Mavs Trade Luka to Lakers

[Bamx]

Damn Nico saved this man's career. Everyone wanted him dead, though....now Luka is taking his training seriously lol. Proud of him.

Thing is that Luka always gets into shape during the off-season. (This is mainly due to playing in the Euro league) It's when the NBA season is ongoing that he lets go a little more.

Mavs fans see the new Luka 2.0? Looks like message was received. Seems to be in great shape going into a new season.

The NBA superstar has taken plenty of heat for his conditioning and physique over the years, but after a full summer of training and lots of protein, he’s poised to take his game—and the Lakers—to another level.

This is mainly just a marketing scheme from his agent (and or possibly the Lakers) Luka does this stuff every year prior to the NBA season then he goes back to the more *lazy* Luka after the season starts.

Yeah honestly I get he put on a little weight but it’s exaggerated to make it seem like he was 300 pounds.

That being said, what a spit in the face to all of these die hard Luka fans in Dallas that he didn’t want to get in shape while making 200 million but gets to LA and wants to get In shape. I hope everyone who cried for him will move on now lol.

Even Cowboys legends like Emmitt Smith had a period where he was ignoring diet and workouts and had to change. Luka going to be scary if he really gets it now. Looks like a change to me.

The big knock on Luka is that he would train hard for the Euro league, but not for the NBA season. If you look at his past pics/videos from the offseason he was always in better shape than in the NBA season.

The big question for Luka and the Lakers is will he sustain it

Luka was already a top five player before this news.

He has the ability to be all-time great scary good.

Nico was, is, and will always be a moron for trading him for the crap compensation that he received.

Flagg, AD, Christie and a 1st rounder. I'd do it again.

Get your facts straight.

Flagg had nothing whatsoever to do with the trade.

The trade should’ve been AD, Christie, and about 4 unprotected 1st round picks.

Flagg for sure indirectly had something to do with it.

Whether you think the draft is rigged and he had a handshake deal in place....

Or if you feel getting rid of Luka opened up getting the 1st overall pick...

THey go hand in hand.
And while I agree 4 unprotected 1st round picks is probably what I would've expected....they would be crappy picks. None of them would ever be the 1st overall pick in the draft. So would I trade those 3 unprotected picks for a chance at the 1st overall pick in Flagg? I for sure would.
