  1. I don't hate the Lakers. I'll be watching Luka. If there's a thread I'll be there.
  2. Uh, wild if true. I'd still put my money on X.
  3. I've never heard of finley hating Luka. I'd be surprised if that's true.
  4. I'm having a hard time watching highlight clips of other games.
  5. Fin = Mike Finley? I believe it was the Adelsons directing this move. NIco's been so so good thus far. Doesn't make sense he wouldn't maximize the bid process unless he was distinctly told not to.
  6. I was sad all night Saturday after I found out. Yesterday I was sad. Today I am MAD.
  7. Taking this trade at face value w/o any implications of the Adelsons having ulterior motives - Nico not only completely misjudged Dallas fans' loyalty to Luka, he did not understand the culture that Dirk and Cuban built. 41.21.1. Loyalty never fades. MFFL. He got none of that.
  8. let me guess. they used last year's playoffs videos? he was playing on one knee. daily injections in the knee, bleeding out during the games. the game plan was for him to divert everyone to the middle where we had gafford, lively, or PJ. it worked til the finals where boston could play 5 out.
  9. I don't think so. Someone would have leaked. And cuban has no business knowing, it wouldn't affect anything.
  10. Luka's 25. He's a 5x all star, 5x first team all NBA, 5 time top 8 MVP vote getter. For comparison, kawhi didn't become an all star for the first time til he was 24. At the age of 33 kawhi STILL isn't 5x first team all nba. The first time Luka became an all star and was voted first team NBA he was 20. At 20 kawhi didn't even see the podium in rookie of the year voting. And that's only considering the talent level of the players.
  11. We don't really have a point guard on the team. Yes I know, Kyrie. But even then he's more a 2 in our system... We've tried piece mealing it with Grimes/hardy/ dinwiddie/PJ/Naji but it's been a disaster on the turnover front. We need exum back. And we need to sign Grimes to an extension.
  12. I think the roster makes sense until the final 5 minutes of the game.
  13. Kawhi's as good as Luka? That's cute
  14. How many of you would be apathetic if we make a championship run with AD and this current version of the team? How many would be all in like you are now? I'd watch, but I don't think I'd be emotionally invested.
  15. That was orders of magnitude different if only by how much better Luka is.
  16. We won't know until we get there but I suspect for me it would be hollow. I can't think I'm unique in that way. It would be a good problem to have.
  17. Well Nico you're not a fan so you wouldn't understand.
  18. I know it's been posted elsewhere but the parts that hurts the most is... “I thought I’d spend my career here and I wanted so badly to bring you a championship.”
  19. Does that signal we're not considering any other moves where we could get back under the cap?
  20. I'll never be team #FreeLuigi but here again, I understand.
  21. You know a lot but you're wrong on this one. I wish I could sleep.
  22. The team in its current form won't work. With the exception of Lively and Hardy, everyone was brought in to support Luka. PJ, Gafford, Naji, Kyrie, Klay, Grimes, Omax... So many of them have personal bonds with Luka. Gafford wanted to play for slovenia! Kyrie's wife hangs out with Luka's wife. Klay came to help Luka win a championship. How do you find the same joy and motivation to continue when the guy you thought was untouchable #1 is gone?
  23. Adelsons trying to move the team to Vegas makes the most sense. Bleed Dallas of assets, lose fans, ticket sales go down, "see mr. commissioner no one in DFW cares but we'd sell out every game in Vegas", move team, ...... profit.
