luka averaged 40 points + 11 rebounds + 9.2 assists + 2 steals per game, completely beating the two No. 1 picks and scoring more than Nong Mei and Flagg combined. In the words of the American media, if Harrison now asks Pelinka to trade thick eyebrows + Flagg for Luka, he will 100% be rejected! At least judging from the current situation, the Mavericks really miscalculated in trading Luka. The thick eyebrows can't be counted on, and Flagg is still young. Their dream of winning now is difficult to realize. Fans and friends, what do you think of this? Come and leave me a comment to discuss.
