AD: We need a 5.
Rob: You’ve got a 5 o’clock flight to Dallas.
😂😂😂😂😂
Not even funny!
😂😂😂😂
💀

Has to be the craziest trades in NBA history. Not a soul believed it lmfao
It doesn't surprise me. I already knew AD was wasn't gonna be there after this year. Anyway, the only thing that I was surprised about was Luca going to the lakers, but I knew that the Dallas Mavericks. Didn't want to keep him either from the stuff that was going on this year.
It's no suprise at all I can believe it
Not a soul
Bruh this is insane 🤯
The results next two seasons will tell us.
2k wouldn't even let you make this trade lmao 😂
Hahahha that's a good one 😂
hahahahaha
Underrated comment 🤣
2k at this point still want you to offer Russell Westbrook a max contract in free agency so………..
😂
Mavs really fumbled Porzingis, Brunson, and Doncic in a span of three years😂
Porzingis sucks lmao and nobody knew Brunson was gonna be that nice
@@louisg9292porz does not suck lmao
@@louisg9292 Brunson was one of the best players in the playoffs for the Mavs...
@louisg9292 nobody knew about Brunson??
You must be joking. Everyone knew, except you it seems.
Luka Knees are almost done he has about 4 good seasons at most
Dallas worried about Luka's ability to stay healthy so they traded for AD 😂
Would be insane if AD gets a season ending injury💀💀💀
On some real ish AD hasn’t been that injury prone the past couple years it’s been small stuff. If you look around the league he’s played more game than a lot of other superstars
😭😭😭
Right
AD availability was pretty good past and this season. I am not sure if you compare Luka and AD, Luka is a clear winner regarding availability.
Btw, fun fact, since AD arrival to LA, on average per season AD played more games then lebum.
AD: "I Want a big"
Rob: "Well everything's bigger in Texas"
😂😂
😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
LMAO
For the win!!!! Bahahaha

The most shocking part is there was no rumors or whispers of this possibly happening. I'm impressed both teams kept it under wraps for however long
It’s bc Mark likes to talk directly unlike most other owners that speak through the gm or some middle man
Just goes to show that these "insiders" really don't know anything. Their guess is as good as ours.

After this trade, I am really worried about my 3 year old daughter telling me she doesn't love me because I've got no money.

Yeah I thought it was click bait when I first saw it😯
I can’t believe Dallas traded a 25 year-old mega star for 31-year-old Anthony Davis. I’m still in shock.
Has the city of Dallas start any riots outside yet 😂? Good lord!
Dallas fans will feel much different in June when Kyrie and AD are holding the trophy with Kidd.

There has to be something that we don’t know. Behind the scenes Luka is lacking somewhere in a major way.

Imagine lakers puttin Lebron James on the trade sheet and it was Bronny and the team gets FKD HAHAHAHA
If this is a bot page it’s still funny
This move is for the Lakers future. Once LeGM retires, Lakers will over $45M in cap space to build around Luka. Lakers future is set.

Perk got a lot of nerve talking about a player being out of shape 😂
For real. He was out of shape his whole career…
Perk wasn't in bad shape as a player. Nowadays it's flipped lol
I was thinking of that too. Well carry on look in the mirror.
What does Perk being out of shape have to do with Luka being out of shape? This new generation acts like media isnt supposed to put out facts or have opinions on players because they also have the same problems/issues. I'm sure Perk would say he is out of shape. So what does that have to do with Luka being out of shape? His own team said it
Takes one to know one so I believe him 😂😂
This trade is very weird, if Dallas wants to trade Luka, they would be open to whole market to listen to what every team has to offer instead of the LAKERS, Luka is great no other superstar can match him trade value 1v1 unless guys like Giannis,Jokic level
It's weird because it's a league move..the NBA have their hands written all over this trade
Getting home at 2am on the east coast and hearing Luka was traded to the Lakers is the craziest news I've heard in a long time!
Bro i was out clubbing and saw a post on instagram and my whole mind was in disbelief but i understand it because luka is limited and immature in my view.
Yep
The Lakers can't get it right! Luka Doncic and LBJ do not mesh. Neither one plays defense. Both are on ball players, and neither can post--up!😮
I was sleep lol woke up looked at the thumbnail and thought it was fake then I googled it…
Man what I was about to black out in a saloon playing pool when I got the notification
Literally started yelling in the middle of the bar. Not even a Mavs fan but live in DFW. ABSOLUTELY INSANE
Shouldn’t affect you then. Dak getting traded soon 😂
Bet on Mavs winning the title. You are a lucky man
@marvincotton1919 you are high, they ain't beating the cavs, thunder or Boston
Luka and LeBron play ZERO defense
Bro me too my girl looking at me in disgust
This is one of those trades where, as the mavericks, you don't even listen to the offer for doncic from the Lakers, but THEY approached the Lakers about it that's freaking insane man.
Still can’t believe it. Thought it was fake at first. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out

"They are worried about his ability to focus in biggest moments" ??? He been hitting game winning shots since his rookie year like constantly.
They are right.
I agree w/you but it’s not just about big shots. It’s also about getting key stops on defense in those same crucial moments.
I still don’t understand this trade tho. Don’t get me wrong. This is nuts. 😂
Kinda fat, kinda lazy kinda selfish.
But also an all star but what happened in the Finals? If he was really like that i think that shoulda gone down differently-if you’re a superstar and your opposition is Tatum and Brown you gotta overcome that if you’re a historic player.

