I've been working a lot lately but truthfully, still recovering from a maniac that nuked a Finals franchise into ash for the lulz. Nico has been running his mouth as of late saying he didn't know the extent Dallas loved Luka Doncic. That's just insane considering his entire job from the time he was with Nike to the GM of the Mavericks is to know that kind of obvious information. Every year in Dallas, July 6th is Luka Doncic day. Dude has his own day but Nico says he didn't know the extent that guy is loved in Dallas.

I'm still watching playoff basketball, but I'm not gonna lie, it feels hollow. I hope it improves over time.
I heard Luka had a meeting with ownership and it didn’t go good at all… this isn’t all Nico.. Dallas owners aren’t going to just let that go down without their blessing. They wanted him out for some reason we will never know. Conditioning is a weak reason. At least get back better in return. There is absolutely no reason why the Fakers got to keep Austin Dweebs.

Overall beyond stupid and a joke of a gift to the Fakers. Let’s just hope they don’t win shit for the sake of the league.

Latest news is that Patrick Dumont is "unhappy" with Nico over this because he doesn't know basketball and trusted Nico. Now, how much of that is true is unknown but the claim is that Miriam Adelson put her trust in Dumont, and Dumont put his trust in Nico, and Nico is a madman that hates Luka so much he was willing to burn a franchise to the ground. There is not a person alive that doesn't know Luka at age 25 is worth multiple players and multiple first round picks, and that includes Nico Harrison. So why was it done in this manner? Lakers get the gift of the century at a time when viewership ratings are low. Funny how that works out.
 
OKC's offense can be so stagnant sometimes. I do worry what it will look like against Boston given that they're both even being elite defensively.

I'm sorry for your loss, bro. It must be so hard to accept
 
Nobody ITT gonna condemn Joker for being a traffic cone out there because he can throw some passes to guys who build bunkers for a living

Nico also said there was no guarantee that Luka would have resigned with the team if they did keep him. That alone makes me distrust everything he is spewing to try and save face. Does anyone honestly think luka wanted out of Dallas?

I lol'd at this because Nico thinks Luka wouldn't want the 116$ million
 
I like the way the Clippers are playing I hope they win the series. The only reason I wanted Denver to win this series originally was that I couldn't and still can't trust Leonard to not get hurt and I don't think they could beat the Thunder without them.
 
Sweetwater goes for 38-18-11 in today's game and sends half of these cans home. Lloyd and Cooper probably average 34-12-10.

Luka would have never left Dallas. There are reports he cried when he heard the news. He had just bought a 15 million dollar house in Dallas. When he came back to Dallas for the Laker/Mavs game he stayed an extra day to do charity work in Dallas. So yea, Nico Harrison is literally the devil.
 
Hang in there! And yeah, the whole thing must absolutely suck for Dallas fans lol. I've never had any team I support fuck up this huge. Can't really relate.
I can't think of another team in any sport, that made such a retarded deal for seemingly no reason. There's usually some behind the scenes shit that forces the hand of the GM to get rid of a star in such a manner. There have also been terrible trades that take a few years to materialize into recognizing just how bad it was, but nothing like this. Right after a Finals appearance no less. I could sort of understand if they were treading water and getting first round bumped every year with no signs of improvement. But even then, you'd at least let other teams know and get a bidding war going.

Nothing about that trade adds up. Not one thing.
 
actually not a surprise at all
it was the last bus leFlop could catch and luka is the new driver hired by the nba in hope he can take some shortcuts others can't
