At this point I wouldn't be surprised if someone with a legit center calls the Lakers and offers him for a second rounder.
wont be suprised if lakers trade knect or reeves for a legit center.Maybe kessler or poeltl or something.

Going through Mavs subreddit I found this:
There is absolutely no way this isn't some kind of insider/backdoor deal by Nico.
- 8 months ago there was an article that stated "Nico Harrison is like an uncle to Bronny".
- Nico was also a former executive at Nike.
- New owner Miriam Adelson also owns the Las Vegas Sands, which owns the Venetian and a bunch of other hotels in Vegas. Guess who wants an ownership stake in a Las Vegas NBA team? Lebron.
The rejected trade offer must've been for Giannis.
Considering that Nico was after a win-now elite 2 way big, no other player makes sense.
This really sucks for Devin Booker, will he have to change schools or will he be allowed to finish the year with his friends?
What team do you think could've been interested AND able to keep Luka long term? (you can't trade for him for just him not to extend)
I just can't see
They need a center that can shoot from 3. Olynk might be a target. Any way we could pawn off Zach to them? Lol
Well we won't know how many teams would load up because the mavs did a quiet deal with the Lakers. Like the mavs didn't even tell Luka's agent. I'd say that every team would have made an offer.
Miami could've offered them Bam, Herro, Jovic, JJJ and picks.
Rockets could've offered Amen, Green and picks.
Most teams in the league would offer a lot, I'm sure Luka wouldn't mind staying in Miami.
They'll probably try to get Turner this summer.
That would make sense. I don't know what their cap situation looks like though.
Hopefully Klutch sports was focusing on this trade and can turn their attention back to get Fox to the Spurs lol
You really have to wonder what lebron thinks of this and if he'll be moved by Friday. If LA is looking to the future then getting a good return might appeal to them, on the other hand lebron might be upset and ask for a trade. This is a crazy time we're living in..
LA has MORE food for Luka, not just healthy food. I don’t know Laker org culture that well, but nothing I’ve heard over the years indicates that they have the people or culture to turn Luka into Jaylen Brown. Dude could eat dumplings for decades.
Neither DAL or LA rosters make sense right now. DAL with 3 centers, LA with none (lol Gafford didn’t get included). Do we go after Gafford?
Lebron is a big question too. Does LA trade him now?? (Not to us)
I could maybe see how DAL GM wanted to keep things quiet and fast in case Luka heard about it and started demanding destinations. But regardless, what a ing trade.
Hard to believe the other teams in the NBA won't want this looked into.
Also lol DAL thinking Irving AD and Thompson in a wheelchair is going to compete with OKC HOU MEM in the back half of all 3 of those “centerpiece” players careers.
Lebron has a NTC, there are very few destinations he'd accept.
I'd say GSW and Miami make sense.
Wiggins+Kuminga+$14M more salary filler to the Lakers.
Then either straight up trade with GSW or 3-team trade with Lebron going to Miami and Jimmy going to GSW.
I know what happened, I'm asking who do u guys think could've been interested AND able other than the Lakers?
I ca see only disadvantages to test the market, as everyone suggest, with all the noise and pressure from the fans.
Listening to KOC, he thinks it could be Luka and Lebron who are behind all of it and forced Mavs's hand. Hum...
If I'm GS, I'm dropping the Butler stuff and going after Lebron... if I'm Mami I'm offering Butler + picks to LA for Lebron. If I'm LA, I'm taking the GS deal you mentioned.
Miami and Houston have 2 defensive minded coaches who would lose it if they had to coach Luka. Just can't see either wanting him.
I don't see "plenty of teams" bro, I don't see any that would also attract Luka, condition for him to extend in the near future with his new team and make the present trade possible.
Mavs wouldn't get the equivalent of AD that allows them to remain compe ive and teams with attractive draft picks would rather keep them than paying a fortune a dude who could leave for nothing in a year.
I think they let Lebron leave this summer and get a lot of cap space to start a new era centered aroung Luka.
Unless Lebron takes a friendly deal to mentor and keep stat paddng a little more. tHEY CAN'T BUILD ANYTHING IF lEBRON TAKES +50M again
Yes. Highly likely Mavs GM called Spurs for Wemby. Especially since he was quoted saying Defense win championship and he wanted a high level defensive center. Wemby being the frontrunner for DPOY fit that.
Maybe they called the Spurs for Wemby
Logically, the only players (consider superstar status and age-wise) that you will say NO for Luka are only Jokic, SGA, Wemby, Giannas,
Any other players that Mavs is asking you for Luka, You will say yes in a heartbeat.
This is really interesting
Lakers have no picks, Dallas has aging players
Itll be interesting who's doing better in 5 years
It's clearly to every- ing-one that this is some bull . Wouldn't Mavs ownership have to agree to this too? Has anything even been finalized? Silver looks like trash if he doesn't at least pretend to investigate this .
At this point, I could see Embiid getting traded to the Lakers for Bronny.
