So Dallas trades a generational talent who carried them to The Finals the prior season for Anthony Davis.

And the GM says it's about defense and "we can win now."

There's more to this story.

I am in shock. Mavericks made the finals last year with basically this same team. WTF are you doing?

As a Thunder fan I'll take it though

um... what?

This is the most ridiculous trade I have ever, ever ever ever seen in my life, in any sport.


Luka is 25, top 5 player in the league.

AD is 32 next month and washed.


Dallas could have gotten a LOT more for Luka than this.


what the hell is going on?

This is definitely the most stunning/out of nowhere trade in NBA history (least in my lifetime following the league, 1992)

Absolutely devastated for Mavs fans to say the least

THIS SH#% FELL INTO THEIR LAPS!

How did DALLAS approach the Lakers with this sh#%? what in the world.. :lol: :lol:

Lakers are probably positioning themselves to get some big man with Austin Reaves now.

Can't have this little defense in the backcourt

Lmfao, the Lakers get bailed out everytime they run their franchise into the ground with poor moves.

NBA was stale and needed a spark

Lakers get their next star and the narrative for a dull season changes

How do you not hit up the Grizz, Thunder or Cavs and ask for Jackson, Chet or Mobley + other players, how do you just zero in on 31 year old AD and some 2029 pick when Luka is only going to be 29. The Lakers future picks are worthless, if anything is going to motivate Luka to get in shape it'll be getting traded like this and playing with/working out with the 40 year old guy that's his favorite player.

I cannot believe they didn't go to other teams, who the hell trades a 25 year old superstar for that return??


Like I said, WHAT THE ****???

This is obviously fishy and there must be foul play involved.

Yea, they’ll probably get Embiid or Jokic for a few seconds soon enough.
