Good day for Dallas.

The ironic thing is that he didn't want to go there. He was trying to force his way to LA. KD (PHX) and Harden (PHL) got their wish and it didn't turn out well for them.

I think Kyrie enjoys playing with AD and Flagg and compete for a championship without Lebron.

Big part of the predicament Mavs found themselves in was the idiotic Martin trade, it hardcapped the Mavs at 1st Apron with 0 space to operate, and made them lowball Kyrie to be harcaped again at the 2nd Apron with only TPMLE available, no space for even 1 vet min contract.
So, No, not a good job Nico, Kyrie should have opted in and extended to total 150/3.
Mavs also would have reset repeater tax clock w/o the deal, now I think they are considered repeater tax offender (3 years in the last 4).
Defense wins draft lotteries!

Yeah I like it. I think keeping him cheap the next two years is worth not getting the 3rd yeah guaranteed.

Him and AD on matching contracts makes sense with the plan Dallas is pushing.

What's this foreign language you speak Zimp? Never have I seen those words together arranged such a way.
