Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hee hot, bitch, it's time for Donkey of the Day.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
I'm a big boy. I could take it if he
feel I deserve it. Ain't no big deal.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
I know Charlottegeae God gonna have funny say out of
his mouth.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
He's gotta say something you may not agree with. It
doesn't mean I mean who's.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Getting that dunk that donkey that don't don't don't dun't dunk.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Donkey other day right here to the breakfast club.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Bitch, you can call me the donkey of the day,
but like I mean, no harm.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Yes, Donkey of the day from Monday, February third, Go
to Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison. If you haven't heard,
the Dallas Mavericks traded Luca don Chicks. How you pronounce
his name dunks don chick Luca? Okay, Luca is twenty
five years old.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
He was Rookie of the Year. He's been to the
All Star Game five times.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
He led the league in scoring last year, averaging over
thirty three game, and he took the Map to the
NBA Finals last year. He's a franchise player, okay, the
type of player you build around.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
But Nico Harrison doesn't seem to think so.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
So Luca was traded to the Dallas Mavericks, I mean,
to the to the Los Angeles Lakers by Anthony Davis,
who's no sloucher his damn self.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Okay, he's got a care rare average of twenty.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Four to ten, nine time All Star, four time All
NBA First Team, two time All NBA Defensive Team, but
he gets hurts a lot one years old. Okay, Look,
I could be totally premature with this, he haw because
I believe Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irvin are gonna be
great in Dallas. But some things make sense and some
things don't make sense to me, and Luca being traded
from Dallas to the Lakers doesn't make sense to me.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Let's go to ESPN News for the report. Police.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
This is maybe the most stunning trade, definitely that I've
been a part of in recent NBA history, as far
as it was never clearly out there, and I'm told Luka, Doncic,
Anthony Davis, Lebron James, the players, coaches, a lot of
people on both sides with the Mavericks and Lakers had
no idea. I can assuredly tell you it's a fact,
(01:45):
Lebron James had no idea this was coming. Anthony Davis
had no idea this was coming until Luka Doncic is
still stunned about this trade. But when you look at
the totality of what just occurred, Luka Doncic is a
twenty five year old, Like you said, Megastar, you know
Perennial All NBA player, He's someone that you think of
(02:05):
as untouchable as a guy that's never gonna be traded.
I'm told that the Mavericks actually approached the Lakers and
offered Luka Dancic a few days ago in a trade
very recently. The Mavericks went out, they knew exactly who
they wanted. They wanted Anthony Davis. That's the player that
if they were ever gonna trade Luka Doncic, if this
was even a thought that was gonna cross their mind.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
It was four a d Just when I thought no
sports organization in Dallas could make worse decisions than my cowboys.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Here come the maths. Okay, Now, Dallas must know something
about Luca that we don't.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Reports are that Luca's weight went up to two hundred
and seventy pounds, So you mean to tell me that
Luca got traded because he gained too much weight.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
But Zion Van Dross is still a Pelican now, I
got nothing love, I got nothing but love for nine Williamson.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Okay, South Carolina all day, but nobody's weight has fluctuated
more since the Architect, never too much. So you're not
gonna make me believe that Luca got traded because of
his weight. When a generational player like Luca gains weight,
you don't trade him. You get him a trainer and
a nutrition.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Is simple. How do you go from thirty three.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
A game and an NBA Finals appearance last year to
twenty eight to eight and seven this year? So all
of a sudden, your team saying they don't want you
because you're fat. In fact, Migo Harrison said the reason
they made the trader was because they want to win
now and weren't thinking about ten years from now.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Listen, I think the long term is the time frame.
I think he fits our time frame. If you pair
him with Kyrie and the rest of the guys, he
fits right along with our time frame to win now
and win.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
In the future.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
And the future to me is three four years from now.
In the future ten years from now.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
I don't think they probably buried me in Jay Budden
or we bear ourselves.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yeh, think you might have buried yourself, Nicole. He went
to the NBA Finals last year. Okay, he's twenty five.
Give him and Kyrie some time to cooks around him
with more talent. Okay, how is the GM Are you
not thinking ten years down the road? This guy Luca
is going to be a superstar for a long long time.
Unless you know something we don't. Okay, Nico said the
(04:01):
contract was affected too. Let's listen.
Speaker 5 (04:04):
Yeah, I think it wasn't really like a point. I
think it was how do we make our team better?
