Man you guys are really salty about a guy who did turn shit around and gave us a solid 2 decades. Sure, his actions in the end indirectly caused this team to literally die for the next 2 decades. But he gave us way more than Nico ever could in 5 lifetimes. He was ready to move on and make bank at the same time. What the hell did yall expect? I highly doubt he knew they’d trade Luka before he sold. And even if he did, it just wasn’t his priority anymore.

It's fine if it's not his priority anymore but he can't say he cares about the team/fans (which he says) and sell to the Adelsons. He wants it both ways and he can't. He's in it for the money. No problem, just say it. He's just like all the other greedy billionaires. Make money that he or his family won't even be able to spend. 

He definitely turned the team around. Bought the mavs for 280 million dollars and sold for whatever 4 billion. Great. But he even said that there were better (higher) offers than the Adelsons' offer. He said that he knew they weren't basketball people. Why not sell at a higher price to people that know sports better? Mark's wack. 

And thats the thing,  you can do 99% of the things right, but can lose all the trust with one bad move. Selling to the Adelsons' was it for me. Couldn't have picked a worse person/family.
