BREAKING: Shams: Mavs Trading Luka Doncic, Maxi Kleber, & Markieff Morris to the Lakers for Anthony Davis + FRP

[CallMeKahn]

Mavericks should be relegated to gleauge for this stupid trade.

If this is the straw that broke the camel's back in order to allow Relegation in North American sports, I'm all for it.

Rob after AD talked down on him in the shams interview

[Decipher]

My Nets got an absolutely absurd return for Mikal Bridges while he was playing rubbish

Mavs: we sort of, thought about, might have talked to one team about Luka

[RyderMike]

Mavs: We want AD
LAL: no chance in hell.
Mavs: for Luka
LAL: I'm booking their ubers to the airport right now

It's very unlikely to happen, but It would be pretty funny if the Mavs win the chip this year with AD dominating and Kyrie playing out of his mind while Luka never gets back to his best for the Lakers due to health/weight issues.

That's the only scenario where the Adelson's and/or Harrison won't get lynched or have to flee the country (or to LA).

They had a sex tape of Mark Cuban. Its the only explanation.

Anyone have the link? Asking for a friend..

Far more likely that the Mavs win than the Lakers but neither will make it to the Finals

This why the rich will always stay rich in the NBA.... No small market team would have been able to pull this trade off in the shadows... Amazing how he does from Dallas to LA Lakers. How convenient

That DeAron Fox to the Spurs trade notification is going to hit like a 1 on the Richter scale now

[HotRocks34]

In this post trade podcast (they cover the Mavs), at some point fairly early on Tim Cato says that Nico and Luka may not have worked well together.

That I could see. Luka is not Nico's guy, he inherited Luka, and Luka may not be the biggest Nico fan, either.

So it might be best for everyone to go his own way. Nico gets to build the team the way he wants and Luka gets a fresh start.

That would still be a blockbuster. This Luka trade doesn't make anybody a powerhouse.

Imagine that trade happens an hour from now. Even Spurs and Kings fans would be like "Yeah, cool. Whatever..."

Unironically yes. Silver has a responsibility to save the mavs fans from the single most incompetent move any GM has ever made

If Silver steps in, I'd be somewhat pissed only that he didn't also veto the Gobert and KAT trades that were insanely stupid moves by Minny.

I actually think SILVER IS BEHIND THIS..
He was aware and approved it, as Lakers got their next Witt..Magic..Shaque..Kobe..LBJ..so the business in Hollywood valley and NBA revenues can increase.
On the other hand after the Mavs revenue in Dallas bottom rockets because of this, new Mavs owners will get green light to move the franchise to Vegas

Potentially huge win-win for NBA, Lakers, Vegas, and New Mavs Owners.
Loss for everybody else.

Hope NBA fans in USA will stop paying for tickets and streams becuase of this **** and NBA will lose even more..

What an absolute reach.

To think Silver was involved in discussions at all makes no sense. That's not how this works.

I'm sure the league's financial/transactions department has to sign off on it to ensure salaries work and it meets rules of CBA, etc

But to think Silver is behind this in order to move a team to a different city... cmon

[robillionaire]

Well at least the mavericks have someone in the all star game now

[VFX]

League is scripted.

Nobody can seriously tell me there was no other trade package in THE ENTIRE LEAGUE better than Anthony Davis and 1 first round pick for 25 year old LUKA DONCIC. Foh

Why the Lakers? Makes no sense.

Might as well watch professional wrestling at this point. This was called in by the league.

Fox and a first for Wemby.

The Jazz need to print some shirts saying "Cap Dumpster". They got three seconds in the span of a week for being used.

[Sofia]

Is this like trading Babe Ruth?

Because they’re both fat white guys, yes

Mikael > Luka, because I believe Defense wins championships
