I have been unwavering that until Nico AND the Adelsons go the Mavs to me are my team taken over by an alien inside. I can’t support them because every penny I give goes to enriching them and validating them to do things like these again in the future.
So as per Dumont, Shaq used to work hard every day? Clown. I can guarantee that Luka even with all his faults is a much, much harder worker. Also wake me up when Shaq played the most minutes in a playoff, has the highest usage rate and still led across all the major offensive categories. Jordan used to gamble and smoke and punch his teammates in practice. We all agree Luka has some growing up to do but the level of disrespect here tells me that Dumont doesn’t know much about basketball or the history of players.
Even if you agree with any or all of this it still makes ZERO sense on how this trade went down and how few assets were recouped. Maybe Nico needs to work hard and smart like a real GM like Pelinka or Dumont needs to work hard like real owners who understand how to build around prized assets that they were extremely fortunate to have. BTW wonder who gave this clown the info that Luka was destroying the Mavs culture. Was it mainly the same guy who secretively negotiated a terrible deal with his long time buddy?
