The Mavs roster is actually pretty solid right now and could make some noise (despite being inferior to what it was two days ago), but the implications for the FUTURE of the Mavericks is absolutely unjustifiable. Trading a superstar player and getting back a more injury prone, older star and ONE first rounder that this very trade makes less valuable??? The ramifications of this trade on the long term viability of the Mavs is creating problems and gaps in value where problems didn't exist.
The Mavs front office has been shooting themselves in the foot for the past year or so and this was them putting the gun to their head. This team is cooked

If Bron had anything to with this trade, going forward I will shat on him as well whenever I get a chance to do so.
We’ve seen bron trade players when they ran out of their juice before and the nail in the coffin was drafting his son … this was an inside job by not only him, but Klutch (shams represented by them, lot of the media too) and Adam silver as well .. silver is so out of touch w the fans, wants to do 10 min quarters to get more sponsors and thinks LeBron is the main attraction of the nba so does all he can to help him win .. its a disgrace and a shame .. mavs had prolly the best vibes of any team and thrown away just like that, feel bad for Kyrie too, Kyrie and Luka got it the worst .. lebron has ruined this league .. silver needs to go .. only thing that would make them listen is to plummet the ratings even more but that’s gonna be tough now as the most popular team has an international star .. it’s sad
It got ridiculous when Bronny got drafted and Lebron seemingly just got even more steroids added to his stack 😂 The NBA doesn’t deserve to be watched how. Silver has perverted the game of basketball and this should be the final straw
At some point it does just become a problem. What do you trade for a 25 year old mvp level player that hasn't caused issues off the court, that also just took you to the finals? There's almost nothing to realistically trade that for to even get value without just swapping for SGA or something dumb.
@@jnmc2498 they are trying but this will fail miserably It's the complete wrong move. More nepotism and star stacking on the way Less confidence in franchises and less and less reasons to be a lifetime fan when teams do these kinds of trades on the middle of the night
Yea this is definitely a rig job. This trade makes no sense no matter how you look at it. They wanna help LeBron because they think that will get them ratings. Little do they know LeBron is the reason no one watches anymore. I’m a Cavs fan and Lebron has destroyed this league. I don’t watch a game anymore. And the Cavs are decent.
Two words, “luxury tax.” My city’s team lost their future because the billionaire owners didn’t want to pay him. They won’t get any more of my money, that’s for sure. I used to buy tickets, merch, and never missed a game if I could help it. I’m a Spurs fan now, I don’t give a fuck

There is no other explanation. A drunken toddler wouldn't have made this trade. 20 other teams could have made better offers. Not to mention they should have gotten more from the Lakers
@@stephengoodell5984yeah, if they wanted to really trade luka they would have announced it publicly so there would’ve been a bidding war to ensure they got the most value in return for Luka. what a joke
As a die-hard AD fan…yeah, I’m completely speechless, how did everyone agreed to this trade? I mean in my opinion both that’s lost in this trade. The Lakers lost their one and only defensive source and a young man with decent scoring ability for a potential defensive crash out? And the Mavs gave away their cornerstone for an even bigger injury prone. All I can say is, there are something more to it.
Luka literally got better every year he hasn’t even peaked yet. Like his first trip to the playoffs after getting knocked out in round 1, next time knocked out in round 2, then eventually made the finals. You can definitely build around him
This is not just the craziest deal it was also the biggest steal in NBA history. Aging and injury prone AD and ONLY one first round pick 4 years from now. Crazyyy
@Chuck.Mast3r IDK why Dallas didn't call Milwaukee and make an offer. I believe Giannis is going to ask out this offseason anyways if we flame out in the playoffs again.
As an OKC fan how did we let this slide? We could have got him easily for that price. We might have even got to keep J Dub, Chet and SGA. If AD and a first gets you Luka then I Hart, Dort, Topic, Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe and as many firsts as you want should get that done.
@ Exactly. Imagine also having Chet and J Dub? 😵I remember arguing with a Mavs fan like a year ago that if OKC wanted Luka we could get him and I said hypothetically we could just throw 5 young pieces and 10 first rounders if we wanted because we have so many assets and his response was "that still wouldn't be enough to get it done" 😅
I've been a Mavericks fan for nearly 30 years. This would be like trading Durk in 2006 for Ben Wallace. I'm done. I'm officially an NBA fan free agent. I won't be cheering for a franchise that does a player dirty like the Mavericks did Luka
Lakers needed a Center, and nope they made it worse by trading AD away. They don't have any defense up front and below the rim. MAybe they will make a trade or something for Myles Turner. Mavs get AD which will definitely boost their defense, but Gafford and Lively is already there, and AD is 31 years old. What on earth is the Mavs GM thinking...
