All of those free agency misses pre-Luka though. I'd like to believe that playing a long Luka doncic it would be an attractive proposition.

As a Mavs fan, why do you think they've had such problems getting free agents? Is it the front office pitch? Is it Cuban? Do free agents not like the city of Dallas?

Every major free agent pitch they’ve ever made since Cuban took over has been COME PLAY WITH POST PRIME DIRK ON HIS LAST LEGS.

Literally every one of them.

Damn Luka hit PG with the

Pretty dope stats. The 200 pt mark is arbitrary and disqualifies a lot of dominant performances in short, four or five game series but it's still very impressive

This sounds like the pitches The Lakers gave in Kobe's later years. "Do you want to play alongside a 35-year-old Kobe while he takes 20 shots per game and doesn't talk to you?"

I get the feeling Cuban might rub some players the wrong way these days. Not based on anything, just a hunch.

KP was worth his contract last year and despite his struggles this series he's not being used correctly here for whatever reason.

I don't think he has the negative contract value most on here think. He's averaged an efficient 20 and 9 and there's players that have missed just as many games as he has the last 2 years who don't get viewed that way by fans.

He's just not a 2nd option on a championship team.

In league where a decent 3rd option makes 20 million paying Porzingis 30 isn't insane for a team who isn't up against the cap.

That’s exactly what it was.

I agree I think he’s probably got more value than what anyone here gives him credit for.

But it also feels really tough to find/predict what the trade fit might be.

 

[witnesskb24]

Good for Luka I wouldn’t take that bums jersey either

Its the city of Dallas that players don't like
Mavericks facilities are actually in the city

 

[casper90403]

Look up the stories of Dirk and Steve Nash partying nonstop when they were here together
If you're rich Dallas is probably the 4th best party city in the country
No way a disciplined fully locked in Luka doesn't finish the clippers after being up 2-0

this can pretty much be said with most major cities if you're rich.

It didnt really seem to affect Dirk or Nash though, no?

Don’t entertain him. He hasn’t a clue about anything.

 

[mr s j king]

They’re quick

Kawhi look like he was whispering to Luka "Don't do it"

 

[SneakerProSr.]

Don’t entertain him. He hasn’t a clue about anything.

If Cuban is racist then Jerry Jones is the head Klansmen in all of professional sports but dude has the Cowboys in his avy.

luka ain’t want to show the pale dad bod off in front of everybody

thats actually what I was thinking.

I once refused to go into a HS playoff game (on the road) because I forgot my shirt to go underneath my jersey. 6'0 155lbs soaking wet back in those days, and pale as can be.

Top 2 most embarrassing moments of my life.

I would understand

 

[Ja's 2¢]

Would never happen but the trade works.
Kp and Thjr for Kat and Druss.

 

[dman14]

drummond and kcp not so much

 

[tramericanjr]

The narrative that Paul George had a bad series is funny to me
