LUKA & AD Trade Thoughts... No one is talking about this?
What is a community if we don't discuss these things??? LOL. Well I was speaking with JV this morning about this & he just made a post on it. I had to make a quick video discussing the possible behind the scenes reasons. I saw a similar situation like this happen when I was playing overseas with a star player. It was no where near the level of Luka & the NBA but human nature is all the same.
If I had to read into what was happening there was a major falling out behind the scenes between Luka & the Mavs ownership/front office & perhaps coaches. Coaches don't matter as much bc teams will easily replace them before replacing a franchise player or in this case a generational player! But I think the story not being reported is "pride" from Mavs ownership. Someone with power was rubbed the wrong way by Luka & the 'conditioning' aspect was an easy excuse. Luka & the ownership may have had a serious falling out & they didn't want to max him out at nearly 350 million next year! There's no way you can justify trading away Luka in a shady way overnight after having maybe the greatest start to an NBA career ever outside of Lebron. Remember its the Mavs that approached the Lakers about this trade in secret & they made the deal in secret. They wanted to get rid of him. He doesn't even hit his physical prime for another 2 years! Its crazy
