    Lol, what a bunch of horseshit. Inventing narratives without any knowledge about situation is dumb.

    Nico Harrison and Jason Kidd decided KP didn't fit their team and wanted two smaller contracts instead of one big contract. KP himself said he got along Luka outside of the court, but felt they didn't talk enough about stuff on court.

    Brunson said just last week he felt great in Dallas and wanted to stay a Maverick for his whole career.

    This year's Luka does lowkey remind me of 2016 Harden, great individual stats but a very disappointing team W/L record coming off an improbably WCF.

    Harden wishes he could have a team like the one Luka has now.

    Harden, Wood, and Kyrie would destroy the NBA.

    Luka not even making the play-in would be very embarrassing

    How do u lose 2 straight games to the Hornets?

    Mavs look like they play with no joy

    That team would be less than the sum of its parts. Harden would do better with 4 role players than a headcase ball hog and a selfish pouter.

    Really expected a lot more from luka but hes not on that level. Harden makes other great players better. Luka only knows how to get his own numbers

    Harden had the same roster in 2016 and 2015, the only difference was that Howard was beefing with Harden about post touches that killed the season. I don't know why the Mavs are bad, probably because they lost Brunson

    He is beginning to be called out for his Defense
    He has no defensive support
    Say what you will about Pat Bev . .. he played defense
    He was ok to play defense for two
    because Harden was playing offense for two

    Yeah thats cuz Nets have great role players and a good coach.

    Its the same thing as Rox 2018 with Harden and Cp3 we had role players but they were good role players and we took the most talented team in NBA history to 7 games.

    He won't be blamed for running Kyrie off because every team Kyrie goes to implodes eventually.

    I think the Mavs are tanking to keep their top 10 pick.
