I know he follows it up with it’s real but I still don’t believe it until I see it again

 

[Tetsujin]

Unless all the reporters got hacked at once. This appears to be real

Marc Stein and Fisher and Haynes all confirmed it. What the actual ****

 

[SLAB]

The Mavs somehow screwed up drafting Luka Doncic worse than the Kings did.

Like I can’t even comprehend this move!!!

 

[pdxKingsFan]

I knew one day Luka would ask out but not like this.

 

[Sluggah]

So confused.

 

[Angelo127]

I actually don't really have a problem with the move haha

I actually don't really have a problem with the move haha

it’d terrible for the Mavs. Terrible!

Passing on Luka was worth it if only to spare us the pain of trading him to the ****IGN Lakers for a soft big man who’s always injured and apparent one pick in five seasons lmao

 

[iowamcnabb]

Why would this happen?

 

[Angelo127]

it’d terrible for the Mavs. Terrible!

I think it's actually ok for the Mavs, I think they got better

 

[SLAB]

What’s Luka’s contract? Is he unrestricted after this year or something?

 

[Tetsujin]

I think it's actually ok for the Mavs, I think they got better

They traded a top five player in the league for an old AD and one pick.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Is this the worst trade of all time? Yes AD is awesome but Luka is top 3 player when healthy

 

[SLAB]

My god Laker fans are going to be insufferable and you know what? I’m jealous. And I’m still going to root for Luka.

 

[Tetsujin]

He’s one year behind Fox on the rookie scale max ladder

 

[Angelo127]

Right but I think it's a 1-2 year move. I see a Kyrie AD pairing better than a Kyrie Doncic pairing tbh so maybe Mavs are trying to win now

 

[iowamcnabb]

I think it's actually ok for the Mavs, I think they got better

AD is older, injury prone, sits out games and couldn’t lead New Orleans to anything as the best player in his prime

 

[ockingsfan]

Wow, thank you Vlade!

At least we didn’t have to go through the heartbreak that Mavs fans must be feeling right now! You must have known he would eventually screw the team, if it wasn’t the Lakers!

 

[iowamcnabb]

I’ve never been more shocked about a basketball move in my life!

 

[SLAB]

I’m going to venture into the Mavs subreddit. Wish me luck, fam.

ITS ****ING LUKA DONCIC LOL

Somehow the Kings are no longer the most depressing team in the league.

 

[captain bill]

This feels like permission to stop following the NBA entirely

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Whoever the Mavs new owner is is now officially the worst owner in the NBA if not all of pro sports I am not even sure Dan Snyder was that stupid.

Did the Mavs hire Vlade by any chance?

 

[SLAB]

Nico Whoever is a worse GM than Vlade Divac.
