Yeah Sportscenter just said they confirmed it's real. WTF would Dallas do this? This is mind bogglingly stupid.

Luka has a 15% trade kicker too. This is dumb lol

Unless Luka has lost the bottom half of his body ala Dewey Cox, only getting one first and a 30 year old Anthony Davis makes no sense. It resets the entire market. Who is going to give any firsts for Butler or Lavine now?

There has to be more to this story. You traded a 25 year old star for an oft-injured 32 year old and a single first round pick?

And of course, it's LA being gifted a superstar in their prime... Classic scriptwriting 101.

Mark Cuban isn’t very smart. The last few years on and off the basketball court have proven that to be true.

Mavericks chose Kyrie Irving over Luka. Actually insane.

That might be the most stunning trade in NBA history.

Next up, Middleton for Maxey.

This is like the Pau Gasol trade all over again. Trading a star to LA for 10 cents on the dollar that the rest of the league doesn't even know is available.

Cuban doesn't own or run the Mavs anymore I thought?

That's fu..ing insane. How do teams keep handing LA stars like this?

I am dumbfounded.

Holy ****, never thought the Mavs would trade Luka. At first when I saw this I thought it was fake.

Ron Swanson · Post #1878 » by **Ron Swanson** » Sun Feb 2, 2025 5:32 am

Absolutely insane. I’m rioting in the streets if I’m a Mavs fan.

Did Doncic tell them he wasn't going to re-sign? That's the only way I understand this for Dallas.

This is the wildest trade I've ever seen
