Golden State Warriors veteran Draymond Green gave his take on the Dallas Mavericks' Luka Doncic trade to the Los Angeles Lakers for All-Star Anthony Davis. While Mavericks fans cope with the unexpected blockbuster deal, Green explained his point of view as two who won the trade: Dallas or Los Angeles?

For Green, he's giving the edge to Anthony Davis and the Mavericks, per The Draymond Green Show produced by The Volume and iHeartPodcasts.

“In the interim right now today, Anthony Davis, Dallas. The reason I say this is because that’s a made team,” Green said. “You got Luka if you’re the Lakers but now you don’t have a Big. You don’t have a starting caliber Center. I think for them now, they have to figure out how to build a team. You got Bron, you got Luka, you got Austin Reaves, but now you got to like figure out how to build a team out.

“They need to at some point get a Big. So as of right now currently, as it stands today, you lace them up, you go out there and play tomorrow, it’s Dallas,” Green concluded.

For the Lakers, it's a long-term play with an increased incentive for players to want to join them.

“I don't think this was a move that the Lakers were making to say we're betting right now for today,” Green added. “I think what the Lakers thought was this team ain't great, we're not winning a championship, we got a chance to get Luka Donic? This gives us a chance to possibly sign a couple of guys and compete right now with Luka and LeBron. But it also gives us a chance to compete [long-term].”

Mavericks point guard Kyrie Irving discussed the Luka Doncic trade with the Lakers for the first time. Irving was shocked like the rest of the NBA world, per ESPN's Tim Bontemps.

“Just really shocked and you just don’t imagine you’re going to get ready to go to sleep, and then you find out news like that,” Irving said. “It’s still a grieving process right now. I miss my hermano.”

Irving says it's a process the Mavs will be going through for a little while.

“It is a ruthless business,” Irving added. “We still have to acknowledge that our little Slovenian president is no longer here and we gotta adjust.”

The Mavericks will face the Celtics on the road on Thursday.
