Luka is no different than LeBron, Kevin Durant, Jayson Tatum and so on.

The superstars are all about themselves.

Grant is a very nice role player in the league and he is going to Charlotte his hometown.

Win,win for Grant, even though Hornets are absolutely horrible.

If you look at results, Luka is quite different than those 3.

Luka didn't get along with Porzingis and seems to have trouble getting along with a bunch of people. Those rumblings have been out there for a while from reputable sources. He has had times where he was out of shape and had poor body language on the court along with not playing defense.

That’s unfortunate for Dallas seeing as he’s the face of their organization (besides Cuban himself).

There have been plenty of reports over his time in the league that Luka is a bit of a "me" player and not the hardest worker. Maybe that speculation is misplaced. I don't know. I am not an ardent follower of the NBA.

It’s probably not. I’ve seen him in some interviews and such but don’t keep up with the nba too much either.

Going from head coach to offensive coordinator? Doesn’t make sense.

Going from sunny Southern California to dreary Columbus Ohio? Doesn’t make sense.

Taking a massive pay cut for slightly less managerial duties? Doesn’t make sense.

I. Don’t. Get it.

UCLA had already telegraphed intentions of firing him as head coach. Gettin' out while the gettin's good!

I wonder how much failure money he surrendered in the process?

Really?
LeBron got coaches fired and sent Russell Westbrook packing after begging Lakers to trade for Russ.

Kevin Durant asked for a trade everytime he gets his feelings hurt or things aren't going his way.

Tatum may be different but he hasn't thrown his temper tantrum yet.

Doesn't matter though only difference is a few Championship.

Not necessarily in personality but in results. Luka has one conference finals appearance. Lebron, KD, Tatum....not even comparable.

It is one thing to be a star who makes demands, but players want to play with you. It's another who makes demands, and players don't really care to play with you. Rumblings are the latter with Luka. The Mavs had to trade for Kyrie to add a second superstar and in hindsight, letting Brunson go was a mistake.
