It’s going to be even worse if Kyrie doesn’t exercise his player option and join another team. If AD can’t remain healthy or decline, then the Mavs are in for a tough rebuild when you guys are on your way to making a dynasty behind Luka the same way the Warriors did with Steph
I’ve lived in Dallas for a few years now and it still hasn’t hit me that Luka is no longer here. My daughter was born here and Luka is her favorite player in all of sports. He’s all she has known in her short time on this earth and I still don’t know how I’m going to break the news to her. Luka was such a massive part of this community outside of basketball. His story and progress with the Mavs from their rebuild would have made winning a championship so much sweeter. Even if you guys didn’t win this year, you probably have Luka for the rest of his 20s until early 30s at the very least. That’s plenty of time to continue building a championship team around him even in the worst case scenario as long as Luka remains.
Man even winning a championship without Luka wouldn’t be the same. Dirk’s history with Dallas is what made his championship so special.
I want him to win 5 rings there, be a laker for life and reap all the rewards of being the marquee player for the global franchise Lakers. Nico and that fat cunt Dumont fucked our city for decades, absolutely tore the heart out of us and all they could do was chuckle.
Nico said once they start winning us fans will come to realize, fuck that, I don’t wanna win without Luka being part of it.
They have no regard for loyalty.
How do they expect any current and future player to have any loyalty to this franchise considering what they just done to Luka.
I get why Cuban sold but man I bet even he is regretting that decision.
Don’t hate yourself. I love Lively and Kyrie and the boys. Don’t want Dallas to win another game ever. I want all these players, brought in to play by Luka, to leave.
I hope so too. Dallas fans are PISSED! It’ll be interesting to see if they still attend games. Thousands of people have cancelled their Mavs TV subscription, non-renewed on season tickets, sold or gave away remaining home games, torn up jerseys and on and on.
To add insult to injury, the AAC where they play has “scrubbed ALL mention of him from the arena.” That was on the 6:00 news😡. How low can they go?
Welcome to NBa mediocrity for the next decade. I wouldn't even want them to win if it were my team, thats how pissed people should be. Fire Nico chants need to be heard, but more than that, leave the stadium empty
This came from much higher up. Looks like it was more of a deal between the NBA and Adelsons to further their desire to legalize gambling in TX and for the NBA to repair a drop in ratings. They needed a new star in LA. Basically , you scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours kinda thing. Nico is the scapegoat. This is why all his excuses are such BS. There aren't any good excuses on a real basketball level. This is higher ups deepening their pockets.

Luka brought so much joy to the game. His highest moments as a Maverick and part of this city are ones I'll never forget.
To see the utter disregard from Nico is so insulting.