Luca has always step up in the big moments. Luca took the Mavericks to the NBA finals just months ago.
And disappeared right out of the playoffs.
“Lebron has dreamed of playing with Luka for years.” Dude, is there any superstar LeBron doesn’t dream of playing with 😂?
They all dream of playing with other stars.

No words for this, this will break Dallas franchise for decades
The thing that puzzles me is that I feel they should have gotten a king's ransom for Luka. With Luka on the roster, they weren't winning a championship because there were several teams favored ahead of them in the West, and that wasn't going to change, but I'd think they'd be able to get a few stars in their primes and lottery picks for him.
They got better

@@LegitSosalike Charles Barkley said, “he’s healthy all of a sudden.” 😂
Everyone was focused on Jimmy and Fox, and THIS sneaks by 😂
Luka finds US basketball boring, and being traded in this manner will humble him; it was a blessing in disguise. Additionally, I believe LeBron was aware and involved, but he was provided with the highest level of plausible deniability.
Mark Cuban had promised Luka a ring as a wedding gift 💀 & AD was told that team was going to be built around him. Both the Dallas & Lakers front office have done their players dirty.
Mark Cuban isn't an owner of the Mavs anymore.
Mark Cuban sold the majority of ownership to someone else he had no control over the team no more
Until he faked an abdominal injury to try to force the Lakers to get a big. Pat Riley needs to take notes from Rob Pelinka!

It's funny how the Lakers always end up with these deals and no one else. They get Shaq, Kobe, LeBron, now they get doncic. The NBA wanted this deal to happen. Can't let the biggest market team fail.
I wholeheartedly agree
Stop it 😂😂😂😂 it’s very rare they end up with these deals. You calling out deals that are a very long time ago stop crying.
Don’t forget Kareem and Wilt

You guys do realize the number one person who is most responsible for his team for W‘s is LeBron James right? He can win without weight he can win Bosch he can win without Irving. He can win without love he can win without Davis. He has shown you over and over and over again. He is the main part of an offense to get a W now you have the best player next to LeBron James at this moment is better than LeBron James at that same exact display. You guys are watching a completely different game than I am. You will see this now watch how good this offense is gonna be in LA.
Luka led them to the NBA finals last year. The idea that the Mavs were wondering whether they could win with him is nonsense. This is the most baffling trade in North American sports history. I don't want to say it but it makes me think that there was some other forces behind the scenes at play here.

@@quizturner44LOL you haven't watched many Mavs games then. He's been extremely clutch since his rookie season. He really hasn't missed that much time from injuries either. It's clear now he hasn't been playing bc this deal was in the works, not because of an injury

ua-cam.com/users/shortsdKavO1TEvQM?si=M6oVBOIN52Y1zPcS
Word that’s what I thought. They must’ve been a fight or something.
There was that video last year of Luka, a grown man, enjoying a beer after a big win and one the management people from the Mavs taking it from him and Luka looking like, "Really?" Maybe that's just some of the things that have happened to him and he's like, I'm done.
"One of the management people" = Michael Finley
If you wanted to say Eff you to Luka you would send him to Washington not LA
Absolutely. This qualifies the Lakers to go to the playoffs this year, and maybe even win another championship. If everything falls into place. Because the golden state warriors. Are in total disarray right now. About what they want to do going forward. So. Where there's confusion, there's opportunity. And this is the perfect time. To capitalize on it. Peace.
The biggest head scratcher. Dallas just gave up a mega star for the next 10 years to make a push this season. While LA just hit the eject button on this season unless they get a big.

@@benwagner8993 Kleber isn't replacing half of what AD gave them on either end. I'm guessing that Reaves is next because he just became redundant behind Luka and LeBron.

This is the only other LeBron James type player ever to play in the NBA and now they just so happen to be on the same team I don’t know what kind of coverage you guys are looking to do…… this is the most amazing thing in the history of sports. How far will this extend LeBron James‘s career? Will he be the first to play 30 seasons ? In 50 years do you think the best of the best will play 30 seasons knowing the blueprint the greats before him laid down ?

