I dont see the problem - Jordan has jaundice from being an alcoholic, and missed a couple seasons from a gambling addiction.

Jordan wasn’t a fat ass

I’m still not overly impressed with Reaves.

For Mitch and Shamet you aren't impressed with Reaves?! It's not like we would trade an All-Star for him.

Mitch alone is worth way more than that. How quickly we forget how Mitch punked Cleveland.

He'd instantly be the Knicks best bench player and yes I get his defense sucks compared to Deuce

Reaves would legit win 6th man of the year if we got him. He's basically donte from last year but on steroids.

They've been getting steady season ticket cancellations since the trade, have officially offered current season ticket holders a refund for the remainder of the season if they want it (!), fans openly saying they're out in media interviews, and insiders/bloggers posting things like this:

This is brand damaging stuff that it may take years to come back from. I know exactly how those fans feel. Once people start saying this, you've lost them for good. I shouldn't even be mad because of what Cuban did the year before, but I can't help it. They did that entire fanbase and city dirty.

Imagine being a little kid in that area who roots for the team. Luka is probably larger than life to them, and they do this. You know where that kids attention will turn? To Los Angeles. Or elsewhere, anywhere but Dallas.

Franchise suicide. I'm actually hoping Kyrie goes AWOL now just to screw Mavericks ownership and Nico.

Nets just beat the Rockets. Surprising.

This is why they traded grimes. Max is nice. He should be starting over Klay, he’s washed

Never doubt MBD. There might be legs to moving this franchise

I don’t think we can beat a luka&lebron lead lakers team or a Kd&Curry warriors teams in a possible finals matchup as currently constructed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grimes and Yabusele for Mitch

I think people underestimated that piece.

Also look at you getting into 3D role players lately.

Daily mail! Mavs GM Nico Harris arrested for making worst trade in nba history.

After so many questions arose about how such a stupid trade could be carried out, an investigation led to the arrest of the Mavs GM. When asked by the press what specific charges Harris would face, the prosecutor said that one look at the trade was enough to impose a 10-year prison sentence.

And that's exactly why the 4th seed is more preferable to the third seed.

Celtics are clearly better than Cleveland. Beating the Cavs in the second round is very possible---we shouldn't play Boston before the ECF.

I think the Magic are going to put together some win streaks late in the season and nab the 6th seed. Imagine having to go through Orlando, then Boston and then Cleveland.

Money says he’s on the Epstein flight log and was blackmailed into making the “trade”.
What a terrible trade for Dallas and their fans.

He got his title with Giannis, so Mission accomplished. Got his contracts too. Milwaukee probably wants to get younger and more athletic but I'm actually not sure this makes them better.

lol I’ve always appreciated 3 and d players. Hence why I was the leader of the Trey Murphy bandwagon in his draft.. loved grimes.. etc.
