I am still not sure this is real.

This is an absolutely terrible week to be a Dallas fan.

The lack of picks is the most telling sign of collusion. Leaving the door open for the lakers to add one more piece before the deadline. The nba has become a joke. Oh well, guess i'll just go watch the refs hand mahomes another trophy instead

More people will tune in for a bit now. Adam Silver trying to do whatever it takes.

I guess I have to apologize to Hawks fans because this trade is worse than the Trae Young/Luka trade.

Doing what they can to keep the Lakers relevant… but I gotta give JJ credit. I thought he would fail…
But BRON is just a freak this year… if he can get Luka to get into and stay in shape they could be a fav for the title.

I saw an online theory that the Adelson family is pulling a Rachel Phelps/Stan Kroenke and actively sabotaging the Mavericks so they can move the team to Vegas. That’s the only way this trade makes sense.

I’m so shocked and I am trying to find what makes this trade work and I just can’t find the words. This trade absolutely makes no sense. Are the Lakers just giving up on this season and moving on without LeBron? They now have no center and Luka has been out for most of the season. Obviously they are thinking long term with Luka but it just seems like they are telling LeBron this season is a wash.

For the Mavericks side of things is even worse. Why would they want to rely on 2 32 year old players who have never won anything significant without Lebron? Plus Kyrie can potentially opt out of his deal after this season. You just came off a Finals appearance just a few months ago and now all of a sudden you think Luka will never win anything for you? The whole trade makes 0 sense.

joke of a league that isn't worth our attention. without gambling the ratings would be under 500k - the interest isn't there and perception of the league is in the dumpster

Just how is that all we get? Do the Lakers turn down that trade if we ask for Knecht, and more picks? Absolutely not.

Even if Luka wanted out, it is a completely dogshit trade.

next up, look for the athletic piece on all the shite luka was doing and saying behind the scenes


Not giving $350 million supermax to a guy who shows up 20 pounds overweight and needs three months to play himself into shape.


That’s really their only explanation for this.

Luka had to request a trade right? Even then, the Mavs made a bad trade.
