They probably won't have enough time to build a real roster before LeBron retires without trading LeBron himself. The only decent players on that team are now completely redundant with each other. They're basically building around Luka from scratch with no picks left.
"Guyz! GUYZ! Whatever is said, please know - LEBRON HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS!!! HE IS AS SHOCKED AS THE REST OF US!"
We have all these youngsters and draft picks, okc has a sht ton of those also. Yet somehow Lakers gave up only a first round pick and aging 31 year old ad for luka. While we have folks discussing if we should roll the dice on a 36 year old butler, Lakers pull this sht
As much as Lebron has the pull I dont think he can convince billionaire owners to trade away their 25 yr old face of the franchise and MVP contender. Its not like Rox gonna trade Amen and Sengun for Cam Reddish just cuz Lebron wants them. This trade is TEAM initiated not PLAYER initiated.
Crazy how the rest of the NBA weren’t aware that Luka and AD were available to trade. Shady ass NBA. Rigged for the Lakers future for Lebron and Bronny? This is a ****ing script for the success of the Lakers and Lebron. But this is what the NBA needed… ratings are going to soar through the roof now. ****. I’m just shocked Lebron and Curry and Durant aren’t on the same team yet.
Haynes: Mavs initiated. Lakers were looking for someone post-LeBron. AD & Nico are tight. Nico was AD’s Nike rep and helped sign him to Nike
Bro. Two F’ing plane crashed back to back days. It snowed 12” in NOLA…simulation…yes. 2025=PURE CHAOS.
If anything this trade is anti-LeBron. They traded for his replacement, not his partner. They both have completely redundant skill sets and at this point, Luka is better than LeBron.
Well to be fair Lebron can play PF and be the Kareem to Luka's Magic. Lebron can shoot from 3 and still good at rebounding and passing. They just need lots of young defensive players now. I bet this trade lights a fire under Luka and he comes out guns blazing when he is back. Dude has got to be pissed Mavs actually didnt want him lol.
Wtf. Was about to fall asleep, was pissed about the loss and was just ignoring the bbs. I go on Facebook and see this ****, thought it was fake decided to come here. Wtf. I've read through the thread. Everyone blaming Nico and that's fine. Rigged. Ok. Why do the Mavs owners agree to this? The fat guy led you to the ****ing finals lol. Who gives a **** if he is fat.
Yeah. This is sketchy as hell. I actually feel bad for Dallas fans. And there is NO WAY someone wouldn't have made Dallas a better offer than that in an open market. No way at all. The NBA is a ****ing joke. This is criminal.
