Kyrie gonna fukk this up somehow. He'll probably take a vacation during the playoffs or come out in support of the Chinese ballon that just got shot down. He'll find a way :lolbron:
If this happened before the season started, Kyrie woulda pulled up to games with a Croatian soccer jersey on during the World Cup just to troll Luka

People were laughing a few days ago when reports came out that the Mavericks were looking to use Dorian Finney-Smith as trade bait to get a superstar in return. Not a bad deal for Dallas at all even with Kyrie being a headcase as they had to try something to get Luka a 2nd running mate which is exactly what people complained about them doing.
Also clears 35 million in cap space for them this off-season in the event Kyrie leaves they can go after someone else in free agency/trade market (Lavine)

Will Cuban give him the extension, or are the assets/players he traded not too bad to the point he can afford to let Irving go this summer?

Sports news outlets are thanking Sean Marks like crazy for giving them this on a Sunday to start fresh tomorrow.

Hope this sparks a good amount of trades and less shytty rumors ahead of the deadline.

Honestly team is absolute shyt without Luka. They needed a reason for him to consider staying and they needed another star who can actually contribute. This is a steep price but fukk it, might as well do it. Their team would be in the lottery without Luka
the biggest winner in this trade is whoever Kyrie's backup is. His minutes just went up 200%

How is this only what you offer for Kyrie? Rob is fukking ridiculous, the nets don’t want to increase their luxury tax, and you don’t even throw in an offer that is based around that goal??

Kyrie for Russ straight up wouldn’t work legally salary wise …they certainly would have added more to complete a deal

Worked fine in Cleveland with bron and kyrie
Luka was fine with dinwiddie and brunson handling

I dont see a schematic issue arising.
Bron and Luka are very different players.

Bron is looking to facilitate, and share the ball. Luka is much more ball dominant and score first mentality.

Kyrie is a dribble, dribble, dribble, dude. I already see Luka with the :beli: face as kyrie dribbles the air out of the ball and commits turnovers.

Outside of Play-styles Luka don’t seem the type of guy to be OK with Kyrie doing dumb shyt. Couldn’t imagine Luka in post game interview having to answer to why they had a group of hebrew israelites sitting courtside:francis:
