Four of the top five stars in the league have completed the championship, why is Doncic not the championship?

Jokic, Antetokounmpo, Alexander, Tatum and Doncic are the representative players of the new generation of NBA. With their own technical advantages, they have taken over the baton from older generation superstars such as Jendoku step by step, becoming the league's new storefront. And in recent seasons, except for Curry and his Warriors winning one championship in the 21-22 season, four of the above five players have won the championship in the other seasons. The only player who did not win the championship was Doncic. Looking back at the careers of the five players, Doncic does have a certain gap with the other four players in all aspects, which ultimately led to his inability to realize his dream in the Mavericks and became the first player among the five players to be traded at the peak of his career.

Compared with Jokic, Antetokounmpo, Alexander and Tatum, Doncic's biggest problem is his attendance rate. Before the playoffs this season, Tatum could be said to be the league's attendance champion. Before the 25th season, he basically maintained a 100% attendance rate. Antetokounmpo and Mr. Yoo are also players with high attendance rates. Mr. Yoo has no major injury history, and the absence is more because the attendance rate of family affairs can reach 90.2-93%. Antetokounmpo is even more an iron man. Although there have been more round breaks in recent seasons, there are no major injuries. It can be said that it is only the team that has provided key protection for him that Antetokounmpo is absent. Otherwise, there will be no large number of absences in recent seasons. The attendance rate in recent seasons has remained at about 76.8-84.7%. Alexander did not have any absentee problem caused by major injuries. Although he suffered a naked ligament tear in the 2023 season, no major injuries occurred after making efforts. This season he transformed into an Iron Man, with a season attendance rate of 92%, becoming a MVP Grand Slam player in the new season.

In contrast, Doncic's attendance rate in the first few seasons of his career was still good, but in recent seasons, due to insufficient control of weight, he suffered from naked feet and knee injuries. Except for Tatum, the above four players have not won the MVP, the other three players have won the MVP and the MVP of the Finals. Doncic has not achieved excellent honors so far. Although the Mavericks became the Western Conference playoff team after winning Doncic and entered the finals in the 23-24 season, the team still won nothing in the end, which has a direct connection with Doncic.

After talking about Doncic's problem, I would talk about the team's problem. Antetokounmpo joined the team in 2013, Jokic joined the Nuggets in 2014, Tatum was the 17-year-old Tanhua Show, and Doncic and Alexander were both rookies in 2018. At the same time, Doncic was also the 1930sold Tanhua Show, trading from the Hawks to the Mavericks. Alexander was the 11th pick in the first round, and traded from the Hornets to the Clippers. Several of the winners were in the 20-21 season, the 22-23 season, the 23-24 season and the 24-25 season respectively. Antetokounmpo, Jokic, Tatum, Alexander and others won their first career championships in the seventh and eighth seasons of their careers. This not only includes the efforts of several players themselves, but also the efforts of their respective team management. The Bucks have completed the formation of the core framework by signing players such as Daluo, Middleton and Holiday, and supplemented by various shooter groups, which ultimately helped the team win the championship smoothly. The same is true for the

Celtics. After choosing the Double Tanhua, they got the "White Emperor" through the trade, signed Holiday and introduced Posses to finally complete the lineup and helped the team win the championship. The Thunder are even more a model of success in the small ball market. They introduced the core of the team building by trading All-Star players and started building a team around Alexander. The most powerful thing about the Thunder is that their key players to win the championship are basically all from their own drafts. For example, choosing Gidey, after training a few years, Caruso, the core of the outside defense was traded to defend Caruso on the outside. In 222, they chose Chet and Jaylen with two first-round picks. The two are the key to the Thunder's championship this season. In contrast, the Mavericks also signed with Irving to share the offensive pressure after winning Doncic, and traded to Washington and Gafford to improve the team's defensive ability, hoping to win the championship based on the core style of ball control, but eventually lost. Compared with the other teams, the Mavericks are still much worse in finding helpers for Doncic. Although the team is working hard to improve the team, there is still a certain gap compared with the other teams, especially in drafting and cultivating new players. The team cannot provide strong support for Doncic, which makes it impossible to make progress in the record.

For Doncic, he still had a chance to win the championship in the Mavericks, but his luck was a bit bad. He encountered the Celtics at the time and was eventually defeated. The competition between the Mavericks and the Celtics was even more confrontation between the Magic Ball System and the core playing style of holding the ball. The Mavericks failed to effectively break the Celtics' defensive strategy. Although Doncic tried his best, he lacked scoring support at critical moments, which led to insufficient overall tactical execution and ultimately failed to break through the siege. If the Mavericks want to make a breakthrough in the subsequent season, they need to put more effort into drafting and cultivating new players, and at the same time optimize the tactical system to enhance the team's overall tacit understanding and execution ability.
