    At this point, I could see Embiid getting traded to the Lakers for Bronny.

    Calling it now, Lebron retires in a few years just as Wembanyama's entering his prime and Wemby joins Luka on the Lakers.

    Translation, spurms better get their act together or it's bye bye Wemby

    I actually never thought of that. Could be a drawcard for Victor to leave if the Spurs don't do right by him and get a good team around him by then, LA now seems like an enticing destination.

    Bill Simmons saying if he runs SA, if Mavs offered Luka, he would give everyone on the team except Wemby. Castle, Vassell, anyone else that Mavs want and 7 FRP

    Yes. I always thought the Spurs 2026 strategy (and Miami too) involved keeping flexibility for a Luka play. More than Daron freaking Fox, lol. 😂

    This is so wild to me still, wow.

    The Mavs are just saying what they need to say. Their front office got Kyrie and let Brunson walk for nothing. They've failed Luka so far so blaming Luka after he carried that ing team to the finals is insane. Yeah, Luka has issues but he's still a top 5 player in the NBA.
    Can’t believe I’m writing this, but their FO makes Brian Wright look like Red Auerbach.

    Yeah I am listening to them this morning. They think the trade is ridiculous. They were joking if they were the Lakers hey do you think we should take a vote Luka for AD and a future 1st, first?

    Pelinka as GM of the year for picking up a phone.

    Dallas optics look bad

    Here I am doing my morning internet check and miss the biggest NBA news ever regarding trade in my lifetime. I was searching any updates to Fox and had to do a triple check that this trade went down. As a cowboy fan, I thought I would never ever see as dumb of an owner/GM as Jerry, but here we are…

    Only thing that makes sense is that Luka has some major health issue... if not, this needs to get vetoed if the NBA wants any credibility.

    I think it's time Popovich lives upto his Slovenian roots and the Slovenian mafia among the Spurs fans help out in getting the Luka in 2026 to the Spurs thing happen.

    Wonder if teams actually complain to Silver about? I doubt he pulls a veto, but we could hear some stories about it. 's mad rigged.

    Also I do believe this increases the likelihood of a Fox trade, or other trades in general.

    A landscape-shaping move. Every single team in the league is re-thinking their boards and projections right now.

    You think there's actually something to them wanting to move the team to Vegas?
    I always thought of Dallas as a too big of a market to lose their team, but this just doesn't add up.


    “I understand why they would be shocked, initially,” Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison told The News. “But I do believe that we positioned ourselves to win now and also win in the future.
    “And that’s ultimately the goal and why we’re here. It’s one of those things where it’s my job to make the tough decisions that put our goals first and foremost.”
    How, when and why did this megadeal come to fruition?
    Harrison cited his two-decade relationship with Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka, starting when Harrison was a Nike executive and Pelinka was a player agent.
    Harrison told The News that he and Pelinka began having “basketball” conversations more than a month ago.
    “Then all of a sudden we’re like, ‘Would you ever do this?’
    ‘Nah, you’re joking, right?’
    ‘Hmm. Interesting. Maybe I would.’
    Added Harrison: “And then it just built over time over the last three weeks.”
    “We really feel like we got ahead of what was going to be a tumultuous summer, him being eligible for the supermax and also a year away from him being able to opt out of any contract,” Harrison said. “And so we really felt like we got out in front of that. We know teams, they’ve had it out there, teams have been loading up to try to sign him once that comes available.”
    “We really feel that defense wins championships, and we think the players that we’re bringing in add to the culture, which is important to what J-Kidd and I have been building here from day one,” Harrison said.
    “And then obviously, when you get an all NBA player who’s also a first team All-Defensive player, we think that’s gonna help us where we need it the most, on the defensive end.”

    As much as I think our front office isn't good enough, there are so many actual re s in charge of sports teams, this guy is either re ed or was paid to sabotage the team.

    She owns it, but if i remember correctly, Cuban retained control of basketball operations when he sold his interest.

    No, Cuban had no say in this, he's just a mascot at this point.
    We probably won't see him at Mavs games ever again, just last year he (jokingly) said he'd rather divorce his wife than trade Luka.
    Decades of his hard work down the drain, Mavs are back to Hornets-tier joke franchise.

    Gotcha...I just looked ot up and you're correct. I remembered him saying he was maintaining operational control, but after the sale he didn't have it. So I guess he lied or didn't have an ironclad contract on that part.

    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.
    You are completely delusional.

    Everyone head on over to Mavs reddit for some good entertainment. New cliff jumping threads started every 5 minutes. I mean it seems they have a right to be pissed, their GM looks to have just chosen the Lakers because he's besties with Pelinka. I'm assuming he could have gotten a better deal if he put it up for bids.
