great news, Mavs fans!

The real reason the trade went down

 

[captain bill]

They won’t veto it. Anthony Davis is a current all star averaging 26-12. This isn’t like when the Lakers were acquiring superstars for the corpse of Andrew Bynum.

They could’ve got a lot more draft picks elsewhere but unlikely a better active player in return.

They also aren’t trying to sell the Mavericks

AD is about to 32 and everyone with a pulse knows this trade is Nike-backed thermonuclear garbage. Even Shams tweeting it had to say he wasn’t hacked. I obviously know this isn’t the same as the CP3 trade but it still needs to be vetoed if there’s any interest in keeping the NBA from turning into pro wrestling

So the ghost of Vlade still somewhat haunts the Kings as Luka is now a Laker in the Pacific Division and we get to see him 4 times a year instead of 2

You can bet every single Laker game for the rest of the season will be flexed to national television with Luka getting 30 freethrows a game. God help us

This trade makes zero sense for Dallas. Why would they do this? "Ok, we will trade our 25 year old, top 5 player in the sport to you for your very injury prone 30+ year old all-star". Makes no sense.

 

[Tetsujin]

No one’s happier about this trade than Jerruh Jones, who no longer has the most embarrassing sports franchise in Dallas.

 

[Chupacabra]

Lively is out for a while. Probably a reason they did the trade

Yes, but they needed to trade Luka Doncic to address that problem?!!?!

 

[KingsFanSince85]

AND because "defense wins championships".

It’s even funnier because this false axiom is ridiculous.

A ha, so the old I'll eat my way out of town deal.

Hey I'm just as shocked as you are, seems like there must be more to this story than meets the eye

To be fair AD and Lively is nasty.

Except AD is about to be 32 yo and is made of glass.

Yeah, like the league colluding for the Lakers again

 

[Tetsujin]

Except AD is about to be 32 yo and is made of glass.

He’s also currently injured lok

and Vlade will be seated court-side. Shameless

If this trade blows up in both teams' faces nothing would be better.

He has a point!

also "willingness" to sign the most lucrative contract possible? No, I don't want that...

He's still the one that made that video because the Kings drafted Marvin Bagley. He's still gunna hear about it lol glad to know people get at him over it

So true. You trusted your instincts and stuck with it

No super max for Luka.
