Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

[Jmaciscool]

I appreciate this constructive critique. I will make a forum announcement later to say ALL Luka posts be contained in this Luka thread. Further I will unstick this Luka thread from the main page. 


I don’t want this place to delve into an echo chamber. I think we are all dealing with an unprecedented moment that has quite literally never happened in the history of the NBA. I don’t think it’s unreasonable some people are still wildly negative about this franchise nearly a month later.


But I’ve read your words, I agree with them. I want this place to have a better conversation. On the whole though, those with rational, more reasonable things post less and less frequently, and we are left with emotional reactions. 


And if I am asked by the more reasonable crew to delete these emotional reactionary posts, well what are we left with? I suppose I am asking everyone to be the change we want to see, rather than constantly complain about it.

Also as someone with he ability to modify and delete posts, I don’t know what you are referring to when you said one of the biggest contributors got their post deleted. I didn’t do any thing like that. Please let me know what happened so that I can look into that.


Finally, I do this moderating thing for fun. The Mavs are fun for me. I don’t get a dime doing any of this. I am trying to cultivate a place where we can have reasonable discussion. But I am no expert. I apologize you feel like this place is trending in the opposite direction of where you want it to be. Bear with me and KL. We’re trying. 

Until then, let’s try and be that change. Thank you for making a nice constructive post.

Tbh, this board has kept me more tethered to the Mavs than the actual team has. I was ready to give the Mavs and NBA a long (maybe permanent) break, but I couldn't stop reading this board and I got sucked back in. Appreciate all the work that's put into keeping it a great place!
