03 Apr 2025 11:27:14
So the Mavs basically traded Luka for that garbage?

03 Apr 2025 15:31:41
not my mistake they traded Luka.
What can you get for a 32 year old injury prone player?
And what team has the assets to get him? He's only useful for a contender.

Dallas has two options. Pay Irving and built around him and Davis or start a rebuilt. Dallas own their 25 and 26 pick, so they have a two year window to rebuilt. (they don't own the 27 pick and there are swap options on their 28-29-30 pick)

07 Apr 2025 15:19:11
This trade can’t happen without a GM change in Dallas. there is no was he can admit it’s this level of, a, fail and keep his job.

08 Mar 2025 22:33:10
May Nico ready for a genius trade? To have at least a PG in the summer. : )

LAL Gafford, Smart
WIZ Vanderbilt, Maxi
DAL Vicent, 2nd

Finally Mavs should tank to get at least Traore as a new PG.

Afterwards the fat 270 pounds Durmond could sell the team at least having some young prospects, that a new owner and GM - after the clown Nico is fired - can build on.

Traore, Christie, Lively

04 Mar 2025 07:18:00
Short term success and culter. LMAO

If you play Irving that heavy he will miss the most of the games.

Mavs will trade Durant

DAL Durant
PHX Gafford, Washington, Martin, Marshall, Powell, 1st

And try to survice the next season and to stay health in the playoffs 2026 but I think there will be another suprising team, Houston, OKC, Nicks or Boston to defeat them finally.

They can try again and trade afterwards Irving, Durant and Davis finally to some 1st and start new. Really?

02 Mar 2025 09:01:03
By Mavs.

Davis is hurt, Christie has " 7 ".

Luca has 32 and Grimes has 44

Good job. : )

Mavs may be able to trade Gafford, Washington, Martins and a 1st for Durant to build a super team next year or two or three. But it will feel like to make your money with Bitcoin. Fair enough you can - succeed. But without me.

The heart and soul is gone. If I would have wanted to change I would have build on the young guys:

MAVS Maxey, T&E Kuminga
76er Kyrie, Thompson, 1st
GSW Washington, Gafford

Maxy, Luca, Grimes, Kuminga, Lively would have competed now and for years to come - imaging they would have won the ring.

Will not happen. Bye.

11 Feb 2025 08:14:28
Maybe Mavs should have a look on their mediacal and training staff - since they have move the risk of health Luca - but still get a player hurt - any game.

Maybe Mavs should consider a health an sportive livestyle - like the one, that the fat Durmont Jr. looks like. :)

Fire Nico
Fire the staff
Sell the team

NOL Davis, Kyrie
DAL 2x1st, Zion, Olynyk, Brown, LOL

Trade Davis and Kyrie to get 2x1st and rebuild on new owners. : )

06 Feb 2025 06:30:21
Im will become a Laker:

HOR Knecht, 1st, 1st swap
LAL Williams

I mean, this guy is genius. Sitting on two old stars, without a chance to win it all - but still in the playoffs, hence we low pics and you trade basically:

OUT Davis, Knecht, 2x1st, 1st Swap, 2nd
IN Doncic, Williams

Having probabily immediatelly a better team?! Having two young players, maybe some of best on PG and Center the next 10 years?

Great job!

Dallas was that underdoy, heart and soul, loyality, build and win - emotions. will have it never for Lakers - when I will follow them a bit. The only thing, what I am really looking forward is the next game DAL - LAL seeing LA winning.

06 Feb 2025 20:29:46
Hey I like our new LAL team

Williams
LeBron
Dorian
Reaves
Luca

Lets compare Luca over Kyrie, Reaves over Thompson, Finney over Martin, LeBron or Davis? and Williams over Gaffort - I mean - LAL has the better team now!

07 Feb 2025 18:08:51
I know you're disappointed, but Dallas still has a fantastic team with great depth. They're very capable of another deep playoff run.

08 Feb 2025 12:12:52
It is not the playoffs - even if the will not win it all - only if they may add Durant, they would have a change next year.

But it is not the point. "Mavs" are gone. Luca was genious - but not perfect. Dallas has not the best marked, it is not Miami, LA or NY - it was always an underdog - like Dirk was genious but not perfect - they worked had, they fighted - succeeded. Nearly 15 years later it felt like 2008.

