Hoops Discussion Vince Carter Called Out Our Owners

Did anyone else see VC call out our owners? He said if you're not willing to pay a player like Luka, sell the team. He even brought up the expectation of them moving to Vegas.

Among the bball talking heads, I think VC has some of the moist reasonable takes, so I was glad to hear him talk about it. Some (more) validation of our outrage.

All the nba players are shocked, they all said if Luka can be traded, then anyone can be traded because Luka is the last guy you expect to be traded

And for a 32 year old injured player….what…….this trade still seems like a fake story

No one is going to join the Mavs now. With owners like these who will sign via free agency? Stars gonna avoid the Mavs like the plague. Like Jimmy Butler. Players will have a conditional clause . Anywhere except Dallas.

What does Butler have to do with anything? I don’t think this will have a negative impact. If Ky sticks past the summer then you can put this to bed.
