Not surprised, viewership is down.

This was the alternative to 10 minute quarters.

Surprisingly the Bucks did not a want Luka Dame and Kris Middleton as defensive anchors :dontknow:

Denver, Bucks, OKC, Spurs and Boston might be the only teams that say no.

The Mavs could have got Ant Man… and at least people would think well they traded for someone with upside…

Now the Lakers gonna have the next great Laker - top 5 lakers

Kobe, Shaq, Magic, Luka and KAJ

That is now the best 5 players on a single franchise

AD is still a top tier talent, he slots right in and the roster balance works. He’s by no means a bad acquisition.

That’s all I got lol

Teams would of thrown the kitchen sink for Luka and they could of gotten way way more.

In the short term, I do think that the Mavs are currently better. I wouldn't be surprised if they have a deep run this year.


The big problem is who runs the offense now?

Nah.

1-Jokic

3- AD

KD way out of his prime, Tatum some nights plays like he's top 3, and Edwards is the same.

AD is in there somewhere when taking defensive impact into account.

AD didn’t register legit MVP votes on
This board this year on the RealGM board and Luka always top 3-5- no one believes you. People started the year thinking a healthy Luka is the second best player on earth after jokic surpassing giannis.

But the fact that you have AD ahead of Giannis and Luka means you are either 12 or 13 years old- but you are not serious about ball.

This is the worse trade in nba or sports history - This is trading young Mahomes for Stafford


The fact that you have Wemby above him confirms that you're, at the most, 16 years old.

I got wemby ahead of AD going forward. The lakers were not winning a ring this year with AD and neither were the spurs with Wemby…

But here is the fact AD isn’t going to be no where near wemby two years from now

Again, I always knew Luka would one day play for Lakers as both the franchise and the city fit his personality and style of play way more than the Mavs but certainly didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Forgot that he just scored 42 and 23 boards against Charlotte. 36 & 13 agisnt the Warriors before that.

These numbers ain't normal and he's not getting all layup and dunks. Dude is getting floaters, taking guys off the dribble, face up pullups, and etc. While also playing elite defense,

Crazy. Is Luka big enough to play offensive linemen with all the conditioning/weight talk?

Never thought he would be moved, and for a 32 year old AD

Has more to do with the players around him. He has to make up for their defensive mistakes every night and produce on offense. Hes the ONLY reason they have a ring in the last few years. Have they won a play off game with out him?

LOL ohhh I see now. This thread is just a vehicle for some poorly veiled shots at LeBron.

How utterly boring.


Lol. Why are you playing victim for a billionaire? Thread has to do with AD and Luka. Get out of your emotions. It's ok to give credit to other players, bro
