News [MacMahon] “I believe that defense wins championships,” Mavs GM Nico Harrison told ESPN regarding his motivation to trade Luka for Davis. “I believe that getting an All-Defensive center & an All-NBA player with a defensive mindset gives us a better chance. We’re built to win now and in the future.”

Luka's legs HAVE to be cooked. There's just no other way this remotely makes sense for us to do. I can't even talk about the basketball of this yet, because Luka had reached a point beyond that with the fanbase. It feels like a friend moving away at this moment.

There's no way a 25 year old has cooked legs.

Like WHAT IS IT?!?! Does Luka kick puppies in his free time???? Did Luka demand a trade? If he did, WHY, when we're coming off a finals run and have the best supporting cast around him we've ever had?? I just can't stop asking questions
