HALLELUKA: Luka Clinches All-NBA 1st team. 4th in 5 years

[KillerLeft]

the other thing I’d mention is it appeared to me that Cuban tried to be ‘less childish’ than usual through this process.  Not saying he nailed it, but CAA is a massive agency and you never know when you might want to revisit trading for some of the people you were targeting in a Brunson S&T.  So, whether he was coached to grow up a little or figured it out on his own, I thought it was important that he didn’t throw his usual tantrum.

I think this could go some ways towards explaining some of what doesn't connect for me. 

BUT, I still think you're all thinking from a logical starting point that MAXING OUT Brunson was never and should never have been an option considered. For me, what actually played out is worse than that. The second they figured out NY wasn't going to "need" to sign and trade, that stupid, crazy dollar offer should've been made officially. And if it was, it should've been made publicly.

Now back to Luka on this thread.... which is my fault....

 

Not your fault. I don't need much of an excuse to wallow in Brunson misery. 

I will be doing this for a decade, at least.
