#Mavericks traded Trae Young & a 2019 1st Rd pick who was (Cam Reddish #10th overall selection )
FOR
Luka Doncic.
Drafted Jalen Brunson -> with the 33rd selection.
What Nico Harrison was handed after taking over in 2021.
Harrison & Cuban -> let Brunson leave as a Free Agent after refusing to offer him the $55 Million extension he sought after his rookie contract was set to expire after one more season.
Traded Luka Doncic -> Anthony Davis, MAXX Christie & a 2029 1st RD pick.
If #Mavericks re-signed Brunson for $55 million they could have received a haul similar to D. Bane or D. Mitchell cost:
1 young stud & 3-4 unprotected 1st Rd picks & 1-2 swaps
Luka should’ve netted them at least 5-6 unprotected 1st’s & 1-2 of the other team’s best young players.
Instead all they got was:
5-6 quarters of Anthony Davis
1st RD pick in 2029
MAXX Christie
Chance to pay Kyrie Irving $245 Million across 6 seasons:
• 2022-23 (partial season): 20 games
• 2023-24: 58 games
• 2024-25: 50 games
• 2025-26: 0 games (missed the entire season recovering from ACL surgery)
Meanwhile Brunson will only cost the #Knicks $260 Million for his first 8 seasons.
Nico Harrison is the DUMBEST MF on the planet -> and should stick to doing PowerPoint presentations for Nike.
Man is terrorist if you’re a #Mavericks fan.
Great job by Cuban trying to lowball Brunson -> no wonder he looks more & more like Rosie O’Donnell from the SHAME 😱

@SubwayTakes@JLo There's at least half a dozen guys who wish she had the same mentality about alimony.
There's another half dozen guys who ARE GLAD she didn't have the same mentality about boom-boom time
When your coworker is getting roasted by the boss for asking a question but you're working on the same project and you're the one who told him to ask it
“He didn’t have the athleticism. He didn’t have the size. So what gets you over? Mental toughness, hard work & being very, very skilled”

Jörg Sprave's "Instant Ronin" Double Tanto has sliding mechanism that allows the two separate extended-length knives to combine into a single, compact housing. The blades are designed to unlock each other, allowing them to slide back into their own handles. Once they are out of their handles, they are in a “locked out” position and usable blades. Really impressive work of innovation and engineering! Really darn cool.

Nick Wright is such a fool always trying to diminish Kobe and Mike to prop up fraudulant LeBron. We lived in Kobe’s era we know he was the BEST player for a while! Team USA had to bring in Kobe to win again because Bron didn’t know how to lead or win ✌️
