ESPN’s Brian Windhorst on why Dallas traded for Anthony Davis: “The reason they selected Anthony Davis as the guy they wanted for Luka is because they believe that trade can help them win the championship this year. They think they’re now big enough with their bigs to go against Memphis, to go against OKC, to go against Houston. They think they’ve got an advantage. They think they can get up there and beat them. That’s their look.”

Dirk Nowitzki on how his relationship with Steve Nash has evolved: “I think it went from super hot to very cold to super hot again. There was a phase when he left us where things were a little chilly…We have really reconnected in retirement more and more. Started traveling together with our families…It’s like all of the early 2000s all over again, so it’s been super fun reconnecting with him like that again and he’s one of my best friends.”

Anthony Davis on if there were moments today that felt like Dallas could win a title: “It’s not even the offensive end, it’s defensively. We had a record, first game, 18 blocks, we had none by Kyrie (jokingly)…Once we really get (the defensive scheme) down, it’s gonna be a problem for opposing teams. Just being able to guard defensively. We can’t control the ball going in every night, but we can lay our hats on defense. Defense has always won championships…”

Kyrie Irving on Luka Doncic and if they have spoke since the trade: “We’ve texted back and forth. I’ve let him know that regardless of how this NBA business shakes out…We’re loyal to each other’s families now. We had a lot of sacred conversations that went beyond the court, and just helping each other as men. I set my mission early on when I got traded here of just what I wanted to accomplish with him and I felt like we got that going and unfortunately it was cut short, but we’ll see each other pretty soon. Hopefully I can catch up with him during All-Star break.”

Jason Kidd doubled down on not knowing about the Luka Doncic trade until right before it went down, and was asked if he was fine with not knowing until the end: “Ya, I’m an employee of the Mavs.” When asked if he wants any say on how the roster is constructed: I think I’ve said this before, I’m the coach. I coach the players that are here. We made a trade, and we got to push forward.” When asked if he’s one of the coaches that “wants to buy some of the groceries”: “No, I’m the one who gets the groceries, and I’ve got to figure out how to use it, and so that’s what we’re doing…I don’t wanna be the one that’s buying the groceries, just give me the groceries and I’ll figure it out.”

Jason Kidd on what Cooper Flagg needs to work on this summer: “First thing would be rest. Just understanding the expectations and everything that was coming out of the draft, Summer League. Just giving a 19-year-old a little time to have some R&R. Play a little golf…He’s gotta give his mind and body some rest here because next year will be a lot longer.”

Klay Thompson on adjusting to his new role off the bench: “I’m enjoying it, I get to see the game develop so I can see where to pick my spots. At the end of the day, I played 30 minutes in the NBA, year 15, in just trying to be out there as much as I possibly can. I’m not saying the end is near but like it’s such a privilege to be out there, no matter if it’s mid-November or early June. My goal this year is to be the most consistent presence in the lineup.”

I asked Klay Thompson about his heated interactions with Vince Williams Jr., Santi Aldama, and Ja Morant tonight: “It was a great time. With the tall guy, I thought just like that’s not cool. I’ve seen them do dirty stuff before. I remember in the playoffs, 2022, they broke my teammates elbow on a dirty hit…I don’t like seeing that done to a rookie. That’s not cool…Don’t be dirty. That’s not it…And Williams, I just kept that same energy, kept chirping, thought he flopped when I got tied up with him. And then with Ja, he’s a funny guy. He has a lot to say all the time, especially for a guy who rarely takes accountability, but you know, that’s for another day.”

So, gonna get a lot better this summer, guys will be healthy, guys will be working together, so, I think it’s gonna be really good for us to get some time off and then some time to work together, and just see how we look next year. I think, like I said, the future is bright, so for us, it’s just coming in and be healthy.”

Coming into Dallas, I was dealing with a lot…They embraced me with open arms…I knew eventually that I would get (Luka) to open up, this guy’s a big teddy bear at times off the court, big competitor. A teddy bear who likes to compete. He’s still ducking me in dominoes…I just have to sit back and marvel at his talent…I enjoy watching him be a father, I enjoy watching him develop as a person first, and then the basketball stuff will take care of it…Good human being, good young man.”
