Yeah, apparently he failed the physical. That's going to be ackward for the almost traded players...
Darn, he's definitely a great player that I would probably take over Luka if they were the same age as I love defense and he's also good on offense, but darn, the injuries make me pause. If they traded Luka due to being out of shape physically, they traded for the wrong guy.
Also, what was Sean Elliott on about during the broadcast? He said the trade for Mark Williams was rescinded?
Yeah, apparently he failed the physical. That's going to be ackward for the almost traded players...
Darn, that sucks. I remember a few fans here during his draft were interested in him, but mentioned he has an injury history. I wonder why he failed it/what issues came up?
I'm curious to see what Gilbert Arenas has to say about this as he talked a lot of trash about Dalton Knecht on his way out. lol.
Was always the problem with AD. He's one of the best - when he's healthy. Which is essentially never.
I'd rather Donutcic because he's at least got a few good years ahead of him when he's mostly healthy, if still a fatass.
I think they know the game by now though, come deadline someone will get traded. When you're making millions even as a 3rd or 4th option, even off the bench, you're basically your own company. It's weird.
lol at this dumb :
Dumont added:
If you look at the greats in the league, the people you and I grew up with — [Michael] Jordan, [Larry] Bird, Kobe [Bryant], Shaq [O'Neal] — they worked really hard, every day, with a singular focus to win. And if you don't have that, it doesn't work. And if you don't have that, you shouldn't be part of the Dallas Mavericks. That's who we want. I'm unwavering on this. The entire organization knows this. This is how I operate outside of basketball. This is the only way to be compe ive and win. If you want to take a vacation, don't do it with us.
Who's this Dumont guy? Sounds like he doesn't know much about the NBA. Shaq was not a hard worker and certainly not every day. I don't know anything about Larry Bird. Did he have a good work ethic? Weren't players in the 80s doing coke, drinking beer etc. Jordan was out gambling. Kobe's the only guy on that list I know for sure was a hard worker day in day out.
Mavs owner and governor
Thanks. How has this guy got that job? He seems to know nothing about some of those players he listed. Also, he's not the majority owner, is he? Didn't Mark Cuban sell to a casino mob?
And is governor just another term for owner? I haven't really heard that term used for NBA.
He is Miriam Adelson's (casino mob boss) son in law.
Ahh OK, darn, so he's as high up as it gets then and has the authority. Pretty poor evaluation for their trade. These guys are just making themselves look worse and worse every time they open their mouths.
Never been much for the Mavs, but respected the out of Dirk and enjoyed the ring against the Heatles. What ownership is doing here are echos of Donald Sterling sprinkled in with Vivek Ranadive. The fact the Lakers benefited from the incompetence makes it worse.
Yeah, it's particularly egregious to make a trade that has literally any chance at all of making a conference compe or better.
When that compe or is the Lakers, you can reeeaaaallllyyyy just go yourself.
"Anthony Davis out multiple weeks with adductor strain" - Shams
Wow, you're joking. I thought he'd be day to day when he left the game the other day. Man, that guy's body ing sucks. Great player, but man, Dallas fans must be going off right about now.
Trade a top 3 player in his prime for a porcelain china doll and not even call any other team just to check if they can beat that deal-
i mean what could go wrong?
china doll is going to dominate and stay healthy for 10 years at least….oh wait!
I expected this to happen someday, but the very first game? LOL This is just too in comical.
The most crooked deal in NBA history, maybe even all of sports, bar none.
The very first game after he proclaimed in the first quarter he's here (he must have been saying "I'm here" to the Dallas medical staff). LOL. This is some . You couldn't even script this, it'd be too unbelievable.
Yep, like I said, if you scripted this trade, it wouldn't be believable, but here we are.
270lbs huh?![]()
Yup. Lakers would have cap space for a max player det year. At least the Mavs didn't lose him for nothing tbh.![]()
