Amateur: LOL Mavs you stupif ducks

[Mark Celibate]

Said it in the another thread. Mavs franchise committed the equivalent of basketball harakiri..So cruel, so fast in one fell-swoop. You know it is bad when historical divisional fans (Spurs/Rockets) are feeling more sympathy than glee towards you.

yeah, that's what is surprisingly not being talked about enough with this trade. Dallas has ensured they will be blacklisted indefinitely or atleast until ownership changes entirely by future free agents. If a 25 year old phenom who's been five time All-NBA is traded out of nowhere because they don't want to pay him, then who the f*ck is ever going to want to play here? Dallas could never get free agents when Cuban was the owner, and even he tried to lookout for his players and was a genuine superfan. Now they have no chance with a socially awkward uncle Tom GM who has shown he will knee jerk historically awful trades and a shadowy distant Freemason family as owners who sacrifices baby goats to Moloch to get Trump elected.

Anyways, time to start filling out those bandwagon application forms tbh

This trade is just so stupid I wonder if Adelson did it just to spite Cuban after all the he has talked about Trump. Sounds ridiculous but give me a non-insane reason they made this trade then.

Relax your crack, Mark.

I still can't believe they traded him away and are now doing a smear campaign about how fat he is. Does Nico Harrison read this site?

Well here's an interesting conspiracy theory

[baseline bum]

JFC Luka just bought a $15 million house in Dallas last week per Chandler Parsons. He wasn't going anywhere but Mrs Le Happy Merchant just didn't want to pay him.

That has to be coming from ownership.

Ouch

maybe, I mean it's definitely not a basketball reason for sure. If you're a fan, there's no incentive to support a team that has no incentive to really compete or win a championship. This sh!t is becoming more and more common where owners buy a team they don't give a sh!t about and just treat it like any other casual investment. The A's are one obvious case but even the Red Sox in a big market with Fenway Sports Group who blew up their championship team and traded away Mookie Betts for nothing just so they didn't have to pay them.

Just came across that video, that’s a giod theory tbh

[Donald Sterling.]

It just keeps getting better

[LkrFan]

This is the stupidest ing trade I have ever seen in my life

[LkrFan]

Didn't even get much beyond Davis. This is insane.

Could the Mavs had called for young stars? Nope.

Ja
AntMan
SGA

Etc etc.

AD is the best player they could have gottenPERID

[LkrFan]

Where's monosylab1k's hummingbird ass these days?

[FkLA]

Does nobody else think the league played a role? Even if the owner is a cheap ass why make a secret pact with the Lakers of all teams? The Mavs could've started the biggest bidding war of all time if they would've informed other teams he was available.

[Donald Sterling.]

The smear campaign against Luka is actually hilarious.

Mavs didn't trust his ability to stay in shape and his conditioning, but somehow trust AD's and Kyrie's ability to stay healthy when they're on the wrong side of 30 and have been prone to injury.

Okay

Mavs supposedly didn't want Luka's agent to get involved by making it public that they were shopping him.

This has to come from ownership. No GM is going to on a guy he traded on his own accord, it's so unprofessional.

[DAF86]

They fumbled this.

[ambchang]

Watch for the league to reward the Mavs for helping the lakers. They will go on some deep playoff run or get some insane draft luck in the future.

It didn't even have to be a full blown public announcement. Like why not just make some calls to teams with players/assets you'd be interested in? You can count on one hand the number of players that teams wouldn't give up in exchange for Luka.With all the talk of viewership plummeting and even talks of changing the rules (quarter lengths and three pointers), it's ing weird that something shocking like this happens, imo.
