lol. Mavs just threw their future and any chance they have right now away. Lakers games are going to be a track meet and will lose a game 170 to 150 this year but at least they have a building block for when LeBron announces his two year retirement plan.

Doesn’t work like that. The Hornets were an NBA owned team at the time, which is why they could make that decision. People like to think it was a big conspiracy but that’s basically it

Both teams look so much worse. Lmao. This is hilarious.


We might look worse but we've got a 25 year old superstar.

It was a long shot that we would be contending this year anyway.

some Laker fans are angry as hell with this trade and i understand where they are coming from i initially was annoyed but this is a trade for the future as well.

Lebron is 40 and AD is 31. How many years more would they have had? AD would only be getting worse as he ages from now on.

We gave up a lot of defense though. I dont know if there are anymore trades Rob will make but we could techincally put Gabe as the PG and Reaves at the SG now.

Gonna miss Christie man if we could keep him and only give AD and the first it would be the biggest heist in nba history :lol: :lol:

Because there’s some bs for the lakers going on. This type of **** seems to happen every generation

Mavs had Gafford and Lively for 48 minutes of great rim protection and I'm supposed to believe a competent GM decided trading the franchise player for ANOTHER CENTER was a good idea??? This is literal collusion

If the league doesn't veto it then the legitimacy of the product is done.

Oh I'm sure the Lakers have more trades pre planned by Silver, and you're about to see what Luka looks like with friendly reffing for a change

I would not be surprised if the Lakers did this without consulting LeBron. Depending on when Luka returns from injury and how severe it is, this could end up just being another wasted year for LeBron. If that's the case, then I could see LeBron immediately asking to be traded.
