Perhaps Luka is really a product of his generation, soft and unmotivated to get himself better. We will have to wait and see how he responds in the offseason.

No excuses for Luka - he was outplayed and destroyed by a team of better players. His legacy will be created by how he responds to this loss - either as a future NBA all time great, or simply another end of generation entitled millennial.

Luka bag holders will have to wait a bit longer for this one…..
I never get why people go as low as saying fans are bag holders.

It's pretty clear almost all in this thread aint gonna sell even if he got a bump. Plus he's priced in to win.

Bringing up LeBron is another baffling one. Man, he actually lives rent free in your head. As a Bron "hater" myself, take a break.

I think any team would take Tatum and Brown over Luka or Jokic. Pretty simple math there.

Exhibit A.

I swear I've seen you complain about complaining over and over.

LOL, I’m a heavy Luka bag holder myself and proud of it!

No shame in that except for the whining, sort of.

Klay Thompson is headed to Dallas. Thompson intends to sign a three-year, $50MM contract with the Mavericks, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN (Twitter link), who says the deal will include a player option.

As Wojnarowski outlines, the Mavs will acquire Thompson from Golden State in a three-team sign-and-trade, with swingman Josh Green heading from Dallas to the Hornets in the deal.

Green was one of a few who gave.maximum effort off the bench. I think this frees up Jaden Hardy to be a Brunson type 2nd unit rotation off the bench and 15-20 min a game. He showed enough to earn it.

Why stars didn’t need help though?

MJ needed Pippen, Rodman, Oakley and a bunch of other all-stars.

LeBron needed Wade, Bosh, Irvine, Allen, etc.

KD needed Curry, Klay, Draymond, Iguodala, etc.

Kobe needed Shaq, Gasol, Odom, Artest, Fisher, etc.

Magic and Bird needed so many all-stars.

It was a joke about the common argument on Lebron is that he has needed help, and isn't good enough to win on his own.

What kind of dumbazz post is this?

Luka is playing with a bunch of cast offs and 3rd stringers.

They just faced a team that has a ton of talent. Picking up Klay is hardly picking up a Superstar

So far this offseason, the team has essentially swapped out three wings – Tim Hardaway, Derrick Jones, and Josh Green – for three new ones: Klay Thompson, Naji Marshall, and Quentin Grimes.

A future HOF on decline but can still spot shoot. Which no one could.in finals. 3 yr 50mm

Not bad when you compare Timofey Mozgov getting 4 yr 64mm from the Lakers in 2016.

The key difference is that Klay will be asked to be their 3rd, maybe even 4th scorer.

GS needed him to be their 2nd and he's not that guy any more.

Cannot wait
