Can someone explain like I haven't followed basketball since 1999?

MJ for Patrick Ewing and a 1st

So it's a really bad illogical trade? I also don't follow sports in my own country let alone the US's

the trade seems so bad people thought that the person who was breaking the story was hacked. Now many are still so shocked that they are hypothesising extreme amounts of corruption

To quote cheeto-man : "The worst trade deal in the history of the world"

Luka is a top 3 player in the league who's just about to enter his prime, he's been the betting favorite to win MVP the last 3 years. Anthony Davis is a good but older and injury prone center who improves their defense. Luka was probably 75% of their offense. The Mavs are just off a trip to the finals last year thanks to a huge carry job by Luka. Trading him for a Anthony Davis and a 1st round pick might literally be the worst trade in American sports history.
