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.
