Just from a scoring standpoint, Luka has not disappointed with all the pressure on him.
I just feel bad for Coop man. It’s going to be incredibly difficult for us to fully embrace him when we already had what we’re hoping for him to turn out to be.

Luka will forever be the best player in this league until he retires, no one is touching him
Damn, I will never ever get over on this trade 😫 it really sucks as a mavericks fan, and the LA fans are just rejoicing everytime he performs like that ðŸ˜
I accept he’s no longer a Mavs but man he doesn’t look right in a Lakers uni.

I feel bad for Luka because this was his stat line for years. He missed out on so many triple doubles until he got some real help that can shoot the 3. Now he has to live with double doubles again.
Luka to Nico

Crazy the GM and Owner thought you could improve more without Luka.
Fire Nico and sell the team!
Fire Nico!!! Sell the team!!!
Watching him play is so much fun, every time he shoots you believe he’s gonna make it, not hope, Believe! I’ll never understand why Nico made that dumbass trade. I’ll forever support him.
If Dumont actually gets into basketball, I mean just ***barely*** into basketball, then he’d fire Nico ASAP after realizing how good Luka is. I guarantee you Nico gaslit him into thinking AD was comparable to Luka, similar to how a lot of y’all Nico defenders did to yourselves for the past 9 months
I can’t, I…. I don’t even know what to say to you guys, true Mavs fans… I’m from Canada so logically I’m a Raptors fan; but I’m originally from ex Yugoslavia (Croatia) and I’ve been following Luka from the day he was drafted. Dallas was my favourite team after Raptors and I just fell in love with the team, with the energy, with the appreciation the fans were showing to my boy Luka (because he deserves it).
I just cannot accept the fact this illogical trade happened. I can’t. I see him in yellow and it just doesn’t look real. It doesn’t fit. It shouldn’t be!
If I’m in total denial, me – a nobody, not a true fan at all….. I can’t even imagine the pain you guys are going through.
Fuck you, Nico!
But..even if it doesn’t look right, if the jersey is wrong… I’m so so happy to see Luka smiling and thriving again!
I hate that team and I don’t want them to win the championship, but I want it sooooo bad for Luka! It’s one hell of a rollercoaster for me, to navigate these feelings, I can’t even imagine how fucked up it must be for true Mavs fans…
Why did Adam silver attend the Dallas @ Detroit game on 1/31/25 with 2 injured rosters in a seemingly meaningless game?
My GOAT. Shoutout all the dipshits on this sub I used to argue with about blaming this guy for every loss when we had no four and Powell at the five. Hope he keeps thriving in LA
Move to Vegas and change the team name. It’s over, fellas.
I’m glad Luka is thriving though
Sigh. Honestly i think I’m only still here to
Hurt myself.
Nico needs to be arrested.
This hurts everytime he performs well. Well he does it every game. FIRE NICO!
Fire Nico. Probably investigate him for some type of gambling fraud too.
Luka was ours. It is still so painful. I will never get over it.
I genuinely regret the emotional investment I have put into this basketball team for the past 15 years. Watching Luka was one of the highlights of my dark days for years and should have been for another decade at minimum, instead we have to deal with this nightmare. Watching him ball out on the Lakers literally makes me nauseous. I thought I could take solace in knowing that I could still watch him play, but seeing him in those disgusting jerseys breaks my heart. This situation has seriously rattled my love for basketball.
It dosent help that not only does our team look like a 9-10 seed at best, but are generally a boring and unentertaining team to watch overall. Win or lose, Luka was going to put on a show. Im excited to see Coop’s development and growth but this roster is horribly built, its restricting his ability to play his actual position. Not to mention having to deal with all the pressure of a 1st pick and the noise that this franchise has going on right now. This team is just hard to watch knowing what was taken from us
Bro stop. I left DFW and moved to NYC and Knicks full supporter now. Grew up since birth supporting the mavs. Can’t do it now.
Guys, it may look bad, but remember the words of the despicable rodent: *defence wins championships*

Hah. His PPG went down after scoring 44.

Luka took a dude out of his shoe tonight….
He will average 38ppg this season
