RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - BigDirk41 - 02-02-2025 How the hell did we not get Austin Reeves too? That would have at least made it tolerable.

He says defense wins chips No one is disagreeing but this is a terrible haul for an in prime top 3 player regardless of his warts. Nico needs to be investigated. They could have got so much more. How are you going to sell me AD who is much older and always hurt?? RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - RoyTarpleysGhost - 02-02-2025 The Mavericks were motivated to move Doncic due to his constant conditioning concerns, sources told ESPN. There had been significant frustration within the organization about Doncic's lack of discipline regarding his diet and conditioning, which team sources considered a major factor in his injury issues. Doncic has been limited to only 22 games this season due to a variety of injuries. He has twice strained his left calf since reporting back to Dallas before training camp in late September, although the Mavs only reported the fall injury as a calf contusion, sources said. Doncic has not played since straining his calf on Christmas. While Doncic was relatively svelte by his standards when he reported to camp, his weight ballooned to the high 260s early this season, sources said. He sat out five games in late November, when the Mavs listed him with a sprained right wrist, an extended absence to allow Doncic to focus on his conditioning. He had a similar early-season layoff in the 2022-23 season. Doncic was in line to receive a five-year, $345 million contract this summer. RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - hakeemfaan - 02-02-2025 Franchise can move to Las Vegas. Bye RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - SkenfromLMF - 02-02-2025 Couldn't afford to take players as Davis had a 15% Trade Kicker... Money will basically be a wash RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - SirMyztiq - 02-02-2025 The fact that the Mavs are leaking heavy about Lukas conditioning and commitment to stay healthy throughout the season, to give up on a generational player at 25 years old by trading him. The player *known* to hold grudges? I wouldn't be surprised if this trade turned Luka around and got him that maturity he needed. The Mavs are betting *that* won't happen. They're also betting that AD can get healthy and stay healthy. Most shocking trade in history of the NBA. Everything will be under the microscope from now on. Nico put his entire career on the line for this. I hope they offer trade in or something for Luka gear. This is insane man..insane.

I actually agree with Nico on this, but I one million percent disagree on the return he got. It's just not enough and if we don't with the championship this year, this will haunt the Mavs forever and hell it probably will haunt the Mavs even if they do with the title this year. Luka will finally take his conditioning seriously now. We can bet on that. He's going to be super motivated now. RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - RoyTarpleysGhost - 02-02-2025 I have the same concerns about Luka but AD and a single first is breaking my brain. Trying to think of what other stars we could’ve gotten plus a bunch of picks. RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - RoyTarpleysGhost - 02-02-2025 This move had to be ownership driven. They didn’t want to give him the $350 million.

RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - Jym - 02-02-2025 If I was Kyrie I'd demand a trade RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - HoosierDaddyKid - 02-02-2025 They traded him because of his lack of conditioning and weight concerns is what I read. He's hurt too much like I've been saying. RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - hakeemfaan - 02-02-2025 (02-02-2025, 01:07 AM)BigDirk41 Wrote: This is my problem. Right idea by Nico, but wrong execution. I posted Sarr, wiz FRP, Bilal. I would have at least somewhat been ok. Plus you are sending him to the EC. You send him to the Lakers for glass man AD?

The only bright spot is we now have a Mav at the All Star game..lol RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - RoyTarpleysGhost - 02-02-2025 (02-02-2025, 01:09 AM)Jym Wrote: If I was Kyrie I'd demand a trade you sure Kyrie is against this trade? When Kyrie had the entire team together practicing prior to camp, Luka was pounding beers in Slovenia.

But there's no way you can defend this trade. Are you defending it? RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - SirMyztiq - 02-02-2025 Not even Austin Reeves? Lakers got to keep both 1st rounders. Sorry Luka, I love you buddy but I hope we got the better end of it. RE: Luka Dealt to Lakers - hakeemfaan - 02-02-2025 (02-02-2025, 01:13 AM)SirMyztiq Wrote: Not even Austin Reeves?

He is just another guy who gets exposed in the playoffs. There were many other better deals to be had. |
