Nico Harrison hasn’t been afraid to take big swings.

His detailed, disciplined life outlook clashed with the style of his superstar.

But opting to trade Luka Dončić was no rash decision.

Do you guys keep posting this article in hopes the comments trashing him go away?

It was a horrible trade. It's either incompetence of the GM, or underhanded desires of the new owners

nj-unu.bsky.social•92 days ago

And then he decided to trade for AD a.k.a. Street clothes a.k.a. Mr. Glass 🤣

ak1970.bsky.social•92 days ago

That makes it worse.... This means he thought long and hard about if and how to trade Luca and this was the outcome?

jtb03.bsky.social•91 days ago

So they traded him for someone whose body has already broken down because they couldn’t stand the suspense

michaelmgonzalez.bsky.social•92 days ago

Yet he traded for ANTHONY DAVIS

Yeaaa lotta damage control happening for a guy who traded an international superstar for peanuts.

cidmcdp.bsky.social•91 days ago

Did this dude come from tech because that's some vintage silicon valley galaxy brain there. Massive stats, but will his body break down? Yeah, dodging bullets us smooth brains barely perceive.

kmgreen6.bsky.social•92 days ago

BUT HE TRADED HIM FOR AN OLDER, MORE BROKEN DOWN PLAYERS. I shout into the void

mikeguido.bsky.social•92 days ago

He thought Luka would break down and get hurt so he traded for Anthony Davis😂

Fire Nico

mazeltrick.bsky.social•92 days ago

Joke of a puff piece to help Nico and Mavs save face. It doesn’t matter how this trade turns out in hindsight. It’s malpractice to leave assets on the table when trading a 25 yo superstar.

ski-daddle.bsky.social•92 days ago

What a glaze on Nico. The damage control after a shitty trade after the original stories coming out is insane. Dallas continues to be tone deaf. Big "let them eat cake" vibes.

notoriousdnp.bsky.social•92 days ago

But he didn’t take a big swing. He just bunted hoping the (oft hurt) old big man on second would score. Mavs fans don’t care about Nico’s life outlook. Mavs fans want to know if you are going to trade Luka why not be honest about it and shop him

oneirodynia.bsky.social•92 days ago

It’s a rash decision when it’s made on the basis of completely unscientific notions like drinking Arnold Palmers is “liquid death”. Is all their health info from Reddit? These people are fools.

jullz-3700.bsky.social•92 days ago

PR machine is working double time to make Nico's wild trade seem reasonable. No one is buying it. Mavs gonna have to eat that turd sandwich.

herkyturkey.bsky.social•92 days ago

His thoughts on Luka can be true, but you need to get more than an injury prone 32 year-old and a late future first.

knoef.bsky.social•92 days ago

that was, is and always will be for a long time the most idotic trade of nba hisory. not even a mavs championship in the next 3 years will make it right.

lapsoirium.bsky.social•92 days ago

It’s going to come back to bite him and the team many times over. I feel really bad for Mavs fans. They deserved better, which was a future with Luka.

harpaldhillon.com•92 days ago

That's fine but then it doesn't make sense to include AD as part of the trade considering his body already breaks down often...
