The question you should ask is how the Mavs organisation were incapable of doing what the Lakers (seemingly) and Real Madrid had no problems with. Clearly they failed to hit the right buttons in seven years. That´s their fault. I know that might not be fair, but it´s the truth.
But what´s done is done. Now it´s time for Dumont to f****** execute Nico publically, crawl in front of the fans and ask for forgiveness.
There is no healing until you remove the franchise killer from the arena.
Pay the best GM money can buy and sell off AD/Klay. I don´t think a single fan will give a f***, if the new GM trades AD, cause....
AD does not have the skills, the charming personality, killer instinct or the physical fitness to EVER overcome being the guy traded for Luka. Every time he misses two free throws, jogs around midcourt and then falls asleep there to cause multiple amateurish turnovers the crowd will just moan and groan. He only instigates the crowd further.
The team will be bad this year. Klay Thompson is so finished it´s not even funny anymore. -36.1 on/off.
Start the Flagg era with Lively and PJ Washington. That´s three players that love Dallas and that the fans will love back.
Maybe the utter shock of getting traded and losing out on a supermax woke up Luka than anything that the Lakers franchise has done. I am not going to absolve him there. As mentioned the Mavs were a circus but Dirk was always a professional. Bron has always been a high maintenance diva but has alwa been in top notch shape.
Totally agree with the rest of your post.
