Like I get it we don't got luka but I am being totally honest their is no shot he stays with the lakers for anything beyond his max contract years. He still has a close connection with Dallas and Nico is gone forever although to be honest the higher ups are probably the part of the organization that soured his trust and loyalty. He will return in 3-4 years or he might just request a trade back its on the lakers FO to satisfy his competitive hunger and with a GM just as incompetent as Nico in Pelinka he might just ask out in a year or two. I get the sentiment around here but i must tell you he keeps his autonomy as a player and his rancor with the lakers incompetence is becoming palpable. Our PG1 will come home its not like we are gonna be playing a decades long game and he'll be paired with Coop sooner rather than later.

We won't ever have a repeat of the Nash and Dirk fiasco.

Keep your heads up fellow MavsFC

  1. Let’s all make collective prayer that he pulls a james harden *I’m a system* move and becomes fed up with Jeanie buss and Pelinka.

    🙏 Amen

  2. Luka is a pretty loyal guy. I doubt he leaves LA when things get rough. But I’d love to have Luka back even after his prime just to win a ring with us.

  5. I don’t think he comes back but LA is now a private equity (basically) owned club that can’t seem to figure out their cap situation and have a guard/forward heavy team where Lukas role is redundant even though he’s playing great ball. He’s in a
    Similar situation where his lack of defense and lackluster surrounding defense is making his offense less relevant.

    I could see him being traded but I think it’s more likely they trade Reaves to bring in reinforcements and rim protection.

    But Coop is excelling early and AD looks healthy. Mavs are in a good spot right now after a rough start and we have a chance to get Kyrie back for playoffs (if we make it).

    I’ve moved on and Coop has helped that. Excited for the future of this team even though it’s a few years away from being more competitive.

  6. I’m sure he’s offended that you can’t even bother to use proper capitalization of his name.

  7. I doubt he comes back unless the Lakers are awful around his next extension period and there’s no hope of them winning AND we’re on the cusp of winning with Coop. Either way though, we enjoyed what we had with Luka, it sucks the way he went out with us, but we have Coop now. Let’s enjoy what we have with Coop rn, our situation could be we don’t have Cooper at all.

  9. I’m in the camp of forever fuck Nico Harris and what he did. The camp that that trade made will be considered one of the worst trades of all time and that we got so extremely lucky we landed Flagg otherwise this fan base would still be in a deep state of loss.. and also in camp Fuck the Adelsons I wish they would GTFO of here forever..
    But.. I’m not in camp Luka coming back. Will always root for him (individually) but he’s gone and outside of my first paragraph think camp time to move on is where everyone should be at with Luka atm

  14. The way the organisation treated him, there’s zero reason for him to come back. Yes, the pathetic piece of shit Nico Harrison was fired, but the clueless morons who hired him and parroted his bullshit are still there.

  15. To be able to wear my Luka jersey again in celebration and not in grief would be a blessing 🙏
