Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

[SleepingHero]

Ok, let me try again without naming names.  This is probably fan fiction and not even second hand.

It was relayed to me that Dumont broached the subject with the agent of taking less than the super max this summer.  This was met with laughter.   He then did the same directly with Luka who also laughed and joked about what Dumont was worth.    This pissed Dumont off and told Nico that he would show him and to get rid of Luka.   Nico pushed back.   Then another demand was made to get rid of Luka.   Luka brought in Kidd who couldn't believe it.   Nico asked Kidd what he wants and Kidd says he needs an all star...someone like AD.    Said they all knew three weeks prior to the trade.  

Again, I would not take this as real.  I just found i interesting.

Yeah that reads like total fan fiction. Not sure I can buy that given AD is going to be making exactly what Luka would’ve made next season had he gotten his supermax deal.

That’s why the “owners won’t pay the supermax” idea doesn’t make any sense. They just really didn’t believe in Luka.
