  1. I'll be sure to do that RexBeeperCruz.
  2. Flagg has nothing to do with the trade itself. He wasn't a pick or player included. They have Flagg right now and still a terrible team. Give me Luka any day of the week over Flagg/AD. One is unproven, the other is useless. That's kind of the whole point. Immediately after trading Luka for AD, they go from a Finals appearance team to a team who values this year's pick because they will be that bad of a team. Hence, the trade was as lopsided as you can get.
  3. Ruins the whole vibe
  4. All of those were slow burning, though. It took awhile for it to transpire and those front offices needed to do their part. This trade is different. There's nothing slow burning about it. They traded a primetime superstar who just took his team to a Finals months before, also with a pretty subpar supporting cast. It was Luka, Kyrie and a bunch of meh. Similar to 2006 when it was Dirk, Terry and a bunch of meh. But Luka and Dirk were so good that they elevated those supporting players and they looked better than they were. That Mavs team outside of Luka/Kyrie was not even in the same realm as the Celtics roster. The player they traded for was an aging, broken down player with a long injury history. Nothing about it was hindsight. It was said the second it happened, this was going to be terrible for the Mavs and would ruin any championship window they had with Luka. AD is not that guy, you can't build around him. Yes, Luka was injured as well but he's younger and injuries affect big men more. And now? The Mavs are looking to trade AD. That makes this trade infinitely worse. You essentially traded Luka for whatever they can scrounge up for AD in the end. Those trades listed above is even not close to how bad this was. This trade immediately tanked the Mavs into 90s level of sucking. Lakers now have a much longer future. And got rid of the baggage that is AD.
  5. Vandy was inches away from recovering the onside kick. With how that game was unfolding and how terrible our defense was, Vandy gets the ball back they probably go score to win in an all-time collapse. That was close to a SC/aggy collapse done in the final quarter. A lot of what Vandy was doing looked to be just garbage time and making the score look more respectable until it became very real we had a chance to lose the game. Thankfully, the ball or player went out of bounds before they could secure the onside.
  6. True but they at least participate in the SEC, where ND has no conference. One less potential game re: conference champ game. And being in no conference, they have no conference schedule to worry about. They can schedule whomever they want. They lost to aggy and Miami this year, win the rest of their shitty schedule, and are in because they are ND. Yes, they got to the national championship game last year but that doesn't discount their path is unlike any other team out there, they aren't apart of a conference. Also, aggy at least won all their games so far, one being against ND. ND lost both their toughest games so far.
