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.
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
This isn’t about Luka. This is simply corruption. Niko is literally a Lebron/Laker con man that was a sleeper cell and activated. The fact that the Lakers only gave one pick says it all. Anything to maximize their talent load around LeBron is what happened here. The free throw disparity is proof that the league is operating all the way to the ground level. I mean even Reaves gets a superstar whistle.
you can say that but you are ignoring all the warning signs that something is up with Luka. the drinking, the on court temper tantrums, the weight issues and the injuries, and the coaching quitting and the intermittent lack of effort on defense. and just watch this....

this is last finals....you don't think this matters and may have led to trading Luka? the Mavs are living with Luka everyday and they apparently got tired of him being out of control and they moved him....
its crazy to think BUT ask yourself this...would you have moved Allen Iverson in his prime or would you have rode it out with a player that was talented as all hell but undisciplined? This is starting to feel like the Mavs saw what we learned with AI, a undisciplined all world talent can get to you to the finals but can't beat a team of talented stars committed to winning and doing it the right way....and the MAVs apparently decided to move on from this generations AI EARLY....
not saying I would do it but in hindsight it makes some sense....even if I wouldn't do it...it makes sense.
