It’s either the worst decision in modern sports personnel history by a GM that doesn’t belong running a 7-11 or the league is fixed.I still can't believe it. WTF are the Mavericks doing?

How the hell do you think I feel? This could quite possibly be the worst trade in the history of sports.Mavs fans how are y'all feeling about this trade?
All of this "good fortune" yet to this day, Lakers fans are still pissed about David Stern nixing the Chris Paul trade back in 2011.I think this is the part that pisses me off the most about this trade. The fucking Lakers? Again?

Dumb af trade to be sure, but c'mon, Hershel Walker trade destroys all still.How the hell do you think I feel? This could quite possibly be the worst trade in the history of sports.
@Texas Ace has already laid out Luka's notorious flippant attitude towards conditioning. Maybe the Mavs end up dodging a bullet in the long run. Luka strikes me as a guy who will be washed by age 33. Unless he gets his conditioning under control he's not going to be playing at an elite level in his mid to late 30s like a lot of the current stars.
I just saw Tim McMahon on Sports Center pretty much echo the Greg Anthony comment that I referenced. He said the Mavs don't trust Luka to stay in shape and don't want to put themselves in a position here they have to pay him $300 million supermax contract.
Therefore it looks like the Lakers are on the hook to pay him and pray that he doesn't eat and drink himself out of LA similar to Zion in New Orleans.
Must be nice to be a fat drunk and still get that rich off your natural talent, tho.On a positive note at least most of Dirk's Mavs scoring records are safe.
Luka is unlikable. That douche didn't deserve to supplant Dirk in the Mavs' record books.
I made this exact point.If you're going to trade him because he's unreliable, then why the hell are you trading him for another unreliable player?!
Wow. Did Jerry and Stephen take over the Mavs too?
