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

The 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
It's a bad trade, no matter how you spin, because you've thrown away your whole future for a quick run to a title that might not ever happen.

Nobody is saying AD is a bum. We all know he's an all-time great and future Hof, but trading away a young generational star in their peak for a past their prime, still elite yet injury-prone big man who's past 30 and sometimes inconsistent is a terrible move. Maverick fans have a reason to be angry because it's not just about winning a quick title but building a winning culture with a franchise guy, and Nico, the GM, sounds a bit delusional in his assessment of the team's ceiling making the trade even more ridiculous.

He claims they're in win-now mode, but the only reason why they were in that position was because of Luka. He was their championship window. So you trade away the guy who brought you there, but for some odd reason, you still think you'll go far without him? That's just crazy; this may go down as one of the worst trades of all time because of hindsight and the tone-deaf nature surrounding the Maverick's decision to part ways with a once-in-a-lifetime player over trivial reasons (weight, defense, etc).

It's like when people were thirsting for the Celtics to mess up their future by trading one of their franchise players, Jaylen Brown, who many believed wasn't worth the money, for an older and injury-prone Dame Lillard or Kevin Durant for a quick title run when the smarter thing was to stand pat with one-half of their franchise guys and it turned out to work in their favor as they've won a title and now are in position to win a few more, potentially.

Some fans gotta stop being so quick for their teams to throw away their younger franchise stars for older and sometimes injury-prone stars just to hurry and win a title. You gotta learn to be patient. The Celtics did that, and it's paying off.

Knicks fans < Lakers fans

Honestly. Laker fans have real ass history to be arrogant unlike the Knicks. I used to HATE the Do it Mitch talks, but how many times do they have to pull off wild top level acquisitions across all of our lifetimes before we say that franchise is different?

Even removing Kobe and Magic who they drafted. They went and got Kareem. They went and got Shaq. They went and got Pau. They almost got CP3 until Stern stepped on it. They went and got Bron. They went and got AD. They went and got Luka.

I genuinely can't think of any team really close historically to going to get stars and it works out in their favor to a crazy degree, maybe the Yankees are second place to them.....and maybe Ferrari in F1, but their weight is kinda undeniable at this point across all sports. We can't call none of them nikkas who cheer for the Lakers delusional no more when it comes to it being a destination.

It's undeniable the league favors the Lakers. Somehow they always end up with the best players. You can go through decades and the Lakers always have the best players on their team -
  • Wilt
  • Kareem
  • Magic
  • Shaq and Kobe
  • AD
  • Lebron
  • Luka
It's like Real Madrid. But at least RM has to pay crazy transfer fees to get their players. Other teams just give the Lakers their best players.

This Luka trade has a lot of question marks that the league SHOULD look into but they won't.
Don’t forget Pau. I know he’s not at the level of the other players you named, but he’s was traded for KWAME BROWN and Marc Gasol (who had yet to play at this point). That trade made the Lakers legit contenders. I mentioned him because he’s an example of a player who was given to the Lakers.

The mutha****in BX
:dahell: it is
Ad is turning 32 he's only going to get worse and worse.

In three years ad will be 35 and doncic will be 28

In the NBA currently out of the top 25 scorers only Bron, curry, durant are over 34. And all three impact is barely there

That's why this trade is horrible Davis prob has like 2-3 seasons left at this level

Doncic has like 10
Ya keep bringing up age as if Luka hasn't been playing professionally just as long as AD

He's already peaked as a player, the Celtics exposed him, and he's a fat fukk

Makes it hard to believe in this league man.

Other players are openly like what the fukk are the Mavs doing?

Other executives are blatantly saying they would’ve emptied all of their assets…this dude didn’t even let anyone else know Luka was available?!

It's not a bad trade at all if we only talk about these next 2 seasons or so. But after that it's not really a good one. They keep themselves in the hunt if they all stay healthy, but they all in their 30s
