I can’t add Reaves or multiple picks, are you crazy?? Remember, Luka is an obese scrub, I’m doing you a favor here. No other team will want him.

apparently if rob turned it down nico was thinking of going to the bucks next for giannis or twolves for ant
That is exactly what Rob said. Nico said “say less”
“Keep this between us, if other GMs know that this 25 year old 5x first team all NBA fat loser is on the trading block, they will laugh at you and you’ll become the joke of the league”
gaaaaad daaaayyyjummm!
We all know it’s an inside job and Mavs get Coop with a 1.8% chance in draft. Definitely happy with Luka on our team but Adam Silver knew how to reignite his viewership

nico hated luka with a passion so deep no-one will ever understand.
Apparently conditioning was something what especially Nico was really concerned with and together with defense issues he was focused only on this and not the positives that Luka brought to the table.
There are stories that Nico gradually fired people who Luka trusted and there were tensions and growing frustrations.
I wonder if Rob played on these cards where he also “shared” these concerns and even said, that he isn’t sure if the Lakers would take Luka.
I think that Nico was too emotional and couldn’t stand Luka as his judgment was clouded and could see only the negatives.
How could Nico have possibly known AD’s age and injury history?
Nico wearing the cuffed beanie in a quarter-assed attempt to be incognito will always be funny.
The Mavs were going to have a hard time fielding a champion with Kyrie/Luka. The theory of it was Kyrie and AD were a better fit together and OKC was vulnerable due to inexperience.
I wonder if Kyrie and AD stayed healthy if the Mavs would have made another All in move to go for the championship.
I think that was the logic, and then the 95% chance of injuries to AD and Kyrie occurred and Nico never had a chance to flex his vision
its more like “reaves can’t play defense!, you sure you want him?. i got a young kid max that can play defense”
It looks like Rob has 2 miniature people sitting on each side of him.
In Nico’s mind:
“Holy shit I got Rob to take on Kleber’s salary what an idiot.”
Not a pelinka fan but seriously the body language between the two of them. Nico is getting played.
More like “YOU WANT TO *GIFT* ME LUKA YOU MORON HAHA THATS THE WORST TRADE EVER OH MY GOD HAHAHAHAHA”
Nico gave Palinka Billion dollars at least with that transaction.
it’s such an unbelievable trade
Hang it in the Louvre
Nah, you’re joking right?
Hrmmm… Maybe I would.
Ι forgot Rob fucked around and removed Austin from the trade
He fucked Dallas and Cuban over vetoing the Chris Paul trade by giving us Luka on a silver platter. Karma.
PS : Nico is Kobe’s guy. Man knew things sucked there and shipped wonder boy out to LA.
I still believe Nico was the fall guy. He deigned a whole team around him to just trade him off? I think it was the greedy owners.
