Yeah, I wouldn't dispute that. Seems pretty clear that we weren't his first choice.

True! I still got the overall vibe that maybe Dallas wasn't KP's first choice, but you raise a very fair point about the question that Cuban intercepted. And clearly KP is on board now, so no matter the first impression it's the contract that counts.
BTW, regarding tampering my assumption is that Hypermav is referring to the story that the Knicks accused the Spurs of tampering with KP while he was a Knick.
Yes, and that part probably never sees the light of day.

True, but what's the tampering in that?

Just my opinion on tampering and I could be wrong...

Why would it have been tampering for the Knicks to deal only with the Mavericks as opposed to making him available to the highest bidder? Knicks idiocy, yes. Tampering, how so?

Otherwise, this would be a MC Shark Tank special where he says the deal is for now, it's off the table once you go to another team, which is perfectly legal.(12-12-2019, 04:52 PM)ClutchDirk Wrote:(12-12-2019, 04:20 PM)Scott41theMavs Wrote: .to carry on underhand or improper negotiations

Doesn't matter though. Sometimes you have to be bold. We got our guy, he signed an extension and now we're 25+% into the season and he still hasn't torn his ACL again. It's all good so far.
Now he just has to stay healthy, stay away from nigerian chicks and stop playing like a wuss on offense.

Was fun seeing him drive from the perimeter for a dunk
Not all just setups by Luka.
More please

He looks so much more decisive than he did even 2 weeks ago. I think the light bulb is starting to come on.

This KP poster was legendary.
I've never seen Andre Drummond get absolutely stuffed like that. KP did that on a 7fter!!!!

For the next two years all we have to worry about is KP´s health and happiness as Robin. But those are minor headaches.
Imagine in two years, when we have to work out whether Luka or Giannis is Batman, and whether KP wants to be Batgirl.
