Huge Dallas sports fan. been one all my life. Dirk is the Goat. Jerry Jones has a lot of money. Rangers are getting a new stadium. Stars will win one soon.
Never went back to sleep. Man this is absolutely brutal. Makes no sense from a talent, entertainment, longevity, draft capital, or health perspective.
We’re sorry 77. No one wanted this.
My heart is broken. If you’re ever lucky enough to land a true franchise-carrying sports unicorn and all time great — Jordan, Kobe, LeBron, Magic, Bird, Shaq, Steph, Dirk — you don’t trade them. You build an empire around them. You thank the Sports gods for being so generous to have miraculously blessed your life with an absolute miracle.
And God forbid if you were ever forced to trade such a HoF unicorn, the return better be so much that you reshape your future with so many 1st round draft picks, and young players that you can almost make sense of it.
This just doesn’t add up for me
This is the single worst trade I've ever seen in my life. I am so angry I was born and raised in Dallas. Between the Cowboys and now the Mavs, I am in sports hell.
For years, Mavs fans have been terrified that Luka Doncic would eventually demand a trade out of Dallas to a team like… the Lakers.
He never did.
The Mavs organization, instead, made the biggest fear of its fans come true.

@NationMffl False. I love Luka. But what Dirk went through for Dallas to win their first title is unmeasurable. Luka will be a Dallas golden boy for as long as he is here. It’s comparing apples to oranges in my opinion.
