    Lol imagine sending dinwiddie out only to have to get him back for a malcontent.

    Can't tell if that's a win or loss but fuck Kyrie.

    Crazy times. That's not in reference to what this trade has us going through right now as fans, that's what the Mavs can expect for the rest of this season and as long as they choose to keep Kyrie. Dinwiddie, Finney-Smith a first and two seconds?!? That is a fucking terrible overpay not on Kyrie's talent but on the kind of presence the guy is. The dude is a disruptor who is about as smart as the disruptors in The Glass Onion.

    shocked. that was not much for an all star. How is that even possible. MIN gives 4 FRP and good talent for Rudy MF'ing Gobert? One FRP 6 years from now and DFS and SD?? how can that be??

    They'll try to rehab his image then get a haul when they trade him.

    Weird trade. Not sure this makes the Mavs better but it's a bold move I guess.

    Luka is hitting his prime in 2029. That pick may be astronomically high.

    Or, Kyrie's antics sour the locker room in Dallas, and Doncic demands a trade and Mavs are left with nothing.

    More time without Luka on the ball is good news for the opponents. I guarantee they won't beat the Blazers again this year!

    Well, at least Kyrie will be right if he says "Texas is flat".

    I'm gonna stick my neck out here and predict (a) Kyrie's calf is going to be fine all of a sudden, and (b) Kyrie will miss random games for some dumb shit at some point this year with Dallas.
