Not only that, on ESPN they reported that Dallas didn’t even shop Luka to the rest of the league. They apparently just decided that they absolutely, positively, HAD to have Anthony Davis. And damn if they didn’t get their man. They’re like the Mounties.I GOT SO MANY TEXTS, I GOT OUT OF BED TO CHECK. WHAT IS HAPPENING?!
Given Stein's reporting that there was no trade request, this is the worst NBA trade of my lifetime. Maybe in any sport? Maybe the worst move of any kind?
I really don't think the Flyers have ever made a trade that was really even close to this bad. I'm having a hard time thinking of any trade that was as bat-shit crazy as this.It really is full Flyers. Windhorst flat out said they decided they weren't going forward with Luka and that was the end of the discussion. They set out to trade him and were doing it no matter what.
He immediately came to my mind after that trade. I know he would've sent about 10 picks for Luka. No way the Lakers talked to every team right?Oh good. The rigged league idiots are spreading to other threads. The most loser energy possible.
Anyway, here's what really matters here. The Thunder own a Dallas 2028 pick swap. Davis and Kyrie will be 35 and 36.

There might be a naughty word or two in there but KD’s reaction…
Gretzky trade to LA is the only thing comparable perhaps.The reporting is that they specifically set out to acquire AD, yep. They surely could have gotten a chest of assets from almost any team -- OKC, Houston, San Antonio, whatever.
This is the best player and the best asset to be traded in the modern history of the NBA. Well, ok, technically LeBron was traded to Miami. But we know that's not what happened.
Yeah, I saw that too.There's video out there of Durant and others finding out on the bench last night by reading someone's phone.

And even then many knew Edmonton was cash poor at the time so there was at least justification.
Owners are rich fools but it takes a reallllly rich fool to pay one guy 350~400/5.
Thats higher value than Ohtani/Soto. With no deferrals.
