Luka needs to lock in

Before Laker nation celebrates, ask yourself why did the Mavs let Luka go, and you already know the answer.

The lack of exemplary leadership, the on court whining, the weight and conditioning, the knees that need to be covered in 2 tons of ice post game at 25 years old.

The Mavs felt they could not win a championship with Luka and frankly they are correct. They got bitch slapped by the Celtics when Luka was having his best year and a historic playoff performance.

The Mavs said “we cannot get the best out of Luka, if someone else wants to try, go ahead”

And the Lakers said we will give it a shot. If LeBron cannot teach Luka how to be a professional, then no one can. It is POSSIBLE that this trade is the greatest thing the Mavs could do for Luka’s career and thus the NBA. The Mavs may very well be saying “Luka, this is the best thing for you and we want you to evolve, we are sorry we could not be the ones the catalyze it”
