I agree it’s a stunt to grow rating but cmon guys I don’t love Marc Cuban either but it’s widely reported this was a Nico Harrison ONLY decision. Mark ain’t even around much at all anymore
Luka just brought the Mavs to the Finals and now he’s no longer on the team. . And Luka and Kyrie are my favorite players to watch and they were both on the same team and they had chemistry. Mavs fans loved Luka . . You can’t hate the NBA enough
As a lifelong Mavs fan my heart literally hurts. Dallas loves Luka. This isn’t just about winning the championship. It’s about winning it WITH Luka. I’d rather go 5 years losing with Luka than winning this year with someone else.
@ that doesnt answer the question, the mavs wouldnt benefit from the 2 weeks worth of BAD publicity, AND helping out a conference rival, its much more likely that Dallas made a bad deal than there is some publicity element of this
I would not give someone a max contract 5 years 1/3 of a billion if that person could not control his weight. You can get away with being 270 lb when 26. Try that at 29 or 30. Look at the other “superstars” who signed a supermax or max deal recently. Jordan and Kobe played the regular season, too. They were worth it. They didn’t require the front office to check on their conditioning.
The Mavs GM is the same guy who messed up the Steph Curry shoe deal for Nike.
And Luka now gets fleeced in taxes on top of everything else
Just makes me love Luka even more
The NBA is a joke.
Yep this being a publicity stunt is what makes the most sense.

Adam silver wanted ratings, most likely reason for a trade a drunken sailor wouldn't have made

Mark Cuban didn’t make the decision you dope
yeah he's the minority owner. It's the adelsons.
The NBA has protected the Lakers for YEARS.
Whitlock and others say it's about tanking, possibly moving thevteam, and gambling.
I would probably buy it if crain and company wasnt selling it 😂😂😂😂😂
If it was a publicity stunt why would the mavs do this?
Under the table deal. Tic for tac
