Neither one is going to compete for a title, or do anything except put up gaudy stats.

Dallas has a :mjpls: fan base as evidenced by the number of non black posters like @Codeine Bryant and @Blaze500, so Luka is perfect for them. They’ll spend the next 10 years making thinly veiled insults about his black teammates and complaining about how he needs more help.

Atlanta has a black fan base so Trae is perfect for them.

Like folks have already said the Suns and Kings messed up more than the Hawks.

The Suns employed his old HC in Europe and not drafting Luka already cost one person his job.

The Kings would've gotten the shot in the arm the franchise needed.

it was this part for me how do you sign this random Ass head coach and don’t draft the player. Now I understand why they drafted ayton but I don’t understand why they hired that coach and subsequently passed on luka. Kings further messed up passing on luka... I’m just not going to knock the Hawks seems like one of the trades both teams benefited from.

People that really think the league would rather force Zion to New Orleans instead of New York gotta be the most retarded on the planet

If you wanted to force Dolan out and have him get attacked relentlessly by media nationwide when there are sketchy owners never even seen then yes you gotta be a dee dee dee. A lot of these leagues started with guys that weren’t so rich even in their time but in the last twenty years think about how much money the league has made off the not so rich owners selling teams to people that are actually wealthy. The NBA started with eight teams and for years they have been talking about getting to 32 teams (they want at least 2.5 billion as a fee for new teams) Back to old owners a lot of these old owners were able to secure deals where local TV rights would make them wealthy.

I live in New York why the fukk do I have Bull games on WGN. The Buss family that owns the Lakers are Cash poor that’s why Kobe was going to be able to buy the team in the next decade (Similar to how the MLB got Jeter the Marlins) the Forum where Magic Johnson was as they say “having sex with groups of people in the shower” was owned by James Dolan until he sold it for 400 Million to Steve Ballmer last year. Jeanie Buss only worth 500 million. A billion is a thousand million. Cant talk NBA without mentioning Lebron in his second season (2005) the CAVS were sold to Dan Gilbert for 375 Million thirteen years later the team was valued at 1.3 Billion. Personally net worth wise Dan Gilbert is worth 43.1 Billion. That’s 43 thousand millions and one hundred million. The Brooklyn Nets were sold the last team sold outright in 2019 and it in total it cost 3.3 Billion dollars because the new owner Tsai also brought the Barclays Center for 1 billion. The Utah Jazz sold off a majority interest for 1.66 Billion last year.

When teams get sold it bumps up all networths of all the teams and owners it’s one of the reasons why the owner of the Hornets is richer than the owner of the Bulls despite the owner of the Bulls being 26 years older and owning the Bulls since 85 when the owner of the Hornets played for him. I’m talking :mjlit:


So yes there I think there is a plan to get Dolan out. A lot goes into the Knicks especially where they play because MSG is very expensive and it’s a lot of bullshyt with it being on top of Penn Station there have been problems since the 60’s and with long standing problems there are always some people who think because they are smart they can just go and solve said problem without any feel of it. Who ever tries to buy the Knicks most likely would have to go to court with with the MTA, NJ, Port Authority, and others.

fukk that Billion with a B shyt anytime you see a billion it’s a thousand million so today Bezos worth 186.9 Billion let’s round that up to 187 Billion so he really worth 187,000 Million.

lol you can’t even tell the difference between Deandre Hunter and Cam Reddish

And I’m well aware you said Hunter was your favorite. Doesn’t make it any less of an absurd statement.

A defensive specialist 4th option is you favorite over a top 10 player. Good stuff, breh.
shows how little you know about basketball. Deandre will be an all star. Keep dikkriding the whiteboy though
