In your opinion, who won the Mavs/Lakers trade?
Mavs won because they got a dynamic two-way big man to pair with Kyrie. Lakers are stuck hoping Rui Hachimura can fill AD’s shoes because Luka and LeBron are essentially the same player, LeBron is just more athletic. Unless the Lakers go get a big man this trade is a wash at best, but more in favor of the Mavs due to fit of the pieces.

As an outsider looking in, I disagree.
Lebron ain’t playing much longer, right?
You have your centerpiece in place now, that you can build a real team around.
Lebron will not have I put into the roster, because he’ll be calling the shots for his Las Vegas Mavericks franchise...

But what do I know??
🤷‍♂️

stfu then. Right?
 
I guess the question comes down to: Would you rather have an elite playmaker/ball handler paired with a big man that can give you 40 points and 20 rebounds, and 5 blocks any given night or would you rather have two elite playmakers?

Kyrie and AD are like a finesse version of Kobe and Shaq. I’ll take that over two guys that do the same things.

How about do away w/those dickheads completely & shut the NBA down. Makes my day.

Once LeBron retires we will finally get to see Knecht unleashed so I am excited about that. That is as long as they don’t trade Knecht before then. Kyrie and AD are in their age 33 and 32 seasons so they still have a solid 5 years in the league. Mavs are win now, Lakers have shifted to post-LeBron.