You know, there's some unique things about his contract that
we had to pay attention to. You know, there's there's
other teams that were loading up.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
You know that he was going to have.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
He was gonna be able to decide to make his
own decision at some point of whether he wants to
be here or not, whether we want a super maxim
or not, or whether he wants to opt out. So
I think we had to take all that into consideration
and feel like we got out in front of what
could have been in tumultuous summer.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
So you're telling me, Djoki, you not going to get
a super Max when it's his time. Jason Tatum signed
a Supermax. Okay, you surround Luca with the right talent
so he doesn't want to leave. I don't know, man,
I think that this board to this story. Okay, who's
lady in the Mavericks organization? Did Luca knock off? All right?
Did you find out he's a serial killer in the Slovenia?
(04:56):
All right, somebody tell me something that makes sense, because
I refuse to believe basketball gods loved the Lakers this much.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Okay, maybe they do.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
I've been alive along a long time, long enough to
see the Lakers do this quite a few times. From
Kareem abdu Jabari Shaquille O'Neil to Paul Gasol, the Lebron James,
the trades that have been vetoed like Chris Paul, they
always tend to get one that makes you scratch your head,
like how they pull that off? And really, I would
like to know how did they pull that off? Okay, Nico,
(05:24):
you got a piece like Luca and you didn't even
think the shop it.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
You want us to buy that you are.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Thinking about winning a championship in the next three to
four years, but you didn't even put Luca on the
open market to see what other deals were available.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
I'm sure that there was better deals out there. Okay,
I'm telling you right now.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
If this don't work, Donald Trump is gonna use you, Nico,
as an example as to why DEI is ruining corporate America.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I've never seen anything like this.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
And now, because Luca has been traded, he is ineligible
for the three hundred and forty five million dollars super
Max contract that he was sure to sign. By the way,
I don't think that's fair because it's not performance based.
Can earn that money because of what he does on
the basketball court. He shouldn't have to leave hundreds of
millions of dollars on the table because executives made what
I believe to be a poor decision. But I only
(06:09):
feel as poor because I don't have all the information.
If it is because of his weight, then Luca needs
to sue for weight discrimination.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
If Big Dank can sue Lyft, then Big Dunk should
be able to sue the Masks.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
That's all I got. Please give General Manager Nico Harrison
the biggest. He all, I'm playing with Big Danky. What
you mean, that's for real? If Big Dan can sue
Lift for weight discrimination, how come Big Dunk can't sue
the mass.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Gotta be more to that state knocks.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Off somebody, girl or something in the organization.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Man.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
Oh, he was acting frustrated like he didn't want to resign,
so they figured they trade him before.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
He just opt out.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
It gotta be more to that situation a year from now,
right next year, I thought.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Right, gotta be more to that. Get rid of no
Luca Dauntas like that.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
And people always ask about the no trade clause.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
I think there's only ten NBA players with a no
trade clause ever in their contract. Uh, and just the number.
It was, David Robinson, John Stocked and Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan,
Kevin Garnett, Dirk Dwayne Wade, Lebron Carmelo and.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Bradley and Kevin still ended up getting traded. Who Kevin
got traded a few times.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Yeah, but he had to approve it. You get traded,
but you just got approve that.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
I just refuse to believe that they got rid of
Luca because he's like chocolate cupkicks and mill cream pots.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I just don't. I don't believe that. So you can
do that, you're gonna like you can go against them
if they tried.
Speaker 6 (07:39):
Because you could sign a new trade clause where you
won't get traded unless you have to approve the trade.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
So if you don't, you gotta leave. But they don't
get that.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Too too many plays, okay, wow, So it's just like
sleeve like.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
You want to you take this nigga.
Speaker 6 (07:52):
The fact that they come together and pick their own
teams and people like, well it's not fair.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Well, the coaches and management con trade him at any
any given point and they had to GotY.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
And the fact that hundreds of millions of dollars he's
gonna lose now because it's ineligible for the Supermaxicans he
got traded as if it's his faulty, his tub.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
That's right, all right, Well, thank you for that. Donkey Today.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Donkey of Today is sponsored by renowned personal injury attorney
Michael the Bull Lamb is soft. Don't be a donkey
when you need a fighter on your side. If you're
ever injured, go to Michael to Bull dot com. That's
Michael to bull dot com and when you mess with
the bull, you get the horns.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Wake that ass up in the morning. The Breakfast Club
Hee hot, bitch, it's time for Donkey of the Day.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
I'm a big boy. I could take it if he
feel I deserve it. Ain't no big deal.

I know Charlottegeae God gonna have funny say out of
his mouth.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
