In this week's episode of The Wisconsin Sportscast, Lucas and Oates look at what is being called “the biggest sports trade of all time!” It likely isn’t, and there is probably a little recency bias coming from the people calling it that. But that’s not to say that the Mav’s trading Luca Doncic to the Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis (plus a little extra) isn’t a big deal. It’s still a huge deal! Both Luca and Davis are NBA All-Stars, if not even better. Yes, Luca doesn’t play defense, but he helped bring the Mavs to the NBA Finals last year! The big shock with this trade is that it came out of nowhere. Nobody seemed to see this coming. Could the Mavs have gotten more from this trade? Probably, but a lot of trades don’t make sense. Plus, Anthony Davis is also an amazing player! Prone to injury? Yes. On the older end? Also yes (he’s been playing for over a decade). But that doesn’t mean he’s not an amazing player.

The trade was big, and it got Lucas thinking: could this happen in Milwaukee with Giannis? It could, Oates thinks, but likely won’t. Sure, the Bucks haven’t been surrounding him with the greatest players in the league. But he’s playing great this year. That said, Giannis has about two years left on his contract, which is right about the time you’d want to trade a big-time player like that. Oates still doesn’t think it’ll happen, but if Luca can be traded, anyone can.

Turning to the NFL, Mason Crosby announced Tuesday that he’s retiring after 17 seasons. Or maybe the NFL is retiring him, it’s hard to say. Either way, he left an important mark on the Green Bay Packers. After one bad season, he stuck around and since became a clutch kicker who could be depended on ninety nine times out of a hundred. A true Green Bay fixture, he was a great athlete and was held to a high stature in the locker room. He even quietly broke records, being the teams all-time top scorer with 1,918 points over his career with the Packers (over 800 points more than number two on the list Ryan Longwell). He also quietly appeared in a record number of games for the Packers with 258, three more than even Brett Farve. He’ll be remembered fondly in Wisconsin.

Finally, the Super Bowl is just a few days away, and Oates thinks it’ll be a great game. It was two years ago! He’s taking the Eagles, breaking from his “best quarterback wins” rule. The Eagles just have more talent on their side, and the Eagles have been playing great in recent weeks. That leaves one burning question: will we see the last tush push in the NFL this Sunday? Hopefully we do.
