If you're Harrison, you're betting that AD/Kyrie is a championship duo, rather than just a "win now" duo. I mean, that had better be the position you're taking if you're trading away a young MVP-caliber talent just scratching the surface of his prime. I still think it's foolhardy. And insane. Personally, I don't believe in AD/Kyrie as a championship duo, but let's assume for a moment that they're good enough together to challenge for a title. Who wants to give away the future to go up against the OKC juggernaut if your window is as short as the Mavs is now? Klay's a shell of what he once was. And AD/Kyrie struggle to stay on the court. As an organization, you can work on getting Luka into better shape. But good luck trying to stop injuries from happening to injury-prone players.
Maybe the Luka trade helps us in a roundabout way if Fox is enticed by going to LA to play with Luka. He was obviously interested in the second fiddle role with Wemby and an equally enticing position just opened up in a market with enough endorsements potential to mitigate some of the Texas tax savings. And Klutch very obviously likes LAL
if spurs don’t trade for him now they’re costing him money and there’s now a new very serious possible second suitor for his services that wasn’t there before. I assume it’d have to be some cap magic to get him there next summer. But maybe it’s something to motivate SAS

After that Luka to the Lakers insider bs, there is zero chance we’re winning a Fox trade.
Also, we don’t owe the Spurs jack ****. I hate them almost as much as GS. Pop hailed as the greatest coach of all time. Not to mention he’s been gifted two of the greatest power forwards of all time for their entire careers with an all star cast surrounding them for what 20-25 years? Then has the world’s fastest rebuild fueled by magically landing the next great generational talent? RIGGED ASS LEAGUE.

You don’t think Jokić is top 10? I think he’s top 5 player I’ve ever watched but you could be older than me. He’s for sure better than any version of lebron I don’t care that lebron has more rings either. How many rings does Jokic get if he ring chased the last five years playing with Tatum or SGA.
Well he’s gonna be racking up wins and championships with the LA whistle and Ant Man in a couple years.
Also mavs GM was considered “like an uncle” to bronny before the draft and was a Nike executive and we’re supposed to believe this was a good faith trade when he only talked to LA

I sure wouldn’t mind PJ and or Gafford coming our way but doubt anything resembling 3 first are in the cards considering the Luka fiasco.
Fox needs to be moved, and Dallas could make sense as well as Miami. I’m loosing faith in Monte to make that move at this point. Don’t think he’s got the chops to navigate his way around what has become an increasingly aggressive business

We are screwed.
We are not trading Fox and our season is over. The GM has no Balls
Fox has no Balls
You need balls to win, not just basketballs either.
Say what you want about this ridiculous trade, Mavs have a better chance of winning today than they did yesterday. They got rid of two ball handlers and now have one, who happneds to also be a generational talent.
Mavs will be fine. It's us I'm worried about

They should have done the deal on Friday, when "all went quiet," and taken Castle off the demand sheet. Now everything is screwed up and no one knows what to think or how to evaluate a player or a trade.
Not to mention, the Sacramento Bee headline:
"De’Aaron Fox trade rumors bringing surge of ‘bad energy’ to Sacramento Kings’ locker room"
I know we want a good return, but the captain dithering while the ship is sinking is never a good look. The Kings just gave up 82 points in a single half last night.

It’s absolutely terrible what has happened to the Mavs overnight. If any fanbase understands, it’s us. Having said that, I still can’t help but watch it all unfold further. That GM has absolutely lost his mind. Not one thing has been said that has made the trade even remotely understandable or acceptable.

Initially he did but he was relieved of that after some fixed time period. As happens to every CEO/President figure that sells the company they found and has some stay on period, to their surprise and horror they get "fired" as soon as that contractual period ends.
Guitar people recently have Randall Smith as an example when Gibson bought Mesa/Boogie amps a few years back and unceremoniously fired him late last year and blackballed several artists who talked about it.
