Kylie’s future? Is that a joke?
It’s in Phoenix or LA. Hopefully
In Phoenix with the likely return of Ayton.
The Mavs changed their strategy when it became clear that Memphis was going to rest their players against OKC in the last game of the season. In hindsight, the Mavs made the right move because even if they won both of the remaining games they still would not have made the play in and would be in worse position for the draft. I'm surprised the guys running this show don't understand this. Also surprised Macmahon doesn't explain it to them
McMahon low-key be stirring drama. On another note, I would trade Luka while the world thinks he's the 2nd coming. If Twolves give me Edwards and Kat. I would jump on it
Mark Cuban needs to get a real GM and stay the heck out of the way. He has screwed things up consistently for the last 12 years or so after he ridiculously blew up his championship team.
The problem with team building is superstars don’t want to deal with drafting and developing players…but you want that player that was developed by another organization
can't have wood showing up Dwight Cuban
It’s so easy to identify an ESPN writer….narrative seeking…his verbiage….his pot stirring…his arrogance of insight.
Apparently the teams that are best at purposefully losing deserve the best draft picks. Great league.
Cuban and Luka both played McMahon. Media especially ESPN create these narratives to create drama. When McMahon looked like a mumbling idiot, when Luka told him he was happy made my day. To me international stars in the NBA don't usually request trades, but McMahon will assume whatever to create drama. Wood is good at scoring that is it. Watch the entire season and read the other players body language you'll see what is wrong with him. End of the season he stepped up, but youre talking about a guy rockets basically gave up for free and no other team wanted at the deadline.
What the hell are these casuals talking about "FANS" don't like Luka??? What fans???
The casual “fans” that host this show aren’t even aware of what they are talking about when it comes to talking about the mavs.
How does Tim McMahon knows Luka won't be loyal??? How does he know Luka??? He's dumb.
Bad reporter. If he wants to write on SPECULATION then become a blogger. If you’re a reporter, you report FACTS.
Plan was like this… Mavs beat Kings and wait Utah… when Utah tanked and leave win to OKC thig was clear t Mavs and they knew Memphis will did same in last round so they shift to tank themself also.. as they only need to lose to Chichago. If Utah was playing with all available players they would beat OKC and then Mavs would win last to and go to playin.. Maybe league should investigate Utah so intentionaly losing to OKC??? Or league officials just hate Mavs for some reason! Time to make some changes in top of the league they are there too long!
You guys are over thinking this. Losing to the Bulls made sense! They were not going to make the play line. All of this was done for draft position. Luka isn’t going anywhere! Kyrie may go, but I don’t see him in a better position going to the Lakers. Lebron is still playing at a high level individually, but he can’t get it done like he did in the past as far as making players around him better. Kyrie would be better staying and use the draft and free agency to get better defensively, have a full offseason with the team and make a run for it next year!
Cuban did not expect mavs to beat the kings, just easy as that, This is the reason they didnt start tanking vs the kings. Mark cuban was waiting mavs to take the L and then say "now we can only tank"
😂😂😂😂Ha,ha,ha,ha …. Why are these pathetic idiotic clowns lying that the fans don't like Luka? Are they making the stuff up, because they are xenophobic and nationalistic, and are therefore hating the fact that a foreign guy is the face of their franchise? Must be really tuff for them to have to put up with the fact that some foreign and non-american guy is making all of them and their own incompetent franchise RELEVANT (at least for the last 5 years). Poor guys. I really feel for them. Must be really humiliating and defeating for them. Ha,ha,ha,ha 😂😂😂😂😎😎😎😎
Luka should see that the Mavs have tried to give him more talent. The Unicorn was great on paper, but did not work out. They fired a coach Luka did not like. Brunson was developed nicely, but ultimately he decided to leave. They gave him another superstar, but is has not worked out yet. It's not like the Mavs do stuff against Luka's will, they try to accommodate him. Time for Luka to spend a whole off-season to get better on defense. If Kyrie has any pride, and the Mavs really want him to stay, they will make it work and with some new pieces to strengthen defense, they will be in the mix again in no time.
Why are these moderaťors lying that the fans don't like Luka? Are they making this stuff up, because they are hating the fact that a foreign guy is the face of their franchise?
