This is a silly question to begin with, but I honestly don't have the answer at the moment.

I will never cheer for the Lakers. No way.
I don't care about Luka right now, he has not fault in this trade so i don't hope for injuries or stuffs like that.

But i hope Lakers will never win a ring again. That's sure.

I hate Lakers with passion.

But I did ask myself this question: "What if Lakers get rid of the fake goat and then pair Luka with Jokic, will you like/support them?"

I am very very torn... :nonono:

I hate the lakers and it’s my brother favorite team and all he has been saying is I can’t wait for Luka to come to the lakers for the last 2 years. Dude woke me up out my sleep to tell me Luka got traded to the lakers.
Unbelievable

But as a Mavs fan I became a fan of Luka, so I’ll continue to root for his success. He didn’t wrong us so I can’t be mad at him. But he better not start staying in shape or play defense on the lakers.

It's funny to me because a lot of Lakers fans don't like this trade. Even on these forums, they still value AD much higher which is weird. I totally expected them to be insanely happy but even when the trade happened they took it very lightly and were upset that AD is leaving lol. What i constantly read is the same BS narrative "Luka doesn't play defense and he's too fat".

Even the latest reports that Nico had a bigger trade on the table with Lakers but Pelinka convinced him that Luka is a risk because of conditioning is very strange. But that was Pelinka probably being strategic and Nico simply a total dumbass.

Isn't this saying you wish him not to be better than who he is right now, in other words not rooting for his 'ultimate' success?

I'll watch all games I can, west coast time slot is my morning gym time, and I'll cheer for him.
I didn't follow the NBA live since I left the US in late 2000s and I didnt follow the scores even after 2012, the reason I was back following the league was Luka, and the fact I had much more time than before.

Well, some of them have been talking crap about him for so long that it's hard to make a U-turn and just enjoy the news. It's not so much about Luka as it is about themselves. Most of them will come around, I guess.

If another team puts the right players around Luka I'll watch.

Either way, it's going to be fun to see the demise of the Dallas Mavericks. This franchise is done and thoughts of championship under Nico the shoe shine boy post Luka are delusional.

Nico the shoe saleman talked about winning....

LOL LOL LOL LOL the Mavericks led by Luka Doncic who Nico had ZERO to do with getting here were in the finals last year you arrogant tone deaf cretan.

That explains.
You and Lakers are made for each other. Please go and never come back. You won't be missed at all.

Any Laker fan talking like that is BS. Just disregard them, the Lakers were stuck and had no way of even winning a chip to end Brons career. Once he retired they were going to go through weak rebuild. Luka changes their whole situation.

Whoa he can stay the way he is and have a successful career. But he’s still a laker so there is a limit. I have to decide whether I’m ok with Luka winning Rings without us.

Seriously guys, how can you watch or cheer Lakers games after what they did to us?

The Pelinka-Harrison connection killed our franchise.

Same thing can be said about Mavs too. How can we watch the Mavs after the blatant betrayal?

I intend on supporting Luka. As far as him winning the Lakers a championship, I can't support that until Lebron is gone, and it still depends on who represents the East in the Finals.

Ultimately, I hope Luka ends up leaving, but yes, I will support him to have personal success for the rest of his career.
