That’s the best trade the could get, I would’ve thought at least the clippers could offer more than that

I'm not either, but the Mavericks got Luka the true 2nd running mate that they've been looking for, so we'll see if Luka can change his ways.

Lil Mountain one of the few ball dominant players that found a way to elevate his game with Bron, if anyone can do it it's him

This is a win win for Dallas. If kyrie does what he been doing with the nets, which is hoop, they can make a deep run. There is no real threat in the West

If kyrie doesn’t wanna stay, they can easily do a sign and trade and get the same picks back and a better player than both smith and dinwiddie combined.

I think they can do it. The main hesitancy I have with it though is the fact that Cuban isn't the type of hold his tongue and brutally honest to a fault, so I can totally see him and Kyrie butting heads at some point.

Yup.

the supposed name brand teams (LAL, GSW) are not magically going to get their shyt together and fight it out with the rest of the bottom half to get that 8-10 seed.

I don’t have faith in Memphis to make a deep run and they are a fukkery liability on any given night. Zero in on knocking off Denver and just ball out to the West finals. Can’t see who would’ve instantly benefited more than the Mavs and they didn’t give up “much”

Only one sadder than LAL is Kemba. No 10 day contract for him now maybe come back to Dallas
