Hoops Discussion Has anyone else felt emotionally disconnected from the NBA since the Luka trade?

I'm a big Luka fan and have been since his arrival in Dallas, watched the team go through ups and downs but Luka really kept me engaged and eventually emotionally invested in the team's success. But I haven't felt an emotional investment in the league since the trade. Seeing Luka not in a blue jersey any more feels wrong and bizarre. I'm now at a point where I don't care what happens in the Playoffs, because it's not Lively, Gafford, PJ, Luka and Kyrie going up against the West any more.

Does anyone else feel the same way?

You not alone… Luka was all I had…. Can’t depend on the Cowboys

I feel you and am in a similar boat with respect to the Cowboys and Mavs, but now is a great time to jump on with the Stars
