Los Angeles Lakers are currently 2nd seed, while the Dallas Mavericks are in last place …

The unfortunate thing for AD is, it wasn’t because Luka was out of shape, it was because the Mavs kept playing him through injuries with an extensive workload which led to his issues.
AD is now going through the same thing. He stands no chance.

Same for meI am an AD fan and one of the few that pushed back on the trade being THAT bad. If it keeps going like this and he doesnt come back putting belt to ass we gonna have to re-assess his standing. The biggest issue for me is coming in out of shape after the blindside trade and how last season ended. I thought both he and Luka would be on some revenge tour shyt. Instead this nikka set his own record forto start the season

Dudes was really defending the Mavericks for this move too.
You don't trade generational players. Figure it out.

Folks were talking like AD in 2025 was some legit superstar. As if he and Kyrie who accomplished nothing outside of being Bron’s sidekick were gonna make Dallas some dark horse contender.

There was a group saying Mavs got the best front court in the NBA too and that defense wins championships
It is interesting that Davis turns 33 this season/in March, been in the league 14 years, yet has only been on a 50-win team once in his career (2020).
In the past, prime healthy Cousins was the scapegoat for not meshing, then NOP mgt was the problem, Bron-ball was preventing him from "taking the reigns", it was Russ fault, LAL mgt fault, "bad luck" injuries, etc.,... maybe at some point just gotta accept that carrying a team simply isn't what he does. It's likely not gonna happen in year 15 or 16.
Kyrie don't really be leading shyt as a #1 option either (in the few opportunities he had), and he'll be 34 this March coming off the torn ACL.

LeGM does it again
AD just hastening his decline in value so he gets bought out, then facilitating a return to LA. He sees the Lakers have legit leaders and scorers and wants that for himself.

I get the strange feeling Dallas is gonna tank hard and somehow get Anthony or Dybantsa etc in the draft....keep tanking until Kidd/Nico are gone and then let them load up on talent so a young white coach/GM can step in and shine.
