Luka Dealt to Lakers: Nico Harrison is a Basketball Terrorist

[WildArkieBoy]

I think the Mavs are too unimportant on a global scale - which Doncic in succession of Nowitzki could have changed by the way - so I don’t think in 20 or 30 years a lot of people will know or care how it went down. 

It‘s like Shaq leaving the Magic to go to the Lakers or Kareem leaving Milwaukee to do the same. Luka will become a Lakers legend and global icon and nobody except us will care about his first few years in a mediocre franchise. 

Best case from our side is that Luka will do a LeBron and will come back in the future because he has unfinished business here. The chances of that happening are minimal because he feels much more at home in Madrid and Slovenia, I guess.

The door for a someday return has been shut and locked by Nico (not a winning "culture"), JKidd ("the player we traded") and Cuban ("I'd have gotten more for him").
