Why is a senior citizen on the show
I consider Dray to be a very articulate person so I'm shocked that he also can't say "asked" properly. He also says "axed."
Dray I still want you to go to Dallas as a coach.
watching from Philippines
Luka n Trae will be champs but Luka will be there for 20 like dirk n ice Trae funna go to the spurs next seas🤙lol
the mavs know how to steal gold from stupid teams …… first they stole dirk nowitzki from the bucks during the late 90's then they stole luka77 from the hawks …… they know how steal gold when they see stupid teams like what the spurs did when they stole kawhi leonard from indy pacers… go spurs go !!!!!! 😂🤣😂🤣-😜😜😜😜😜😜
Unforgiveable…….that's what Coach said Unforgiveable, though near or far
No ask him how he lost Brunson
Is Mark wearing lipstick?
That draft was pretty stacked (Jaren Jackson Jr., Mikal Bridges, Jalen Brunson, SGA, Michael Porter Jr., DeAndre Ayton, Anfernee Simons, and a bunch of solid players like Bruce Brown, Wendell Carter, Chimeze Metu, Jarrod Vanderbilt, Donte DiVincenzo and more) and the Hawks used the 3rd pick to get one of the 5 best players (depending on how you feel about Brunson, Bridges, and SGA) and another 1st. Good on the Mavs for getting the best player and another member of the top 5 (Brunson), but honestly, the Hawks had the 2nd best draft after Dallas.
Yep… Generational players might not be top drafts btw… look at Jokic 41st pick, but in my opinion Luka is on a different level at a younger age. He is putting out Oscar Robertson type of numbers… 34 pts 9 rebs 10 assists
better tell your coach to use timeout correctly when it needed most to use. when opponents get their momentum
Trae just need to go to spurs if he made plays for Collin’s the shit he would do with wemby is crazy..
Mark Cuban is full of it.
Trae over Luka is draft malpractice 💀 Cuban finessed
Mr Cuban the hawks didnt play the ecf in traes rookie season, I think they didnt make the playoffs
MVP
Jordan lead his team to the playoffs his rookie year fyi
Cuban doesn't even know what his team did. Trae made the CF in 2021. They were drafted in 2018-19. Luka made the playoffs his sophomore year, in the bubble. Trae didn't make it then. Hawks made the CF the following year. I mean cmon cuban.
I feel like a culture thing had something to do with it too. Atl and Trae would relate more in that city to where as Luka would mesh more in Dallas metropolitan area. 🤷🏾♂️
Traes better
Can Draymond stop talking please?
voulgaris?
Luka still cant put a team on his back and drag the thru the playoffs. For that i cant call him a generational talent just yet. Need to see the results first. Also the guy is not a gym rat like the greats
Jordan did make the playoffs in his first couple of years. He made it with a terrible team his rookie season too.
To make the disaster complete, the Hawks only need to trade Trae to the Spurs now, and watch him win three to five titles with Wemby and become an hall of famer
I’m in Atlanta and love Ice Trae (second best player in franchise history with a chance to be first, hall of famer). Give Trae a healthy AD in the post and the balance of power in the East shifts (2nd seed for sure with a chance at the 1). Having said that, these things happen to Atlanta. Remember, some years back, Atlanta took Marvin Williams out of NC over CP3 at a time when Atlanta was desperate for a point guard.
im new to the channel make sure you hit that j pool button
With all your emotional, mental and anger problems, I’m surprised they haven’t deleted you from this app.. Done with you…….
Value, Trade was even. Hawks got mavericks 10th pick the next season, they just wasted it. Tyler herro brandon clarke grant williams were avaliable. Luka probably better than trae by a little bit (but crazy overrated, watch him get destroyed by kawhi a 3rd time this 1st round).
Dray – you need to figure out staying in the game. I cheer for you guys to bring one last one home
I’m not sure Luka is better than Dirk. Dirk just played to the rules of his time.
STEPHEN A WOULD STILL PICK BRUNSON OVER LUKA. OR MAYBE AYTON OVER LUKA. 🤣 COCAINE IS BAD
I agree Luka is pretty dam good but it’s not translating into playoff success let’s wait and see in 5 years before we start crowning him
Cuban loves to talk about how smart he is.
Nobody likes Trae over Luka the worse trade in history
Imagine being the general manager that got overruled by the owner for that trade…. Fuck he would be fuming but would also be able to give the owner shit every single special Luke game…
Dray is hella brainfarting in this interview maybe cuz its cuban…
billionaire using a toaster webcam and mic
I love Draymond low-key calling Cuban out for being an owner who meddles in his GMs' business and Cuban awkwardly shrugging lol
Marks like .. why did I do this
Now ask him how he lost Brunson
That way leagues don’t want Luka with the mavs