Biggest comment on here (pause
Now the Lakers will bro bro
They can lol. Luka is not signing an extension.
Who would Denver have traded for Luka, ? Jamal Murray is not on Anthony Davis level and they already got kyrie
@@maki1517all superstars resign in La what bud how old are u
Mavs traded a unicorn for a unibrow.
Underrated comment 😂
unicow & unibron
They’ll win nothing I’m telling you karma is a HOE 😂
😅😅 funny
😩🤣🤣
Let’s get one thing straight: Luka might be the best player in the world *right now* . Despite all the talk about his *conditioning* , he just dragged a very MEDIOCRE Dallas team to the Finals by absolutely dismantling the Timberwolves - something *no one* saw coming. He’s HEAD AND SHOULDERS above everyone else in his age group and beyond.
All this chatter about "conditioning" and "availability" suddenly doesn’t make sense, at all, when they trade him for AD. AD, who might never stay healthy for four straight games again... The guy is *made of glass* , has almost ZERO drive, and needed LeBron to push him - there’s no LeBron in Dallas to keep him in check. This feels like being *so close* to win it all, and then throwing it all away.
Sure, the Mavs might *look* good on paper, but the NBA is a *superstar-driven* league, where the biggest star *owns* the locker room. On top of that, Kyrie and Klay *specifically* came to Dallas to play with Luka, not AD. Kyrie might not even LIKE, AD.
This has all the makings of an *epic* implosion for the Mavs, and let’s be real... *malice* shouldn’t be ruled out.
Everyone seems to be forgetting a Kyrie and AD duo going crazy. Looking forward to watching both teams even more now.
AD is a Top 5 talent with a mid level mentality.
Exactly! Klay outside shooting 3s. This is a championship team
Imagine if they land Butler. Omfg. Bro I'm a suns fan. I'm hoping we can get a deal done with Beal for butler. But idk. Wit AD n Kyrie. And no state taxes. Mavs may be looking real attractive to Jimmy buckets
@@dukeimus no its not they were a championship team with luka lol did yall forget they were in the finals last year? yeah its cool but they got worse this year and in the future
Yeah 7 years ago
Im a LeBron fan for decades and the crazier thing is that a AD and Luka duo makes more sense for the lakers to win..
uve lost ur mf mind 😂 get off jordans 🥜 little man
yeah, but I doubt the Mavs would have wanted to deal with all the drama Lebron brings for the next possibly 2 years until he finally retires.
The only chance that's true is if they get some good trades because they don't have a center or enough defense.
100%
@@MrSheduur”All the drama” yeah the guy who’s never been in trouble for anything averaging 25/9/8 at 40 years old. Such drama.
When I first say the bleacher report tweet I thought it was one of those fake accounts😂
So Luka is basically James Harden. Did the Rockets win a Championship with Prime Harden? And so Dallas didnt believe they could win a Championship with that style. But Luka will keep the stands filled and rack up on the individual awards..Just like Harden
Luka: "why is bronny here?"
Lebron: "bring back ad"
Lebron also dreamed of playing with AD. this is a crazy move. Unnecessary for either team.
When I 1st saw this post online, I thought it was fake. Then I went o the ESPN network, and I was blown away. Why would the Lakers agree to let AD go?
Chemistry gonna be wacked. We need ad as rim protector
"They didn't even get the entire package" is crazy..
I can't believe Mavericks traded Luka, but I assume they didn't want to resign him for the super max contract they would have needed to pay to keep him.
Kyrie, Klay, AD, PJ, Lively, Gafford is actually a really nicely built team. They could make some noise the next couple years
Really?
What are you talking about, 4 out of 5 players are past their prime and 2 are so old are about to be ex-players in a couple of years, you a tripping, tell me what u and Nico are taking
Hmm Kyrie, Klay and AD are literally all in there 30s and will be declining before we know it. They are definitely in win now mode, otherwise they ain't doing nothing for years to come. Especially since they traded there franchise player.
Ad can’t stay healthy
Their window for a ship is almost non existent now.
Dallas: we want AD
Lakers: 😂😂😂
Dallas: for Luka
Lakers: wait what seriously...... 🎉🎉
Perhaps this is what Doncic needed, an incentive to play and train harder than ever before
the year after making the Finals? hahahahahaha
Im a die-hard Laker fan and just never been a fan of Lebron. It's too long to explain. We won that year of COVID, but it didn't feel the same as when Kobe and Magic won. I don't know why the organization brought him along. It's no different like if Jordan would have joined the Lakers. And trust me that's no debate.
AD: We need a 5.
Lakers: You got 5 mins to leave the building.
🤣🤣🤣
@@cedricjohnson8530 AD U GOT 5 DECADES WITHOUT RING NOW CAUSE U LOST ALL DRAFT PICKS FOR ME IN PELICANS
Best one😂😂😂
What tf are the Mavs doing?? Luka for AD?? Like… WHAT!!??
@@_Chanandler_Bong should have gotten Fox and like 5 firsts at least
Stupid Dallas
Like… HOLD THIS L GOOFY
Mavs better D, Luka and Bron too ball hugggers, where's the Lakers going to now
@@Smoke.Official I’m goofy?
AD: I hate playing at the 5.
Rob: No Problem, you'll love the Texas 2-step!
NBA ratings are down , Lakers underperform for a while now , LBJ is on the way out . How to make league interesting again ? Force an unrealistic trade to make Lakers exciting again