They just went from a team that nobody hated, known for cool ownership and GM, a great finals title, and players like Dirk, and recent good times like the Luka and Kyrie duo.... Now they seem scuzzy.
I pride myself on knowing exactly what to say about trades exactly when they happen. I was just in shock for a while on this one before making the video
2:10 Why would Luka stay in LA, though? If they can't pay him the supermax he will simply go to the team with the highest chance of a title. International players don't care as much about being in LA.

Same Here, what are we gonna do? Can we be fans of a team which doesnt appreciate our Luka magic? I dont think so, might become a lakers fan this exact moment 😊
Unless Mavs have found out that Luka will retire or die next year, this do not make any sense. Gafford is fucked, Lively fucked, Kyrie is fucked, AD is fucked, PG is fucked, Mavs fans are fucked me included.
Correction: Not a Mavs fan anymore. I don't need this kind of shit to push me further down, life is trying to do enough already.
If Bron had anything to with this trade, going forward I will shat on him as well whenever I get a chance to do so.
I don’t think LeBron has weight to make an entire franchise trade their star…
We’ve seen bron trade players when they ran out of their juice before and the nail in the coffin was drafting his son … this was an inside job by not only him, but Klutch (shams represented by them, lot of the media too) and Adam silver as well .. silver is so out of touch w the fans, wants to do 10 min quarters to get more sponsors and thinks LeBron is the main attraction of the nba so does all he can to help him win .. its a disgrace and a shame .. mavs had prolly the best vibes of any team and thrown away just like that, feel bad for Kyrie too, Kyrie and Luka got it the worst .. lebron has ruined this league .. silver needs to go .. only thing that would make them listen is to plummet the ratings even more but that’s gonna be tough now as the most popular team has an international star .. it’s sad
WWE NBA on same level since Covid
It got ridiculous when Bronny got drafted and Lebron seemingly just got even more steroids added to his stack 😂 The NBA doesn’t deserve to be watched how. Silver has perverted the game of basketball and this should be the final straw
And remember what happened during covid? NBA trying to get Lebron another ring before he retires to continue to push his narrative.
Trading Luka isn't the problem. Trading for so little is.
At some point it does just become a problem. What do you trade for a 25 year old mvp level player that hasn't caused issues off the court, that also just took you to the finals? There's almost nothing to realistically trade that for to even get value without just swapping for SGA or something dumb.
Right it doesn't make sense how little Lakers gave.
That can come out only from someone outside. Definitely not from a Mavs fan.
This is the rare trade that actually makes a franchise (The Lakers) a billion dollars more valuable. For AD and a 1st. Ludicrous.
It can’t be injuries as AD is injury prone too.
This has to be to improve NBA ratings, and has to be investigated!
Improove NBA ratings??? I am done with the NBA now
@@jnmc2498 they are trying but this will fail miserably
It's the complete wrong move. More nepotism and star stacking on the way
Less confidence in franchises and less and less reasons to be a lifetime fan when teams do these kinds of trades on the middle of the night
Yea this is definitely a rig job. This trade makes no sense no matter how you look at it. They wanna help LeBron because they think that will get them ratings.
Little do they know LeBron is the reason no one watches anymore. I’m a Cavs fan and Lebron has destroyed this league. I don’t watch a game anymore. And the Cavs are decent.
I think it started with the KD Warriors I mean LeBron's 3-1 comeback had the highest rated Game 7 in NBA History @@330wiz7
🐐
Between Lebron & Luka, the crying about calls is gonna be next level and probably make the Lakers unbearable to watch
Been unbearable for years. Didnt they make like 3x or 4x as many free throws as other teams
Probably one foul LeBron and Luka gonna cry harder with hugging and kissing on forehead each other
Two words, “luxury tax.” My city’s team lost their future because the billionaire owners didn’t want to pay him.
They won’t get any more of my money, that’s for sure. I used to buy tickets, merch, and never missed a game if I could help it. I’m a Spurs fan now, I don’t give a fuck
Welcome to Spurs Nation ! We got the future GOAT defensive player with limitless potential on offense ! Every day is a beautiful day 😁
Bro the NBA is going to manoeuvre a Mavs vs Lakers playoffs match up FOR SURE after this
LAKERS not making the play.offs...2 games vs OKC 3 vs Denver several vs BOSTON CLE MEMPH HOUST GSW....
