robert williams is cooked

Nobody is saying AD is not good it’s about the process

Players that age and that talented never get traded to begin with

But not only that you got a 25 year old generational talent and you don’t even field other offers to see what’s out there?


Malpractice to the highest degree I’ve seen in sports

Naw breh...he ain't just good. He is all time great and top 10 in the league right now and 32 not 38. Being disappointed about Luka is fine, although he has his fair share of question marks that folks are speeding right past. I already addressed the process piece. AD is a beast and really and ideal pairing for Kyrie and Klay. It's all but impossible to get equal return in a trade. Give me the players that are better, younger, the money matches, that the other team would be willing to part ways with.

That’s a damn lie lmao

 

[VegetasHairline]

Im about how all the talk is about the Lakers and Mavs like the Jazz wasn't involved in this too lol

Danny Ainge: "I'm leaving here with something!"

 

[Houston911]

Is the nba gonna investigate this?

I’m smelling foul play

 

[Rekkapryde]

need to eliminate the max period.

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

The only SuperMax that actually worked out maybe just Curry. Every SuperMax has been meet with a decline.

That's because they were given to talent in their older ages and not when they were younger.

Talent like Tatum will be just fine as he will still be in his prime when the deal ends. The case with SGA as well with his upcoming extension.

 

[NoMorePie]

Teams don't wanna give supermax because it ruins flexibility. And not many players deserve it. And players want the supermax and then ask for a trade because team can't build the team because they now no longer have the flexibility BECAUSE THEY PAID THEM THE MONEY

 

[Sghost597]

These easiest solution to fixing FA Max situation.

You get two designated Max Salary Flex spots. So, that unilaterally two selected Maxes(FA,Bird Rights, and SuperMax) count the same against the cap for their particular years of service (Free Agent Max) , but that extra salary isn't covered by the CBA, but by the owners. Owners can choose to use them or don't for those cheap owners.

Man that nikka ain’t the messiah they say he is. He does the same shyt Trae does. Luka just taller and fatter. Both are elite on offense and trash on defense but somehow Luka is MJ/Kobe/Bron all in one to these cacs. They crown him MVP every preseason and it never happens

I wouldn’t have made the trade cause of the age differences but I see why they did




Every fukkin day

Respect the honesty. It's facts

 

[Born2BKing]

How crazy would it be to believe a Deshaun Watson like scandal about Luka is about to hit the media soon? That would justify this. Just saying

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

The more I think about it, the more I understand Dallas. They just didn't want to pay the money.

And they don't think Luka is worth it anyway. I don't know if I agree about him being "worth it" but, I can understand physically not wanting to pay $350M.

There's your problem there - stop thinking.

SuperMax only makes sense if your team is dominant and the core of your roster is built and locked in for a dynasty run. That's it

SuperMax only makes sense if your team is dominant and the core of your roster is built and locked in for a dynasty run.

If the player qualifies for the supermax based on the current qualifications, then it's unfair to tell them that they don't deserve it or screw them out of it in the process via trade.

Say whatever you want about Luka and his conditioning, but if there was one player that deserved the supermax based on All NBA accolades, then its him.

It’s not like it was a one off All NBA appearance that made him eligible for it like we’ve seen previous.

Both the owners and the players agreed to it as well as this new CBA, so it’s unfair for them to bytch about it now.

 

[GoldenGlove]

I read a statement somewhere that 70 percent of AD points come from an assist or offensive rebound. So now with Dallas he'll have to create more offense for himself and others and that's not his strength

Kyrie Irving is still on the roster. He's pretty good at creating offense
