in the west, you're gonna need more than Luka to win anything.


Yes, but in the coming seasons? LeBron going to be 42, and ring chasing with Luka


Lakers ain't winning anything this year until they shore up their bigs.

They even had the courage to come up with the "defense wins championship" bull lol
if normal NBA fans are angry, I can't even begin to comprehend what Mavs fans are feeling :(

It's incredible, the Mavs killed their fanbase, destroyed their team because nobody will get behind them in Dallas, devalued their franchise by probably billions and made dudes like Ishbia, Dolan or Jerry Jones look like competent owners. And all of this with 1 move. You have to be an Einstein lvl genius to pull this off. My god, everybody needs to be fired! How can you betray your fans like this and trading your homegrown superstar to one of the most hated rivals you have? Dallas is dead now as an NBA Town. Congratulations!

This should also solidify LeBron as the best GM in the sport.

Just sign him and you are guaranteed to have another superstar dealt to your team. Doesn't matter if he is 45,50 or in a walker. Just sign him and your franchise will be golden.

For decades the Lakers have somehow tricked other teams in given them lopsided trades.
LeBron has that same effect.

Pair both of them together and you have a cheat code more powerful than the Konami code.

There's got to be something deeper here. If you want to break the franchise down, fine. Trade for assets, suck, move the franchise to Vegas, and get good in a few years. I don't buy the Supermax/Conditioning argument one bit.


Oh I buy none of the basketball related reasons because there's absolutely nothing that would make sense.
Franchises and fanbases DREAM about getting a Luka Doncic and Mavs just gave him away.
They didn't even try to get the best return, it's utterly bizarre.

Read on Twitter


there was probably one lowly, disheveled capologist working late into the night that decided to reverse engineer why the Mavs and Lakers needed that specific amount routed and had a moment like he uncovered some great government conspiracy and didn't know who he could trust and that would believe what he uncovered


I want to believe...

LeBron had nothing to do with this. He could end up in GS before the week is up.

I know English isn't your first language so by courage you mean the shamelessness of how they did that


Absolutely disgusting. You can't blame Nico Harrison he's just a puppet saying his given lines for his paycheck. Those pulling the strings in the background have gotten away with a heist and they know it

This is LA looking beyond LeBron. If anything shady is going on its with the Adelson's in Dallas.

What you guys reckon are the odds Jerry Jones make some mind boggling trade in the coming days just to get the focus back on him and the Cowboys?