LUKA will miss a month
If kyrie,klay and AD(not injured) all prime it would make some sense…. The problem is that all of them are not in their prime because this some kind of win now trade AD is already 31
Thats why Mark Cuban sold the team ownership
ANYONE IN 2099 ?!?💖✨
Yeah me, it was still a dumb trade 😂
The Mavs end up winning the chip but still regret the trade
Lmao that pic
Bro what the hell is going on? That’s got to be the worst trade ever
As a Lakers fan 1st and Luka fan 2nd I’m just thrilled it happened
Let’s Go!!!!!
Now let's trade the old guy. Than I'M thrilled, too. 😀
@ been waiting years for that too
Two oldhead bandwagons hating on 2 guys who brought LA a chip, stick to the yankees
@@walz4635 the LeBron era in LA has been a disaster except for like a season and a half of what 6 or 7 seasons
It’s been time to move on
Bron isn’t a future for the Lakers
His time is done
So move on
@@jayramirez9445”he came ,he complained,he left” legacy 😂
Hypothetically, the Mavs and the Lakers exchanged Top 10 players...but in reality the Mavs gave the Lakers a Top 10 player in the league while the Lakers gave the Mavs a Top 10 consistently unavailable player in the league and 1 SINGLE FIRST when guys like Gobert, PG, Durant at 35, MIKAL BRIDGES etc went for 5+ firsts
Top 10 cmon you are forgetting the numbers luka did last year..
Where are Luka’s touches and minutes going to come from with Bronny there already?
This move reminds me the Chicago Bulls Jerry Krause move back in 1998, the bulls have never recovered since that
2025 just started, this feels like a fever dream bru
Never forget : five more years with -15 with the ratings and the League is dead ! And the big financial crisis is not here, yet. It's just "Opeation save the League".
There is no other explanation. A drunken toddler wouldn't have made this trade. 20 other teams could have made better offers. Not to mention they should have gotten more from the Lakers
Get ready for Anthony Edwards in Dallas, or Miami...
@@stephengoodell5984yeah, if they wanted to really trade luka they would have announced it publicly so there would’ve been a bidding war to ensure they got the most value in return for Luka. what a joke
@@chummchumm I hope ratings go down even more with them possibly tampering. Imagine how all the dallas fans feel
Blessings from Taiwan 🇹🇼
So true....😂
So happy they choose the Lakers to get Luka 🏆
Jesus loves everyone 😇🥰
Something seems fishy about this trade for sure...top 3 player that just went to the finals for an aging always injured AD and a first...
Nico Harrison is a secret Lakers fan that infiltrated the Mavs front office for this
Mavs could have receive so much for Luka.. 4 first round pick and 1/2 very good rôle players.. this is insane.
they got 2 top 3 picks and 1 first pick under the table deal preferably on stacked upcoming
years
Nico Harrison been drinkin that Jerry Jones cool aid!
I was really thinking Tucker was already in bed and we weren't getting the video until morning. Craziest trade I've ever seen.
I woke up at like 2 AM ET. Just took me a while to get my thoughts together for obvious reasons haha
@@SportingLogicallygreat work. Tucker deserves to be tucked back into bed
I’m a hockey fan, never even seen a game of basketball, and even I’m stunned
As a die-hard AD fan…yeah, I’m completely speechless, how did everyone agreed to this trade? I mean in my opinion both that’s lost in this trade. The Lakers lost their one and only defensive source and a young man with decent scoring ability for a potential defensive crash out? And the Mavs gave away their cornerstone for an even bigger injury prone. All I can say is, there are something more to it.
This needs to get vetod
Well, this should increase Nba ratings
Luka literally got better every year he hasn’t even peaked yet. Like his first trip to the playoffs after getting knocked out in round 1, next time knocked out in round 2, then eventually made the finals. You can definitely build around him
This is not just the craziest deal it was also the biggest steal in NBA history. Aging and injury prone AD and ONLY one first round pick 4 years from now. Crazyyy
We got Luka let's goooooooo 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Lakers could trade Luka tomorrow for genuinely like 10 first round picks. There's literally zero downside!
Now, I'm convinced that the NBA had a say on this trade.
The mavs just signed their death warrant
Let's wait and see. AD without Lebron "-80 BPM" James... might be interesting.
He IS in his prime, after all.
Can someone break Luigi out of his cell, we got a name for the Mavs GM
The Dallas Mavericks just got older and more injury prone.
This makes no sense for Dallas they could have got Ginnis instead of Anthony Davis.