The heard the soul is gone. Even since it may not only Harrison - also the owners have approved it for sure - like share option deal on the market - to buy some call for the Dow Jones, since you think shortterm it may raise - a bet. Not to build a sports team, not to even a team, a city, a community of fans - sharing hopes and a vision.

And it is also the individual of Luca. He makes fun. He is not a machine, trained like a horse.

Nothing about Davis. Great player. But not a Joker, not a SGH even not Tatum - and he is no Luca - maybe he is the best PF you have in the game - but is was never magic.

I hope nobody will ki l l Harrison - because there are a lot of angry fan. Because Mavs are have died.

08 Feb 2025 21:58:43
You traded Luca for David - because of health concerns? LOL

Davis is a great play - if health. No clue why that stupid Mavs didn`t trade for him by sending Kyrie out (a week defender that is 32y old and can opt out in summer) .

LAL Kyrie, Lively, 2x1st
DAL Davies, Christie.

09 Feb 2025 16:33:29
Because the Lakers wouldn’t have moved AD for Kyrie.

11 Feb 2025 08:06:48
They had beef with Davis -. they like Kyrie and they miss a Center - Lively is a good one with the sealing to become a great one. But doesn`t matter. Magic is a Laker. : )

05 Feb 2025 15:48:59
Kyrie denies his option (if he would have played with Davis, he could have sign two years before at Lakers instead of Dallas).

Lakers sign Kyrie

LAL Durant
SUN Vanderbilt, Kleber, Reaves, Hachimura

Capela
LeBron
Durant
Luca
Kyrie

On X for Harrison: It is business baby, we thing for the next years not for longer, when we are burried.

05 Feb 2025 17:09:37
with what cap space are the Lakers signing both Kyrie and Capela?

05 Feb 2025 21:37:49
With the space, that a as. hol. like Harrison has created.

He is a good / bad example of issues all around. "Managers". He is neither an owner nor a earlier professional in sports. He is smart, thinks in terms of contracts and maybe his bonus. Without a heart or a soul - like a lot other "managers" "playing" with people and their lives - if it works he looks proud - if not, he will say proudly, I try it, but the players did not work it out. He wil has taken his money an go.

Mavs, Luca, Basketball has lost heart, soul and loyality. Mavs will be never the same - it was always a underdog organization - to see again something grow - also a great offensive player without the best defense - y remember there was another the last 20 years - but no, burry the legacy, burry the history, burry legacy to "maybe" win a title this or next year - ****, Harrison y are an ashole - and with the ofter hurt Kyrie and Davis Mavs may even not be able to win a title. It is what it is - like if you lost a member of a family to death. It is unchangeable - it hurts - but in this case, it was not needed and y could have easily build a champion team with Luca. Luca will become a Laker. If LAL trade for a big, they have already a play off team - but I am not a Laker - and I have not played Basketball anymore the last 20 years. It is time - to leave.

03 Feb 2025 08:35:21
This Mavs GM ruined Mavs. Forever. It is such an opportunistic "try" with such high "risk" - Irving, Thompson, Davis - all have health issues - never play more than 60 games - y have this and may 1 or 2 years to win "one" ring and rebuild - without a lot pics. But first of all "Mavs base" and culture is dead. That Move is so uggly, like if you would have trade Nowitzki out at 2012, because he was older and not good at defense.

Mavs was always an underdog. To see a underdog grow and win it fantastic. Now it is business. Exchangeable - Mavs and all players are exchangeable - it does not matter if you play at Mavs - you could play at any other 29 cities - no difference - no CULTER - no Mavs anymore. One of 30 teams.

Tradeprosal:

LAL: GM Harrison, 2x2nd
DAL: Cash consideration

Thks guys, best.

03 Feb 2025 09:28:09
I like this trade for Dallas
I think the A Davis-Irving combo is great, both are going to improve (Without LBJ and Doncic) and they have a well balanced team.

Dallas is smart not giving Luka a max contract. He's looking overweight and had some injuries. He could become the next Zion. That would ruin the franchise too. I hope this is a wake up call for him. He's a great player, but he needs to take better care of his body.

03 Feb 2025 12:55:30
Gasupo watch Luka kill it in LA, he can be more motivated than ever.

03 Feb 2025 14:04:25
Damn. That’s your best trade proposal I’ve seen you do.

03 Feb 2025 18:08:14
Even Cuban is confused. the culture he has build is gone.

That trade is evan childy as arrogant - to show who is in charge - to damage the Dallas Mavericks I liked a lot. No guys this chat and yours - like the Mavs - I am gone.

