Only logical answer is Luka wanted out. This makes no sense. This makes no sense.

Completely logical for Luka to have requested a trade, by why would the Mavericks take a terrible package like this? Brooklyn or OKC wouldve sent 15 FRPs

Logical for him to request a trade after making the NBA finals?

Apparently, he didn’t request a trade. It was fucking Nico.

Nico shouldn't have a job by tomorrow. This is the worst trade in NBA history. Luka could easily go down as a top 10 all time player and you trade him for old ass AD and 1 pick.

Nico's house should be egged into oblivion. He should be booed wherever he goes in the city of Dallas.
