They will go down in history as the worst GMs in NBA history probably, no way they are at the same level with Patterson (Portland's GM who chose Oden instead of KD) or Bob Bass (Charlotte's GM who picked Kobe than traded him).
But whose the worst between them?

On the other hand, if Luka made clear he would not resign with the Mavs...

And yet that wasn't the case. He's clearly still pissed about what happened, and pretty clearly wanted to sign his supermax in DAL.

I’m honestly confused and I started thinking that trade needed an NBA veto

It definitely does. I don't know why Silver's failing to act, other than that the move fits in to his plans, such as the new (casino) owners ruining the team so they can claim Dallas doesn't support it, so they can move it to Vegas. Still an awful look for the NBA, if so.

Btw, an article just came out by a team analyst that Dallas' analytics dept have thought for some time that Luka's impact isn't really equal to his numbers, and that it would be best to eventually trade him. Still, that doesn't seem to fit with 1) Luka just making the finals and 2) why Nico got such a pathetic return for him.