03 Feb 2025 20:57:57
No excuse for such a horrible trade by Dallas. 20 teams would have given more.

04 Feb 2025 01:26:31
I feel sorry for Dalcon, that trade was reckless. The only way this trade makes any sense is if Doncic has a serious injury.

02 Feb 2025 23:19:23
MAVS get Colin Sexton
GRIZZLIES get Daniel Gafford
JAZZ get 2025 1st pick (via Grizzlies), Brandon Clarke, Dante Exum

Mavs need another ball handler, give Gafford since they now have logjam at center
Grizzlies need upgrade at center
Jazz keep collecting picks. Could ask for Mavs 2025 pick, than Grizzlies pick goes to Mavs.

03 Feb 2025 01:00:34
Not sure that Gafford is a 1st better than Clarke.

03 Feb 2025 09:21:06
Gafford is bigger and stronger than Clarke, also better rim protector. Clarke will have problems containing Jokić, Davis, Sengun, Zubac, Gobert, Hartenstein, Holmgren, Wembanyama, Sabonis in the playoffs. He is too small and light for any of them. Edey cannot play heavy minutes right now, doubt he ever will. Grizzlies have a lot of dept, they are not going to miss one late first round pick.

02 Feb 2025 21:36:13
Since Bulls offer Coby White Mavs MUST go for him, having more cap space availabel.

Not sure if you should trade a generational player, also if his defense or health issues - train him not trade him.

But at least, take a little Luce in White to have another young guard that can create - when Kyrie is hurt.

BUL Exum, Powerll, 1st, 2nd
DAL Coby White

03 Feb 2025 03:30:51
Mavs don't fleece other teams, they get fleeced.

03 Feb 2025 03:35:09
Make it Hardy instead of Exum and that's a good deal.

03 Feb 2025 08:30:11
Y may asked to add Hardy - moneywise. But ok, take out the 2nd and ask Bulls to send back a second if you add Hardy - fair enough - if Bulls want him, he will get 6m next season is a great guy - if he shows flashed - but it can do it for now only every 5th game - unfortunatelly.

31 Jan 2025 13:57:58
I like that proposal!

POR Kleber, Morris, 2x2nd NOL
DAL Jones, Reath, Green, 1x2nd NOL
NOL Williams, Powell, 2x1st DAL

Reath is a good Center backup and can help till Lively is back. Green is a veteran 3&D to help till Jones is back! Jones complets the Mavs in a perfect way - especially in a point of view of play off games!

Mavs invest a lot! But keep all the team and fill all the needs - and take the risk on Jones - if he is the missing peace.

31 Jan 2025 14:47:22
I don't think Jones is available. You would have to overpay, and your traded certainly doesn't do that.

31 Jan 2025 16:42:01
No, the 2031 1st is a hugh value - the question is, if Mavs will offer it.

31 Jan 2025 23:17:48
So many teams would easily beat that offer.

01 Feb 2025 19:08:24
Of course you like that proposal. Most Homers would.

24 Jan 2025 11:59:52
Dallas should go all in, offering 2 x 1st NOL will trade Jones. Because he will become 27y this year and hence he will not fit a timeline to rebuild. He is also not a creator, what NOL needs if Ingram leaves as well. Two first are good value. Green could play till Jones is back. Theis give the Mavs a backup Center till Lively is back.

NOL Kleber, Morris, 2x1st, 2nd
DAL Jones, Theis, Green

24 Jan 2025 21:18:27
Not close for the Pelicans-have to include Lively.

19 Jan 2025 19:35:11
Jones may be fit for the playoffs so Mavs should look mid term and with Green you would had another wing backup - so best trade idea is still:

DAL Jones, Green, Theis
NOL Prosper, Kleber, Morris, 1st + 1st

19 Jan 2025 23:03:43
Except it’s not even close to a good trade offer. As usual.

20 Jan 2025 01:16:24
It's not a good idea, it's idiotic.

17 Jan 2025 20:16:54
Since Jones is hurt, Mavs could go for a step in the middle and try it in the summer:

SAN Prosper, Kleber
DAL Barnes

21 Jan 2025 11:10:27
Spurs would need some more maybe a couple of 2nd's.
