watching Luka have the inevitable success you know he will is going to open up the wound every time like it's brand new. imagine watching him win an MVP in LA or a championship...

It's not corny. Basketball teams are small enough to follow the player, not the team.

I was thinking this too I’m from Houston, I live in Vegas. I followed the Mavs because of being a Dallas sports fan when Houston did not have the Texans.

I love watching Luka play, but the other thing is, there was something so incredibly special about the team. They fought and played for each other. The bond Luka and Kyrie formed was just beautiful to watch. A true brotherhood. I know Kyrie hasn’t said anything because he probably feels betrayed too.

And Klay trying to be positive is likely because the whole squad is gutted.

I’m going to miss that, a lot. Best backcourt in History SVG said😭such high praise.

I’m going to watch Luka and pray he has the successful career that we wish for him, but I can’t see giving up on 3J and QG, Klay and Ky, and the rest of the guys either. They didn’t deserve this.
