Did we forget Luka averaged 35, 9 and 8 last year and led his team to the finals?

[@dlabrooknaum7316]

Yes the world forgot except you

[@JuanSuero-ln9vr]

he doesnt play D. not supermax material.

@@tylerferguson8421 they had BRUNSEN AND HIM. NOW THEY HAVE KYRIE AND HIM. THE PROBLEM IS HIM. get out of platos cave man. these owners have owned other businesses. everytime its the same nonsense. ohh how could we survive without that super chef guy. so they can him and hire any old chef . turn out the title of the store was the reason the food taste good. it was a unifying concept and the chef was just a bit player in that. mavericks go look it up.

Him and Irving led the mavs to the finals... not just him.

Knicks never had a shot at Luka . wtf are you talking about??

[@Bennnj10]

That’s what I’m saying. These guys are idiots

[@Bennnj10]

As if Dallas was like “here, you can have Brunson or Luka, which one do you want?” 😂🤡

[@JuanSuero-ln9vr]

no Einstein its. Knicks made the right call. The pointed out that Brunsen was a franchise player. the Mavericks pointed out that Luka wasnt only after letting Brunsen go because they thought Luka was.

[@breakingbianca]

All of a sudden people talk of Luka like he trash yet say they didnt get enough. Make it make sense.

[@mauriceaucoin1368]

He's definitely a top 8 talent but why is it so hard to win with him and why is his conditioning always an issue?

[@JuanSuero-ln9vr]

he doesnt play D. not supermax material.

[@luke3172]

Knicks made the right call? The Mavs weren’t giving up Luka to the Knicks. It’s not like there was a choice, and the Knicks said, “we don’t want Luka, we’ll take Brunson”.

[@stevenhs9773]

Problem is that they think that Luka is going to be the next Embiid. If they truly believe that, then moving on is the right move.

[@KG131.]

Bull shit …then why trade him for another injury prone player

[@keysersoze3962]

But he has nothing close to the injury history that Embid does and is only 25 years old! Embid 30 with bad knees.

[@stevenhs9773]

@@KG131. I don't think they plan on offering a SuperSuperMax to ADavis in 2027. They probably just want to enjoy what he can give for the next two seasons, win a chip, then restart the entire franchise at that point.

[@stevenhs9773]

@ But he's already starting to show signs of it, is the point.

[@KUFanFromNJ]

Brunson is not even in the same stratosphere as Luka. These same dopes think Pete Alonso has a market lol. Evan and Keith might be the only guys on WFAN with any clue of what's going on in sports

[@gkatusared]

Agreed..

[@K_Reezee75]

Luka cant D up he is great but not a two way player. Better than Brunson he better be being that tall but please stop overrating this guy. People calling him the next Larry Bird. Please stop.

[@shawn_and_one]

But Brunson will win a chip before him..and is a far better leader in the locker room. NY call Brunson the Captain

[@erickgonzalez7603]

You're bugging. Luka is a tad bit better. I rather have Brunson who takes his craft seriously and has proven to be just as clutch in big moments!

[@prosandconsfilms6933]

These idiots, after the Jets win over the Texans on Halloween, said the Jets would win every remaining game except the Bills. Let that sink in...

[@patricklangley4484]

ive seen Luka in the finals. Ive never seen Brunson do that.

[@Quazey8]

Was that Luka or Kyrie? Brunson has never had a healthy Irving as a side kick. He had Julius Randle lol. Not the same

[@brycetheoddball]

Almost like there is more to basketball than the individual and it’s like you need a team to accomplish some things.

[@RonaldEtienne-j8f]

While he was in the final did he win?

[@p00l95]

Team sport

[@CheeseburgerChester69]

Oh please if Brunson went to the Mavs rn he’d take them to the finals when he’s got AD, Kyrie, and Gafford

[@MrDoit187]

yall gon realize what luka is capable of, when he starts playing serious. hes been on record saying the nba ist way too easy for him. now his body is really starting to tell him "hey we cant keep this up". once he does what he needs to do, luka magic is actually going to happen. you dont ever trade a player like that and it will bite the mavs in their behinds. im saying that as a knicks fan, whos happy to have brunson and wouldnt change a thing.

Lebron once again gets what he wants. Point blank.

[@myhairline4466]

Luka is literally a top 3-5 player

[@chrisgotti279]

Luka carried the Mavs franchise since he got drafted and recently took them to the finals and they traded him for so little. Something doesn’t smell right 🤔

[@EighthAveEntertainment]

The “LeBron is soft” shot at the end is why people who…aren’t from the area like KAT or have a parent on staff are not excited about being in this market. Stop acting like the Knicks haven’t won in 51 years.

