    Mavs aren’t done, they’ll add a wing.
    They're essentially betting that Luka will be Leonard/Zion and not trusting his conditioning, lifestyle, body and don’t want to pay him what would be the biggest contract in NBA history.
    In saying that, they could have got a heap more if they shopped him around.
    Been following the NBA for decades, this is the craziest move I can ever remember. I thought the shams post was fake haha

      Just feels like the Mavs are placing a big bet that life will not be rosy with "Future Luka" and they believe the AD/Kyrie partnership is 'something'...let's face it, the West is pretty open right now with OKC the only stand-out and maybe they're right.

      As great as Luka is, he is depressingly annoying to watch - the constant whining to the refs has him firmly on my shitlist and he can stay there until something changes. Lakers games are gonna go for 4-hours if he and Lebron are on the court at the same time...every play will be debated and argued and it's going to be excrutiating.
      Yep, pretty much. He has a small share but has no final say in operations.

      He was a big Luka fan though and said he'd never trade him. I know they're just words but it's interesting he tried building around Luka, and only 12 months after selling majority shares they trade Luka.

      Like you, he annoys me. I don't think they'll miss him as much as some think but I AM surprised they took a mild offer. I mean, AD himself has had his critics, far from durable, and is 32? It's a "win now" move but it feels like they only squeezed the orange once..

        Kyrie Irving what in the flat earth.

        Is there some kind bending shit going on in Texas or something? Has Kyrie started drinking the fluoride rich tap water?