I'd take a Giannis over AD any day. Instead the Mavs got robbed... that's not to say AD is bad but the guy is injury prone.
@Chuck.Mast3r IDK why Dallas didn't call Milwaukee and make an offer. I believe Giannis is going to ask out this offseason anyways if we flame out in the playoffs again.
Mavs: we have a whiteboy
Lakers Management: Licking their lips salivating 😂😂
As an OKC fan how did we let this slide? We could have got him easily for that price. We might have even got to keep J Dub, Chet and SGA. If AD and a first gets you Luka then I Hart, Dort, Topic, Cason Wallace, Isaiah Joe and as many firsts as you want should get that done.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
SGA as a shooting guard with Luka passing to him would break the NBA.
There's no way anybody other than the Lakers knew he could even be traded for lol
the mavs want to win now guess they think the league is weak
@ Exactly. Imagine also having Chet and J Dub? 😵I remember arguing with a Mavs fan like a year ago that if OKC wanted Luka we could get him and I said hypothetically we could just throw 5 young pieces and 10 first rounders if we wanted because we have so many assets and his response was "that still wouldn't be enough to get it done" 😅
I've been a Mavericks fan for nearly 30 years. This would be like trading Durk in 2006 for Ben Wallace. I'm done. I'm officially an NBA fan free agent. I won't be cheering for a franchise that does a player dirty like the Mavericks did Luka
Durk?
@@douglasmurdoch7247 Derk.
same, just officially turn myself a mavs and nico harrison hater
bruh AD is 10x the player ben wallace is at minimum top 6 in the league
AD is WAAAAAAAY better than ben wallace.. cmon now
This makes no sense. If the mavs floated this out to all other 28 teams I bet they would have got at least 20 better options than this.
28 better offers
How about Embiid for Luka straight up? Much better for the Mavs and Philly would have done that in a second.
Imagine what mikal bridges went for compared to Luka 😭
Wtf was dallas thinking
Luka was in the MVP talk last year and we went to the finals. WTF!
Corruption!
Yeah Maybe it's selenskjy's fault.... 🤣🤣🤣 That sob
It’s just insane that the mavericks just were in the finals and decide to trade a top 5 player in the league.
This is definitely not a win now situation for the Lakers. Because there is no way they're getting past OKC or Denver this year.
One thing is for sure is that Lakers secured their future.
They weren't getting past them either way.
Lakers needed a Center, and nope they made it worse by trading AD away. They don't have any defense up front and below the rim. MAybe they will make a trade or something for Myles Turner.
Mavs get AD which will definitely boost their defense, but Gafford and Lively is already there, and AD is 31 years old. What on earth is the Mavs GM thinking...
This trade is more about the future rather than today
Exactly, this smells like a LeBron trade in my opinion.
@@danialhashmi6078luka is always injured and plays no defense
Short term setback for Long Term gain. Someone was eventually going to have to replace LeBron as the leader and AD wasn’t that guy imo as a Lakers fan
@@Lev782 but wasn't that supposed be Austin Reaves
he was drafted by Atlanta but traded to Dallas on draft night
Luka just went from face to heel over night
bro someone turned on trade overide wtf
That someone is probably named ADAMoviç SILVERomovïč
They just went from a team that nobody hated, known for cool ownership and GM, a great finals title, and players like Dirk, and recent good times like the Luka and Kyrie duo.... Now they seem scuzzy.
Not even clickbait I am speechles like fish underwater
I think if AD can stay healthy, the Mavs could end up on top of this trade.
This is the kinda thing that should bring down the NBA.
If the Mavs dont win a title in the next 2 years, this will be one of the worst trades ever
wtf are the mavs doing!? 🤦🏻♂️🤣
They will talk more about this trade than the 89 trade that brought Dallas cowboys their championships
Does this mean Atlanta won the luka-trae trade?
No, Trae Young will never be a positive and has achieved nothing.
Dallas didnt want to pay Luka 70 million a year.. hes always out of shape and doesn't play defense
does not play defense... it is like you say Picasso does not know how to make nuclear bomb
I stood in Talley in shock for 30 minutes
I pride myself on knowing exactly what to say about trades exactly when they happen. I was just in shock for a while on this one before making the video
You know it's bad when even Timberwolves fans are here commenting "wtf" at 5am.
This is going to go down as one of the very worst trades of all time
Both lakers and mavs are not winning a championship for the next 15 years at least, you heard it here first.
2:10 Why would Luka stay in LA, though? If they can't pay him the supermax he will simply go to the team with the highest chance of a title.
International players don't care as much about being in LA.
