    Dallas is ruining my boy Luka man. First he got stuck with Hardaway Jr, then they traded for Dinwiddie, then they were about to re-sign Brunson to a ridiculous contract and now they're wanting to bring in Irving?

    All of their 1st rounders are available after 2025.

    A whole slew of bad contracts:

    Dinwiddie $20 million
    THJ $19 million
    Bertans $16 million
    Powell $11 million
    Bullock $10 million

    Man look at all the click baits. Every team will be all in, but maybe 4 have a serious chance. Dallas, HaHaHaHa!

    Would you unload the proverbial draft pick clip for Luka?

    Because Brunson is going to sign with NYK, Mavs could utilize it as a S&T, and then turn around and offer significant cap relief and picks to the Nets, which would financially aid in their ability to take back Ayton in a S&T

    4 team blockbuster

    Irving to Mavs

    Durant to Suns

    Ayton, Bridges, Dinwiddie + 2 Mavs 1st to Nets

    Brunson S&T to Knicks

    Paul
    Booker
    Durant
    Crowder
    MLE

    Irving
    Doncic
    DFS
    Kleber
    Wood

    Dinwiddie
    Harris
    Bridges
    Simmons
    Ayton

    Brunson
    Grimes
    Barrett
    Randle
    Robinson


    Looks good for everybody

    That's pretty creative but man lol at the Knicks for being a part of a trade that includes Irving, Durant, Bridges and Ayton only to end up with jalen Brunson

    What do you mean?

    Knicks are signing Brunson outright, the only involvement would be accepting him as an S&T for free, would probably receive some 2nds for it.

    I think Knicks would 100% be happy to aid KD and Irving out of NY.

    Funniest thing about all this is the Nets trading a 2023 first for Royce O'Neal only for Kevin Durant to walk into the office minutes later and want out :D

    He does NOT have that level of talent. Who is he knocking out of the top 10? Hakeem ?? Shaq?? Kobe?? hells no

    He could be top 20-25 but there are levels like most things in life. His defense is not top 10 all time attainable.
