I feel bad for those fans.

The fact that Dallas has no pick control at the end of the decade isn't lost on me either. Like they just basically self immolated, and for what?

They're making it hard not to believe in this gambling conspiracy theory (I was already on board with it).

Yeah Kyrie getting hurt aside, trading Luka and then jacking up ticket prices is the behavior of an ownership group that wants fans to abandon the team.

He understands the game at a much higher level than his predecessor. I think he's one of those coaches like Mazzula or Spoelstra whose coaching could make the difference in winning the series against a better opponent, and with those two...






It's that they have two power wings, most teams are really only equipped to handle one, I don't think I've ever seen a team in NBA history with two power wings that are both hall of fame creators. We only have OG, he can't be on both of them at the same time, the Cavs don't have anyone, the Celtics are probably the only team with the perimeter to defend them. I think LeBron and Luka can hunt SGA for switches, he's a good defender but he's too light to defend them.

So the NBA has to let them move to Vegas, because their fans don't support them. Or maybe Texas will authorize sports betting so the Adelsons can stay in Dallas. Either way...

Deuce is an excellent defender but Luka and Bron are out of his tax bracket, they're too big to put a 6'2" guy on.

This is where we need Frank Ntilikina. He made one good defensive play on Lebron when he was on our team.

Crazy...but it really highlights one of the most depressing realities of basketball. One bad landing, one wrong movement and your team's season can be over quickly.

What's going on over there? That entire team exploded with injuries and insanity based trades. They never should have tanked to keep our pick! This is what you get when you mess with us!! Karma police!!

Nope. They robbed us of a pick by tanking and laughed about it. Bye bye suckers. I hope Jalen Brunson gets that ring and laughs in their faces.

Seems so, this just accelerated the process even more so for a potential move of the team.

Kyrie not playing another game until he’s almost 34 is a real possibility now, wouldn’t be surprised if AD is shipped out in the offseason and the team is sold off for parts

Cuban and Nico robbed the Knicks of a pick. If the optics behind the new ownership's directive is true, fans of not only Dallas, but of the NBA should be up in the arms. I wonder if the Board of Governors are okay with the obvious direction.
