Why does it always feel so much better after reading QFTOS
Even in this case, it feels 9/10, then you go read the quotes to get to 10/10 _________________ Lakers, Chargers, Dodgers, Arsenal FC.

I hate the mavs eternally but I honestly feel really bad for them. If they traded a 26 year old Kobe I’d hope they burn down staples to the ground. |

92% of voters on the REALGM General Board thought the Lakers won the trade.
So many people are melting down in various threads on that board about how the trade was rigged by Silver, NBA corruption, etc.
It's a beautiful sight.

I guess in the long run it favors the Lakers but this season it favors Dallas. _________________ Coach Vogel, Kidd, Hollins

It’s okay Dallas! They got a great power forward for a few seasons and we got our next Kobe for a decade.  _________________ I miss you Kobe. I miss you Gigi. |

Woke up this morning and Luka Doncic plays for the Los Angeles Lakers so let’s keep the good times rolling and check in with fans of the Celtics.
Quote: | I’ve never been so disgusted by a trade in my entire life. |
Quote: | im so confused? why? would? the mavs? do that??????? |
Quote: | Thats the dumbest (bleep) I’ve seen in awhile |
Quote: | This can’t be real |
Quote: | I (bleep) love Luka. Been following him since before he got drafted. I have his Slovenian National team jersey.
This is the one team. The ONE team. God (bleep) damnit how do they keep falling up. |
Quote: | This is the worst trade in nba history unless Luka's got some crazy injury that he's not coming back the same from |
Quote: | Shocker. Lakers get handed another generational player for the next decade |
Quote: | What?? Surely this cant be real are the mavs stupid lol? |
Quote: | jesus christ mavs wtf are you doing |
Quote: | This is why I believe the league is fixed for the Lakers. There’s no actual reason why the Mavericks would do this. |
Quote: | This trade is so blatantly biased in favor of LA I wouldn't be surprised if the league struck it down. This is collusion, plain and simple. |
Quote: | I would’ve given em JB |
Quote: | Dallas owners 100% getting paid under the table for this one |
Quote: | I am refusing to believe it’s real because that’s the dumbest trade |
Quote: | This has to be rigged because NO ONE in their right mind would’ve done this. Hell, this trade is impossible in 2k for crying out loud |
Quote: | I’m (bleep) sick man. So sick of the Lakers being gifted players like this, but somehow everyone hates the Celtics more. (bleep) em and the clown fans of this clown league. |
Quote: | Genuinely may be the worst trade in NBA history, AD is 32 and is injury prone, Doncic is 25 and is still getting better… |
Quote: | Thanks to this absolutely disgusting trade, I literally haven't eaten breakfast nor lunch yet (I'm not from the US) and I don't think my appetite's coming back anytime soon within the next 12 hours lol
So (bleep) sickening watching the Lakers borderline cheat their way into relevance, while the rest of the league's 29 teams have to play ball with the rules. |
Quote: | The NBA needs to be investigated for allowing this trade to happen. Seriously, what the actual (bleep)? |
Quote: | I hate the Lakers so much |
Quote: | Woke up this morning, opened the espn app and saw some pic of Luka in a lakers jersey and thought “wow espn has really sunk so low that they have to make up dumbass fake trade scenarios for clicks” and turns out it actually happened lol |

My first reaction on hearing about the trade was, "Wut???"
My second reaction was, "Oh man, the rest of the NBA fans are gonna be on meltdown."

Maybe the number one reason to make this trade. Keep the shine in the jersey. Give LA a reason to believe in the direction of the team again. Probably keeps Jeanie and Rob safe from the mobs for at least another season. Keeps the Lakers competitive with the Dodgers in a way; as much joy as Dodger fans have watching the team thrive and build something truly great, there’s been pain watching the lakers seemingly crumble. This feels restorative |

They just reduced their window to be contender by about 5 years. I'm not surprised a lot of their fans are in shock and mad. |

Feel bad for the Mavs, but I still remember J Terry going nuclear vs Kob and Pau to end the Mambas final real title chance...so it's all working itself out 13 years later!! _________________ Magic*Kobe*LBJ*AD*Cap |

We should send some of our usual suspects to talk EVERY FANBASE and maybe they can have some luck convincing them how the Lakers lost this trade. |

They’re getting Anthony Davis
Solid B+ player
We just happen to be getting a generational talent in return. I know I know, it’s like if Milwaukee traded Giannis for Paul George. Still, they shouldn’t be too down in the dumps. _________________ I miss you Kobe. I miss you Gigi. |

oh man, love reading the Celtic fans reactions.
The Mavs, I just felt bad for them. I know how it feels when you feel your GM screwed up royally. I didn't enjoy their misery as much. |
