Super Bowl LIX - Eagles wins 40-22

[Mr B]

Most rational people view a conference championship as something to be proud of and try to build off of. Since you know, it means they were close to winning it all.

But since they don’t care about it and it was basically the same as missing the playoffs, they traded their franchise player. But somehow traded their franchise player for a win now player who’s worse than Luka. Which means they made themselves worse in the short term and long term, without getting bad enough to even tank properly.

This is why people should care about more than just winning it all. Because when you don’t, stupid **** like this happens.

Now when you say worse do you mean on offense or defense? Or do you mean avoiding the Buffett?

[Mr B]

What I don’t understand is if only one game matters each year then why watch any of the other games?

Also, I think it’s weird that the people claiming Super Bowl wins are the only thing that matters are the same people that have bragged about dak prescotts record against the nfc east.

There are fun moments throughout the year win or lose. If your goal is to only reach the Conference Finals why watch the SB? Yall should be having your parade this week instead of preparing for a meaningless game.

Someone seems a little upset over his team overreacting to a finals loss and trading his favorite basketball player.

Yea that trade is beyond crazy. The league needed Luka in LA to save the ratings.

It’s definitely a terrible trade but there are some positives. Defensively the Mavs are MUCH better after the trade. There’s also been legit concerns about Luka’s conditioning (or lack thereof) and the fact that he was due for a $345M extension this off season. That’s an awful lot for a guy that doesn’t like to stay in shape. The funny thing is he’s no longer eligible for that extension by being traded.

They still have the assets to make another move by Thursday’s trade deadline too.

If Dallas doesn't win a championship in the next 2-3 years (Window) this trade is going to look really awful if you're a Mavs fan in 5 years. They'll be in a complete rebuild by then.

1000% agree. Nico Harrison might actually get lynched if the Mavs don’t win at very least 1 title out of this.

Either way, I'm willing to bet that within 3 years, he'll be gone. At that point they'll likely have to tear it down & start over.

The highest goal is to reach the superbowl, and win, but that doesn’t mean that there’s not other goals and accomplishments that are made along the way. I’m happy that the eagles made it to the Super Bowl but I’m not satisfied, I want them to win. But if the eagles lose then I wouldn’t say it was a bad year. I didn’t expect them to be this good to be honest with so many moving parts on the OL and defense and new coaches coming in on both sides.etc

By the way, I’m a laker fan that was an AD fan long before he became a laker. I think it’s unfair that he hasn’t won a DPOY award yet. Maybe him always missing games plays a factor there, I don’t know. But he’s a super fun player to watch. Kinda bittersweet for me because I am psyched for Luka but also gonna miss ADs all around game. Bigs that can shoot have always been fun for me, and yes I was a dirk fan.

Their two stars are already into their 30s. Yeah if they don’t win very soon then it’s gonna be real bad, could set them back for a lonnnggg time.

Would you agree that the Lakers acquired Luka to capitalize on Bronny's prime?

Definitely. The Bronny statue is inevitable. Maybe his dad gets one too, I don’t know.

Someone seems a little upset over his team overreacting to a finals loss and trading his favorite basketball player.

Yes it was a colossal mistake. No two ways about it. You NEVER trade a generational talent in his prime. Especially when he’s already taken you to the Finals. He’s massively popular in the city and pretty much loved by everyone here. He was supposed to be our next Dirk. Better than Dirk! Guess what though, sometimes owners and GM’s are **** idiots and don’t give two **** what the fans think.

Also as a Mavs fan I’ve seen this before. This franchise has a long history of giving away generational talent. In the 80’s it was Mark Aguirre. In the 90’s it was Jason Kidd, who was younger than Luka is now when the Mavs traded him. Then they let Steve Nash walk and then let Jalen Brunson walk. So this is nothing new.

As far as the team right now, they’re still really good. Davis is averaging 25/11/4. He’s also a DPOY candidate. Adding him to Dallas’ front court makes them a top 5 defense (if not the best). They should also be the best rebounding team in the NBA by far. So for the short term they might actually be better, at least better suited for the post season. Long term, they’re ****!

There might be an entire new ownership in place in 3 years. If the gambling vote doesn’t pass I could see them gutting and selling the team.

So, Howard Schultz is running the Mavs?

Schultz owned the Sonics before he sold it to the OKC group. He struggled to get approval for a new arena & then sold to the highest bidder (OKC).

If I were a Dallas fan, that would be my biggest worry tbh. An owner that completely sabotages the organization & sells it to someone who wants to move it.

I don’t see them moving the team. Dallas is too big a market not to have a team. Even if they did move the team Dallas would be first in line for an expansion team. Again this is nothing new. Don Carter owned the team in the 80’s and did good for the time. He couldn’t keep up with the times though and had to sell. That’s when Ross Perot Jr bought the team. He didn’t give a crap about basketball. He was a real estate guy and wanted a new arena (he owned the land). He was cheap. He traded a 23 year old Jason Kidd (who was my Luka). Then Cuban bought team once Perot Jr got his arena.

The Dirk years were the most stable this franchise has ever been. Most young Mavs fans had been crying for Cuban to sell the team. They thought he was the worst owner in sports and wanted him gone. Well they got what they wanted.

Seattle is a pretty big market (12th). But that didn't stop the owners from approving a move to a much smaller one.

LA went 20 years without a pro team due to stadium issues.

Don't let market size fool you. Especially when you mix sports & politics. No one is safe in that regard. Trust me.

I just think the NBA is wanting to expand instead of moving a team. There is a $6B buy in for new franchises and the NBA needs that.

And I’m not saying it can’t happen because obviously it can. If it did though Dallas would be first in line for an expansion franchise.

Both Seattle & Vegas are getting expansion teams. It's been in the works for some time. Despite the league dragging it's feet.
