Luka Doncic traded to Lakers for Anthony Davis and Lakers 2029 1st in a 3 team deal (9 Viewers)

Well, I like it a lot for the Lakers lolz. Some people have Luka as the best in the league and he's still youngish.

Leave it up to the NBA to report trades at Midnight

So, is Davis not still represented by Klutch Sports? And LeBron claims he knew nothing about it?

 

[slaym]

I am sure LeBron was like "That's All Folks" regarding Anthony Davis.

 

[St.RobE]

Worst trade in NBA history.

 

[GrayMatter78]

Dumbest trade ever and it makes both teams worse IMO.

The Lakers have no big in the frontcourt, LeBron can't really play the 4 for any amount of time. Jackson Hayes is all they have .

Dallas may benefit more because now Kyrie has to be the main scorer and AD gets to play the 4 like he wanted to. Clay Thompson will benefit a lot from the open shots.

Lakers gets players gifted to them all the time ,it's so blatant .
Nobody else would had 25 years old Doncic (who got to the finals last year) for one 1st round pick and 31 years old AD

This league i the worst ,collusion everywere for big markets. It looks more and more like the WWE.

That is exactly the first thought I had. This feels very WWE'ish. It is like the writers stepped in due to the ratings sucking and needed to do something crazy.

Worst trade in NBA history? LOL, try the worst in SPORTS history.

This is literal betrayal at the worst dumbest order.

[I'm not a Pels fan, btw.]

Only the worse trade than this is Babe Ruth to the arch nemesis. That can't be topped.

interesting that everyone here is saying it's awful but not everyone agrees who won the trade.

Vegas seems to agree with me. I wouldn't want AD anywhere near my organization.

"The trade significantly altered the NBA betting market, as the Lakers moved from 40-1 to 16-1 to win the NBA title at ESPN BET early Sunday morning, behind only the Thunder (+225) and Nuggets (+1400) in the Western Conference. The Mavericks, on the other hand, dropped from 25-1 to 40-1 at ESPN BET before moving back to 33-1 early Sunday."

How are they going to win an NBA championship with no frontcourt? Jaxson Hayes?? Not to mention, JJ is not a good coach at all.

Bruh, Mavs' fans are looking for pitchforks over this. Can't say I blame them.

Silver is popping bottles now that Luka is in L.A.

People are overlooking something. There has been rumbles that Doncic wasn't going to stay with the Mavs and could have opted out next season. And no matter how good he is on offense, when he is on defense he might as well play for the other team (plus his conditioning issues are worse than Zions). With the new luxury tax rules, paying a one dimensional player (no matter how good he is on offense) is a huge gamble. Plus Doncic SUCKS as a team leader.

Good chance the Lakers get exposed in the playoffs. As history shows, teams with good defense win significantly more in the playoffs. The Lakers have virtually no defense without AD
