Cam jock tate and Jabari 4 first round picks for Luka anyone does that. this trade was made drunk on some nba2k ****
read this on tjhe mavsboard "The only way this makes sense is if the new owners are moving the franchise to Vegas. Burn bridges with the community to make it easier to cut ties? Check Do the league a solid in this time of bad ratings and gift a franchise player to the biggest name brand? Check" so did trade pretty much guarantee that the league (and Nike?) will do everything in its power to facilitate moving the Mavs to Vegas?
Yep. They didn't get nearly enough. That's the biggest issue. Moving on from Luka was fine. But not for what they got. I don't think Luka will have playoff success with the Lakers as they're built now but that's besides the point.
I watch the NBA closely for 20 years, and this is by far the most 2K bot like trade I've ever seen. Insane. I hate the Mavs passionately so I like that they got worse, but it pisses me off that the Lakers got handed Luka on a silver platter.
Corruption running amok in the NBA. This is a trade that is simply too bizarre to be real, yet there it is. The Rockets could have beaten what the Lakers are giving Dallas for Luka, easy. No phone call.
This is an underrated point here. New owner syndrome is real. Tilman traded Harden. The guy in Phx been doing crazy stuff since he bought the team. The new Dallas owners were due to do something crazy/stupid.
Mavs trading Luka for the #1 pick this year makes sense. This is pure NBA controlling the league like the puppet Masters they are. There is a reason Silver calls the league "entertainment" instead of "sport" that way they can get away with tampering.
This league is rigged, how in the world did this get approved by the league office? There are multiple teams that could have made better offers for Luka
Gentle reminder on the LeBron what-ifs. Like Beal, LeBron has a no trade clause. So Pelinka wouldn't be able to pull a surprise one over Bron like he did over AD tonight. Anyways carry on.
I thought this was a **** trade until realizing that we potentially have Dallas' 2029 first round pick. lol
David Stern vetoed the CP3 trade knowing it was your typical Lakers BS... Lets see what Adam Silver is made of.. lol
Completely stunned. Why would Dallas do this? If you are trading Luka, wouldn't us Rockets can give you more in returns?
I mean they probably get Giannis for Luka straight up These guys only called 1 team for a trade request and it happens to be the Lakers LMAO How can anyone actually buy this corrupt BS
