This has to be more a financial decision (in what way I don't know) because it sure the hell doesn't seem like a roster improvement for the Mavs.

Fuck the Lakers too since they are coonfuckers fav team.

So I don't really care but I watched the presser with the Mavs GM and he kept talking about the "culture" fit for AD to the Mavs. I reckon...I mean he is good defensively and the other guy is not.

Warriors are continually on the lookout for someone to play in front of Moody. I'm kinda hoping they trade him. One rumor has Jimmie Butler going to the Warriors. Yawn.

Luka wanted to go to LA so he could get cameo'd in a Motley Crue or Ratt video.

That would be awesome.

de'aaron fox to the spurs. san antonio needed to add another legit scorer.

yeah he needs to get out of golden state. they pay him good money but don't give him enough playing time. weird deal.

Well GS's coach is too concerned with which crystal he needs to shove up his urethra each morning to be the best version of himself for the day.

I hope he selects a wire bristled pipe cleaning brush each of the rest of his days. Can't stand him. I too hope Moody gets traded somewhere he can get more minutes.

I'm not an NBA fan but I've never seen a fan base as pissed off as Dallas Maverick fans.

It has to be the most wtf ever trade in the NBA.

This is worse than d-hop to the Cardinals.

Someone put me onto this. It sounds like Conspiracy Thread BS to me but since I don't know anything about the situation, don't follow the NBA, for your review.

So, this is a "Major League" type of move?

[The Whyte Boar]

Speaking of conspiracy theories, I just saw one that makes sense.  LA is the most important franchise in the NBA.  The NBA is shocked and panicking over its falling ratings.  It forced this trade to bring hype to the most important franchise and interest in the league.  LA does have a habit all the way back to Wilt Chamberlain of somehow bringing in the best player in the league in seemingly lopsided trades.

As far as Vegas, there were rumors maybe 15 years ago, when the Maloof family still owned the Kings, that they were going to try to move the franchise from Sacramento to Vegas. They also owned the Palms at the time. It never materialized and they sold the franchise.

As far as Fox, I am glad he got outta there. Probably my favorite current NBA player and that place is basketball purgatory. He has kept them competitive for years but no A-list NBA players are making Sacramento their destination in free agency. San Antonio has always been a well-run franchise and if him and Wemby can entice one good 3 & D to come on down they might have something.

Back to Vegas, I think eventually the NBA gives them an expansion franchise. They should add one in Seattle too and make it an even 32-team league. Move Memphis to the Eastern Conference.

Luka bought a $15M house in Dallas last week.

If that doesn't light a fire under his ass to get in shape, nothing will. I hate the Lakers, but I hope he gets in shape and wins 4 or 5 titles for those bastards.

[Piggielicious]

Don't forget they have Bronny locked up on a favorable rookie deal so they are set up for long term success.

Ha, beat me to it!

Lol NBA 2k25 won't let you do the Luka trade to the Lakers because the Mavs aren't getting enough in return.
