I mean they’ve accomplished something this year, whether they can win it all remains to be seen.

 

Luka owned them and he’s gone. AD ain’t doing shit to them if there was somehow a playoff matchup, especially from the bench. Those days are over, advantage OKC. I’d take OKC over the Lakers right now too but would be interesting to see if Luka still dominates them from LA.

They haven't accomplished shit but have the best record in the league...if they don't make a WCF's this year they'll be a laughing stock with all the turmoil in the West and the Lakers/Clippers probably being the biggest threat.

Also the MAVS have owned the Thunder, luka or not.  They lost 3 games to the Mavs WITHOUT luka this year.  Don't' forget the "Mayor of OKC" is PJ Washington

    Dirk going to LA for Luka’s debut. Probably the biggest FU yet to this front office.

    Isn’t trading your star player and having all your good players injured and then raising ticket prices the plot of major league II?

Agree they have to make a run this year, in fact i think they need to make the finals and probably win it all for this regular season to have meaning.

Yeah i'd agree...it would be akin to the Mavs in 2007 blowing away the league and faceplanting in round 1. OKC has a much easier path this year IMO.  Unless the Clippers are legit I dont' think anyone in the West beats them...just not a sold on the lakers after the top 3.

I literally can't believe what I just read. These motherfuckers traded him in the middle of the night without telling him, cost him $115m on his next contract, then tried to capitalize financially on his return. These are the people that own the Mavs.

Today Jason Kidd said it was “kinda cool” that the Luka trade was compared to the Babe Ruth trade. 
They really don’t want me to root for this team anymore. 

We're really doing this?  Making him sit through this sentimental stuff right before the game

ha.  you knew this was how it would go down.  Fuck Nico and the fat french fuck.

Pretty good half for a fat out of shape injury prone alcoholic who smokes.

Kidd is absolutely a big part of this, fuck him.  

Some furniture company is clowning the mavs ownership and nico with a three-part commercial about trading a sectional.

I really hope people act a fool. I need more craziness to happen so the magnitude of how ridiculous this whole thing is still resonates 20-30 years from now. But hell, on paper this is a game AD should absolutely dominate, so they'll probably end up cheering their asses off like good little soldiers.

have to say very impressed with the Suns tank job to get into the lottery...

Worst trade in any sport ever. 

Yup. The Mavs have no offense at all. If they just had an all NBA superstar who is an offensive scoring machine, instead of an aging injury prone big man who’s good for a run of the mill double double, and an aging 3 point shooter who can’t hit the broad side of the barn these days.

too hilarious. fucking Kidd.  the TO is probably to tell everyone to double Luka so he doesn't get a 50 spot.

The single dumbest move a local franchise has ever made. A generational player in a league where your franchise has to luck into or strategize heavily to get a guy like him. And you gave him away willingly. You didn't lose him to free agency or to the gaze of the Lakers. You chose Nico over him.

Crowd chanting “fire nico”

Must be loud because it’s very clear on tv audio.

Lakers have no big men, should be a 30 and 15 night for Davis.....13/11  with 4 TO's and a -10.

The funny part is they chose Jason Kidd over Luka.  maybe get a real coach and Luka can win some championships. nope blame Luka and ship him out, keep Kidd.

If I'm being honest, I don't see any trade that makes sense for Luka. You know what you had with him. No draft pick is going to give you the same confidence. 

What a performance.  Happy for Luka and hope it helps him move on.  Fuck Nico forever.    Don't know when, if ever, I'll feel anything for this franchise again but it certainly won't be as long as he's employed.

It is all time stupid.  a) you don't trade him to a west team and b) you get AT LEAST 2 all star level players and 3 first rounders.

That stupid bitch Nico and fat fuck bitch tits Dumont killed my fandom if this team. Will never ever root for them again, snd I tuned in late just to see how many points Luka dragged his nuts on this shit ass team for. I wish I had a more eloquent way to talk shit about Nico but stupid bitch is all he deserves.

Exactly

I mean if they don't make a run next year I don't see how they survive.  It seems like the season ticket renewal rate is probably pretty low.  Good buddy was a 25 year season ticket holder and didn't renew not even for the trade itself but for the way Dumont and everyone in the organization acted post trade shitting on Luka on the way out + having the audacity to bump up prices year over year on top of it.  Just a clueless organization post Cuban and they deserve every bit of the failure coming their way.  My hope is Dumont doesn't get his casino, gets tired of being hated locally and sells the team, then maybe we can all get back on board.

Even worse because I like the players. They are tough and play hard.

Especially one who seems to have been really happy to be here.
He always appeared to have genuine feelings for Dallas and Texas along with the fans and teammates.

Might have been discussion on prior pages but from a 3rd person account of someone purportedly in the room (so take it for what it's worth which isn't much), but the story is there actually was some push back as it related to the terms of the deal (i.e., if we're going to do this we should go to market and get a better return either from Lakers or others as this isn't enough) and Nico just said, no, this is what we are doing and shut down any dissent.   I'm just choosing to believe that is accurate so I can focus my disdain on Nico and the fat moron that signed off on it.

Cuban selling the team to that haggard bitch was terrible. The shoetard and pig man burned the god damned franchise to the ground with the trade. 
 

fuck em. They are dead to me like they are for lots of you.

after 2011 cuban has been an incompetent bumbling fuckwit.  he’s dropped the ball on all sorts of shit.  donnie nelson brought us luka. 

Anyone yapping about getting a better "return" can get fucked. You don't trade a player like that. Ever. You fire the coach and everyone in the front office first. 

I know these people probably only travel by private jet or helicopter and those don't seem to have many issues, so all I can do is hope and pray that the next time they have to slum it in a caravan of Escalades, maybe the right one gets hit by a city bus.
