Luka Doncic traded to Lakers for Anthony Davis (Shams) He might be hacked?? IDK* ITS REAL DAMMIT

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

shyt is still unbelievable, you just don't trade a perennial All-NBA player unless he asks for it. Not only that but you don't even put the message out league-wide that said perennial All-NBA player is available to maximize the return. I just don't buy the weight concern narrative, that's a bunch of bullshyt put out there in an attempt to save face. This team was literally just in the fukking NBA Finals. I'm gonna call it right now and say this is the worst trade in NBA history for a team who had a (potential) all time great and fukked it up. And like I said I love how Davis has played this year and he's been able to stay on the court up until this point, point is however they could've gotten way more. But I need to know what the real reason for this shyt is because I just don't believe the weight shyt. Ownership just being cheap I can maybe buy but still that's a tough sell....

Even that doesn’t make sense as they could have still moved Luka even with giving him the supermax and getting a boatload in return.

AD averaging 25/12 and cats talking like he's Bismack Biyombo

Mavs are already the top rim-protecting team in the league, and then add an elite one

Ya talking emotionally if you think this is a bad trade for Dallas

Long term it is obviously is based on Luka’s age, which is the point.

Bron is about to dip on the Lakers without informing Bronny

Lakers to Bronny when Lebron is gone

I honestly see the Mavs taking a big bump in the West

Lakers might end up out of the playoffs/play in due to this move

Even the whole ownership being cheap you could have just let kyrie walk as he has a player option he's not going to pick up .

Even Luka with 11 other bums would have been better for the future of the franchise than this

This trade really exposes the difference between Luka doncic stans and actual Dallas mavericks fans. The former were Mavs fans as long as he was there. They followed the team as a result of jumping on the great white hope bandwagon. They were Fans of his name on the back instead of the team logo and name in the front. Now that he’s gone, they don’t have to pretend anymore. They won’t support the mavs again. Many of These people are following Luka to LA and changing their fan allegiances to the Lakers. They’re behaving exactly like Bron fans who pretended to support the cavs, heat and lakers during all these years. Wherever their favorite goes, they will follow him just like groupies.

The latter are shocked by this news, but after a while they will emotionally recover, come back to their senses and continue to devoutly support the mavericks with their hearts, dollars and minds. They will always be loyal to their favorite team regardless of what happens because their love of the team is bigger than their love of any player no matter how great he is. True fans live vicariously through the success of their own team, instead of living vicariously through the success of a individual player.

the reactionary and emotional reactions following the trade also show us that the casual and fair weather fans outnumber the diehard fans.

Loyalty should only be for teams that win a lot as a fan. Diehards were created before free agency existed. They are rare and outdated

Just woke up to this news... Crazy...

Has anyone heard from Anthony Davis dad? Inquiring minds would like to know.

Conspiracy theory: AD knew about this deal behind the scenes and was good with it

One of the funniest trades ever. Don’t give the Lakers the chip yet. They need some defense. With these trades people gonna always say someone could have gotten a bigger haul. It doesn’t work like that always. There is a contemptuous relation here.

Most of them are Kobe fans.

You're right but almost everybody in LA are Kobe Fans, one day you'll understand that

Hard to imagine Luca “getting his act together”. Father Time is going chop him down quick, I think.

he's 25 and just left the finals and some would say he wasn't even in peak form cuz he was still chubby

This post was from last year but it still rings true, Tatum just won at 26



He's too young for y'all to even suggest he's gonna be a dub, and this his first time actually being called out on a world stage, that type of shyt motivates people

 

[Trojan 24]

They're just trying to cope Remember they kept telling us we'll "go back to being irrelevant" once Bron retires. NOPE!

"When our Daddy leaves y'all gonna be trash for a decade "
