I'm sure this has already been posted, but how would everyone have felt about an aggregate deal of:
Mavs trade Luka, DFS, Maxi and Morris
for
Kyrie, AD and Christie
If that trade had happened, I think it would've seemed slightly more palatable, but the fact that Nico had already won by buying Kyrie low, it makes him selling low or cheap on Luka look even worse.
The fact that the Lakers still had the assets to immediately swing over to Mark Williams is what pisses me off. If the Mavs had that and could use it to upgrade the backcourt, I think more of us could have accepted this deal as a redistribution of creating a more balanced team.
