There has to be some sort of collusion going on, wouldn’t be surprised if Adam Silver fakkit ass was involved somehow to get ratings up.

Why risk alienating an entire city and fanbase? I’m mad that we even traded Luka, but It’s extremely sus that we didn’t shop around if they were set on trading him. Their would’ve been an all out bidding war for Luka and instead we get a weak ass package from the nbas golden child…
:gucci:

fukk this ownership group, my enthusiasm for the season just took a nosedive.
They don’t care. The Mavs are moving to Las Vegas.

Last summer the Knicks traded like 4 first rounders for Mikael bridges. But Luka only gets traded for one pick plus AD??? This shyt is absurd
Brooklyn didn't get any player worth a damn. Dallas got Anthony Davis!

Brooklyn wanted to blow it up. Dallas thinks they improved. Not the same thing.

This team is solid but we got fleeced long term. Trading away a generational superstar is dumb, but they could’ve had at least 5 first round picks in return
You could’ve done that and been like the nets they got 4 KD and them picks not really all that as of rn. I think draft picks are overrated. You got a top 5 player back it’s not like yall got role players.

Exactly they keep talking picks without acknowledging they got fukking AD
AD not the player y’all think he is:mjlol: he a great player but he’s 32 years old and injury prone

Luka is worth AD and multiple first round picks, another team could’ve had a better deal but the nba wants their precious lakers to be in the forefront

AD is literally a top 5-7 player. Is Luka not injury prone he injured every year. What are you gonna do with multiple draft picks that will be in the mid round to late round anyways. The nets got 4 picks for KD and 2 outta the 4 so far gonna be around the 20-25 range.

They don’t care. The Mavs are moving to Las Vegas.
If the mavs didn’t relocate to another city during the worst competitive era of their entire history (the 1990s) they won’t move now. They’re too ingrained in the city’s culture and sports scene. They will easily stay in the 5th biggest media market in the US. Their new owners have deep pockets to keep them in Dallas too.

Vegas is a much smaller media market than Dallas. Half of the Las Vegas population are out of state and foreign tourists :mjlol: :dead:
