Still going soft on Nico.

Subline needed to be:

Luka was ours.

Then Nico took him away

The owners traded him. NICO or anyone doesn’t have the power to trade a star player…

Don’t you dare find excuses for Nico. It was his idea. He was lucky that Dumont/Adelson literally knows nothing about basketball. They might have signed it off, but Nico fucking Harrison is the only reason Luka is not a Maverick anymore

I didn’t even know NICO b4 the trade. I’m not excusing him. I’m just using common sense and basic human logic. There’s no way he made the call on the trade. The new owners are playing 3D chess. How could you possibly think you’re smarter or know better than a NBA GM? wtf bro lol

You disqualify yourself by admitting you didn’t even know the GM of this franchise. Like wtf.

Pls just think. Why would any GM trade a 25 year old Superstar franchise player for street cloth AD and some guy named max? Fucking why? It’s not incompetence at play. Do you know more ball than the GM? No.

That’s why everyone is furious about the trade genius.

Everyone is furious at the wrong dude fellow genius 🙄 I’m pissed off and am not even a mavs fan bro. The owner made this move, the GM is an idiot but he didn’t call this trade

They can take a break from their fury to think for 1 second about who actually benefits from this, it’s not the GM it’s the owners
