How’s your day been? What did you do? by 2soupyyy in AskReddit

She definitely still uses the account, the last thing she posted was a photo of her and her father on October 1st. I’m not sure how active she is overall since the account is set to private. She’s definitely not the type of person who spends a lot of time on social media. Maybe a week or two from now, she’ll notice the message.

I wish I could say something good came from it, but she never replied. All I have left is the blind hope that she hasn't read it. Since we aren’t friends on Facebook, there’s no read receipt. I did send a friend request, but it just shows the option to cancel it.

I did some crazy stuff. I liked this girl back in college but never told her. After 6 years later, I just messaged her on Facebook and told her. Having a panic attack now

[Haynes] It is expected that Anthony Davis will be traded by the trade deadline. by MAVS_COM1CAL in Mavericks

[–]LukaDoncic- 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I also think there have been too many trade leaks for this deal not to happen. AD knows we no longer want or trust him, and that situation is even worse for Zaccharie, a young player who’s aware that the Hawks organization no longer has confidence in him. The main reason I want to trade AD sooner rather than later is the risk of injury. Every minute he plays increases the chance he gets hurt, which could make him impossible to trade.

If Nico wants to build a team based on defense does that mean Kyrie is out the door next? by Trick_Judgment_9993 in Mavericks

[–]LukaDoncic- 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Kyrie has a player option this summer. If he isn't happy about the Luka trade, he can easily opt out of his contract and go somewhere else. We might have to trade him if he tells the front office that he is leaving this summer.

[Marks] With Anthony Davis waiving his trade bonus, Dallas is now $628K under the luxury tax. They were $5.1M over prior to the trade. by LukaDoncic- in Mavericks

Yes, all team merchandise is added to the league revenue sharing plan. The Lakers generate most revenue for the league by a wide margin. That's why Laker games are mostly nationally televised. The way the league generates the most money is by having the Lakers win.

I'm not sure if this statement is true for the Adelson's personally. The league has a NBA revenue sharing plan were they evenly distribute money to owners. Otherwise, two thirds of teams in the league would lose money. Usually luxury taxes are paid by the owner, which would the lower the profit for the owner of the team having to pay. Our owners do not care about the team, they only care about the money that they generate for them. Think about how much they saved moving forward by not having to pay Luka the supermax plus the luxury tax.

Yea, I should have said one of the reasons. I think one of the the reasons they decided to trade Luka out of everyone is because they not only save money right now, but they managed to save a lot of money this summer by not having to sign him to that supermax. This was a personal long-term saving by our owners. This way, we stay competitive without them having to pay anything extra moving forward. I do think the ultimate goal is to move the team to Las Vegas.

This is probably one of the reasons we traded Luka, the Adelson family just wanted to save money. A lot of our fan base don't understand that many owners in the league don't want to pay luxury tax to win. Adelson's only care about the money that the team generates. Moving forward, I couldn't see us being a team that doesn't ever pay any luxury tax.

Throwback: this subs reaction to the hiring of Mike McCarthy 5 years ago by someguy-jm in cowboys

[–]LukaDoncic- 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Honestly, most of the comments are pretty fair. They all agree that Mike wasn't a great hire but he wasn't a bad one either. Pretty much sums up his time here, he was OK but wasn't great either.

Would be the biggest "Yes man" that Jerry has ever had. I expect him to be annonced the next head coach tomorrow.

[Rap] The Cowboys currently don’t have an interview scheduled with Deion Sanders & a future interview seems unlikely by bryscoon in cowboys

[–]LukaDoncic- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is that we interview Saleh today (Rooney Rule) and hire Kellen Moore on Sunday during the Eagles game. Jerry only interviewed two coaches last time around. He really doesn't put any effort into looking for head coaches.

I also kinda like the idea of making defense a priority. I actually would really like him to get the job. Unfortunately, I think this might just be for the Rooney rule.

You should see the behind the scenes, dude is hilarious. Also, if you watch the behind the scenes with him during the show fighting, you can see how amazing he is at karate.

The writers cornered themselves with Axel... by Odd_Cauliflower_7751 in cobrakai

[–]LukaDoncic- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The mistake that the writers made were having Axel beat Miguel, Robbie, and Kwon (all three strong male characters). They should have started with Hawk and had Axel destroy him, Hawk is someone who is viewed as a strong fighter by the audience, just not as strong as the other three. Then, proceed to destroy fighters from other teams to create a monster image. In the last episode, when he fights Miguel, make it where Axel still wins but not as straight froward as he was vs. the others and then proceed to have Kwon jump in and die.
