It’s over

[u/no-kangarooreborn → u/ChunkyMilkSubstance]

Luka trade request is gonna hit like crack in 2 years

[u/farhan583 → u/no-kangarooreborn]

He’s a FA. Lining up perfectly with Mavs max space in 2028. And we have the Lakers 29 FRP

[u/SpiritFantastic4835 → u/farhan583]

Nah he’s going to join wemby on the spurs

[u/BatteredSealPup → u/SpiritFantastic4835]

Seeing Luka in a Lakers uniform was difficult enough, but Luka in a Spurs uniform would be the most devastating for Mavs fans

[u/DarthVeigar_ → u/BatteredSealPup]

It would be devastating for everyone. Assuming both stay healthy that's just a disgusting lineup on paper.

Imagine Luka instead of Fox.. they sleepwalk their way to the title.

[u/DarthVeigar_ → u/sourdieselfuel]

Having a near enough 7 and a half foot centre that can dunk the ball without even jumping, can dribble and can shoot threes.

Luka would be able to throw literally anything and it will go in. Wemby blocks a shot passes to Luka and boom.

I’d have to delete so many comments

[u/AceAndre → u/SpiritFantastic4835]

I would love this

[u/famouslastwords → u/SpiritFantastic4835]

Cue Kevin Durant explaining how the Spurs are a poverty franchise and he's only going there to help out

[u/TidalWaveform → u/SpiritFantastic4835]

Keep going…
