If Dallas really wants to move Luka, then fine. But why the rush? Why the Lakers for that package?

I genuinely do not know how the Mavericks will ever recover from this. Why would any Mavericks fan ever bother watching a game again when you know the owners are actively working for the Lakers?

What are the Lakers thinking? How can 2 ball dominate players work together?

What are the Mavs thinking? They trade away their team identity.

Wild thinking. Surely now they'll package Gafford & others for another piece too; curious to see what their roster will look like after trade deadline.

I still cant believe thats the best answer they gave

LUKA IS 25! You dont trade a player of his caliber for a 31 year old AD who is up and down on his performances.

Lol at calling Davis a win now move for Dallas after they just traded Luka freaking Doncic. Am I in the twilight zone?

How does L.A. always have these transcendent talents land in their lap. Ridiculous

Lakers are thinking about the next 10 years. LeBron is done after next year

If you add LeBron to this trade it would have been closer to fair value....makes me wonder if LeBron could end up in Dallas as part of a separate move somehow?

I don't see how that would happen (especially because, Reddick/LeBron), but it would make this make some sense: the Mavs take a shot for this year to go win one in the West where OKC is the only contender right now. This would also be LeBrons best shot at a ring, and aligns with Kyrie being older as well.

The Lakers would be punting on the short term but would build around Luka moving forward.

I know that isn't going to happen, but it's the only way I can make it make sense

But on the other hand, West just gotten easier to go trough. Maverics Luka was a contender, Luka on trashbin Lakers squad with grandpa Lebron is not going anywhere.


Mavs were done this season with no Luka sending them to the bottom of the play in. Lakers have a decent cushion and can wait another couple weeks and still hold onto a top 6 seed. Luka in the playoffs is a problem

Reaves should be traded for a good big if they can get one.
