I’d love to know where all this belief that the 2025 version of AD can put a team on his back and carry them to the Finals was last week. Bc I surely don’t remember a whole lot of y’all suggesting it :skip:


AD been balling crazy this season. Plus lakers fans were saying over and over we should trade him while he still has real superstar value. The timing was perfect. I think the Mavs can contend this season

PJ Washington>>>>Bron right now
Kyrie has never been able to lead a team to playoff success as the man. Neither has AD. Lebron was finals MVP during that single title run.
Despite looking good on paper i suspect this will be a mid team going forward.

Nobody knew the Mavs felt like this :yeshrug:

If I knew Luka was on the block id immediately would’ve said let’s offer AD and whoever else the Mavs want

nikkas keep downplaying AD cuz he used as a scapegoat by Bron fakkits.

AD was an instant title for us and still is the top guy defensively. And he’s been healthy the last two years. He literally lead the Lakers in damn near every stat On a title team and nikkas say he’s not a number 1. He’s way better than the way people talk about him.

AD was the man in 2020. Only in BronWorld can a guy who leads his team in every stat during a playoff run get written off like he was Pippen or some shyt.

He was a complete monster in the Bubble. It was also 5 years ago. He’s still elite but not as good as he was then and regardless of how you feel about Bron, 2025 Kyrie is not even on the same planet as him in 2020

Outside of Giannis, AD was probably da best choice for what this team needs. So i get it from that perspective.

Puttin Luka on da open market like that sounds good but that comes with a lot. Who knows if Luka would even sign an extension with another team besided the lakers and the media attention woulda been even worse than it is now.

I woulda kept him but this is clearly personal and not just business. He didnt wanns pay him that bread

I think this is what people are missing. In order to win a title with Luka, you have to have great rim protection and multiple All-Defense wings to support him on that side of the ball. He can carry an offense and against some teams get away with being a turn style on defense... but Boston put the gameplan and blueprint on tape on how to beat him.

Attack him relentlessly and he'll give up baskets, and then he'll fold mentally crashing out on the officials for not getting calls.
Why are you still posting this nonsense? Why are you putting all this emphasis on his defense, when other players were attacked too? Why are you ignoring the Mavs bigs were getting targeted on switches?

Why are you ignoring the fact that it was their offense which was the issue in the Finals, where nobody but Luka could score, consistently?

What have Kyrie and AD done in Luka’s position? You’re talking about what Luka needs to win a title, but neither AD nor Kyrie have been anywhere near the Finals leading a team.

Boston is an all-time great squad, overflowing with talent. They didn’t put the blueprint out to beat Luka. Their team is just that fukking good. You would’ve needed a team like the 2017 Warriors to beat them (multiple high-level perimeter scorers), or a team like the 2023 Nuggets (elite big man with a balanced supporting cast).

The 2024 Mavs weren’t that caliber of team.

You replace Luka with a prime MJ and the Mavs would still get their ass beat by Boston. Would you be in here still saying the same dumb shyt about MJ that you’re now saying about Luka?

I’d think not.

I'm not saying AD was pippen. Just saying he hasn't proven he can win without MJ on the court with him. In 2020 he was literally putting up the same number he always putting up in Nola. but in Nola he wasn't winning shyt. I don't think hes going to be winning shyt with Kyrie either.
being the man all regular season and coming through in the playoffs are two different things.