[@mkadoza]

Based on Sal's description, he would hate the James Hardens of teh world as well, and we know how they feel about Melo...

[@Oneshotdee]

These guys said they not giving up 6 ft Brunson for 6’7 luka who’s younger and he’s a walking 30+ triple double who can carry you to the finals .. both have piss poor defense but Luka is 6’7 .. Brunson hardly 6 feet lmao

[@Brhoward31]

Nah, he's 6'2 legit; people said AI was 5'11 and he's def 6'1

[@Oneshotdee]

@ bro I seen Brunson before eye to eye .. that man ain’t over 6’1.. that’s the tallest.. and your the shortest player in the league at that height.. Luka is 6’7 260 lmao like what are we even talking about .. the man avg 35 9 and 9 last year .. and went to finals carried that team .. Brunson got KAT bridges OG.. I bet you he won’t take this team to finals but you swap Luka for Brunson we are literally the championship favorites.. imagine Luka having bridges OG and KAT .. lmao be real

Please WFAN stop having these dopes talking im not even hating they just don’t what they talking about

[@mauriceaucoin1368]

The Issue is, Brunson is a much better PG than Luka. He also does a better job of controlling the flow of the game than Luka however in my opinion Luka is more gifted but Brunson is a much smarter player than Luka. Its one thing to stuff the stat sheet but its another thing to know how and what it takes to win games.

[@homerunhitters333]

KNICKS GOT RAPED OF ALL THEIR PICKS, JULIUS RANDLE, AND DONTE DIVINCENZO FOR BRIDGES AND TOWNS. LAKERS GET LUKA DONCIC FOR DAVIS.

[@steele41]

"Jason Kidd is a straight shooter"? BT should be fired for saying that

[@hens13]

Open with the JT Miller trade NOT this

[@demian12589]

In what world would the Mavs call the Knicks asking for KAT and/or Brunson back as the main piece for Luka!? AD better than both as far as that goes, want to talk extras Knicks can add more easily but Brunson/KAT do NOT equal Luka/AD

Luka is the truth European players are so fundamentally sound they can perceive to be out of shape.

[@jeremiahzambrotta5580]

Guys Luka was due a super max max deal. They got rid of that. That has to be considered. They are off the hook. If Luka got that deal tell me he starts hittinf the weights? Guys hes hasnt played in 32 days. He hasnt played more than 65 games ever.

[@SuperDman82]

Don't the Mavs have different owners who have the share majority over Cuban now?? Couldn't it be possible this is just them saying what they want and telling the team office to execute it??? I feel like everyone is forgetting here that not every billionaire who owns these teams even though they need to make money for the teams they own actually cares that much!!!! If this was Cuban then were having this discussion!!!

If the word has gotten out it wouldn’t be Luca for Giannis, Luca for Embiid etc. other teams will want Luca to team up with their stars. So Mavs did the right thing. However I’d trade Towns for Davis now and 2 2nds or that 2031 pick

If NOP haven't traded Zion and everybody talks about Zion being great if he can stay in shape give me a break with Luka he's a TOP player in the whole league right now when healthy and playing and that's often lol. The New Mavs i.e non Mark Cuban led hates Luka and didn't want to spend the super max money next year lol but moving him this way to the Lakers was bushleague lol

What a Horrible loss at home on Saturday night.....and now we're always going to be associated/linked with "the biggest trade in NBA History", the lakers win in the Garden then this trade happens.......

[@goonsquad9148]

All time stupidest take. He's 25 and can correct his conditioning habbits before he even enters his true prime. And even with being overweight he still carried his team to the finals last year beating the team everyone was sold on being ready to go to the finals that were much deeper. Shoutouts to Brunson for 2022's epic first round playoff series against the Jazz but when Luka came back and they went down 3-1 to the 64 win Suns he put on a historic performance to send them to the WCF. Brunson is not capable of doing that and im Knicks fan. If anything the statement you made "If you watch basketball you can understand it more" is the opposite: If you watch basketball you cant believe this actually happened. But the big picture here on why its such a horrific trade is how low they sold him for and the incompetency to not reach out to the entire league to get the top bidder is baffling. Know wonder Cuban took a step back. God bless Mavs fans right now

[@nahmeanson1017]

Mitch for Austin Reaves.....🤔🤔🤔👀👀👀.......
