This is so su ious. Not even marketing one of the most in demand names in sports and accepting some back room weak offer.
How do you not even make them give you a 2025 pick? Make them trade Reeves for one wtf…2029 pick when the Lakers are going to be rebuilt is horrible value![]()

Adelson chose to pay Trump $100 million instead of paying Doncic the supermax![]()
Maybe he joins Wemby & co.
If i was a mavs fan and had season tix - id be pissed and would never support that team again…
He just took his team to the finals.
What the are some of you even talking about. Yes, he has issues. He's STILL one of the best players in the leauge and one of the few that is a true MVP candidate each year. The analysis stops there. You don't give those players away!
Trading Doncic due to conditioning concerns is one thing. Trading him to the Lakers for a terrible return when there would have been at least 15 better offers if the Mavs had openly shopped him is another.
The Mavs didn't market Luka because they wanted AD specifically. Whether that is the right or wrong thing, doesn't matter. Nico Harrison woke up one morning and decided AD was the guy he wanted to try and win now.
In the short run, this probably works out for the Mavs. There are a few teams that need centers, and now they have an excess of them. Mavs will make a few more moves to complete the roster for this year... but this is a short-sighted move. The fact they only got 1 FRP back is wild to me.
Luka Magic on the Magic would have been interesting.
Mavs win short term but it doesnt matter cause neither team is winning a chip anyway.
Lakers win the long termthe nba
He is the NBA version of Ben Roethlisberger
Even if you hate Doncic they could have done far far better than Davis and a crap first.
If Davis can stay healthy, Dallas > Lakers in the short term. The Doncic investment won't pay off until after LeBron retires. However, the Lakers defense will be non-existent.
Would be hilarious if Luka just played out his last year and went back to Bratislava or wherever the he's from
this makes the lakers less compe ive this year but you take this deal 20 times out of 10 lol. the lakers had a doomed future and now actually have a 25 (soon to be 26) year old MVP caliber player for the foreseeable future
i always laugh at people here for the "its always a conspiracy to help the lakers" take but i dno... not beating the allegations with this one![]()
30% YoY increase is crazy
The mavs were worried about luka’s weight/health issues….but they put their faith in the china doll?
hahahahahahahahahahajajajajajajajajahajahahahahaha hahaha!
mavs fans hahahaha!
I meant a PR mess that could've prevented them to accomplish their goal.
It's clearly beyond a basketball decision. It's a Franchise's future one. They didn't want emotions getting involved.
I'm curious to see what Doncic work ethic will be with Lakers. Between the spotlight/nightlife/celebrities, Lakers might be the more challenging place for someone like him.
As a basketball fan, I just want to see a fit and motivated Doncic. He is such a special talent.
That is an all-time bad trade by Dallas and anyone who says differently is dumb as . Just bailed out the Lakers tbh
Its clear they didn't want money or logic involved either. Pretty sure the only thing involved was delusion.
l.a. has the healthiest food, healthiest people, healthiest lifestyles, etc…
Maybe we can get JJJ for Vassell
