The one time he had where he got to the finals he didn’t capitalize. Don’t matter who the better team was, he didn’t win. Mavs already invested so much time into Luka and it’s not benefitting them in the wrong way, and he’s gaining weight, he’s a defensive liability.

    So let me get this straight...
    - The NBA ratings are down and declining
    - The Lakers are pretty much the most popular NBA team globally
    - LeBron James will likely end his career rather sooner than later (which will result in even lower ratings)
    - Luka Doncic is one of the most popularising young superstars in the NBA
    - The Mavericks want to trade the young superstar and don't even call other teams to see what they can get
    - The Lakers get Luka Doncic in the most illogical trade of all time
    - The Lakers are set for the future
    - Everybody talks about the NBA again and everybody will watch Doncic at the Lakers
    Don't get me wrong, the Lakers are not to blame here. Everybody would take that deal. But all of this sounds so fishy.

    I still can’t believe this. It’s a bittersweet moment for me as a Lakers fan losing our primary defender in AD 💔 I hope our organization treats Luka the right way cause Dallas fans truly didn’t deserve this type of pain. I also hope the Mavs takes care of AD. Those two are gonna ball tf out 💯🔥

      @@DodjersBoy this is a horrendous trade for the Lakers now they will absolutely have no defense whatsoever against Elite teams. They’re gonna put up a ton of points but so will their point opponents. They have absolutely no rim protection. It just doesn’t make any sense.

    This is a Adam Silver special. He pulled up with black suvs last night and said make it happen. Lakers are always getting superstars for weak trades that would normally require like 4-6 first round picks for any other team.

      Cut it out. The knicks got robbed in every deal they did for the past 25 yrs. Only the last couple has been ok. They just gave 5 first round picks for Bridges. The KAT deal was a fair trade.

    Lakers need this guy now: Robert Williams III, Trail Blazers: Williams is the much more affordable Portland center, but there's a reason for that. He's played just 17 games for Portland, and his injury issues were a constant problem in Boston. If you want a shot-blocker who covers ground and dunks, this is your guy. If you're lucky, you're getting the Defensive Player of the Year candidate the Celtics got in 2022. You just have to pray his body holds up through a long playoff run.
