. Even the players know how insanely lopsided this deal was.

Every player in NBA should have no trade clause, or at least playesr on the max deal to safeguard themselves from corrupt morons like Nico.

In most industries, this is seen as corruption. Imagine if the mayor of your town awards one of his boys a fat contract to build the local mall instead of going through an open and transparent tender process.

Ok so I’m not saying it’s a bad trade - cause I think the trade is crazy… and I wouldn’t trade Luka… except for SGA, Jokic, Tatum or Giannis… cause Luka that good- I would need one of the other big 5 back…
but why should Nico care if Luka brought a house IF Luka showing up out of shape and drinking like a fish and not listening to the team and refusing to be disciplined? People acting like the owners didn’t sign off on destroying their future- something CRAZY has to be going on with Luka… cause there is no way you trade one of the 5 best players in the world for being over weight
We gotta start thinking something is up with Luka - rick car actually quit- KP pretty much wanted out- Dinwiddie alluded to something last year on Gil’s pod cast- Windhorst called Luka out during the finals - the taking the beer away on live tv… are some weird red flags -
But at the same time Kyrie LOVES Luka and kyrie isn’t the type of guy to co-sign on a bad guy - as weird as kyrie is, he doesn’t really mess with degenerates
All of this is just weird - but the truth has to come out - but I do not think the owners let them move Luka if Luka isn’t considered a problem

"That's crazy. They traded probably the best scorer in the NBA at 25. And he didn't even know about it, so... There's a lot more digging someone needs to do as to why he got traded cause you don't just trade him at 25. He just went to the Finals... I feel bad for Luka man... That sucks."

Absolutely insane. Harrison bowed down to pelinka because they are friends. This should make all other GMs not want to deal with Pelinka any longer.
Pelinka actually convinced this idiot that the lakers were doing them a favor.Jimmit79 wrote:At this point I want RJ to get paid
