New Orleans – It’s the Super Bowl Lix Week down in New Orleans and all eyes are focused on Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles Rematch in “Big Game.”
But not all the conversation is about football in Big Easy because of what just went down in the NBA: Luka Doncic was traded for Los Angeles Lakers.
A couple of NFL stars talked to Pakinomist Digital about the trade, which left them flabbergasted when Dalla’s Mavericks sent away their 25-year-old superstar guard.

“There is no trade in history that I feel like it really compares that type of trade,” said Green Bay Packers, who runs back Josh Jacobs. “A Top Three player in NBA, 25 years old, is in the mark of his career – it’s literally that the fanbase’s face – to be traded for peanuts basically? I don’t think there’s nothing comparable with that. “
Jacobs mentioned Cleveland Brown’s Star Edge Rusher Myles Garrett formally with a request for a trade and how it will be interesting to see that game. But it will only “rue some feathers” in the eyes of Jacobs.

The Doncic trade did much more than for the sports world, so much less NBA.
Even some players who do not see basketball regularly could not see that Mavericks move on from their franchise. Free agent recipient Braxton Berrios even thinks that something must have gone down behind closed doors because of how barely up it was for the public.

“When it came up, my friend had my phone and he’s going, ‘you’ll never believe what just happened.’ I was like ‘what?’ Luka had just been traded, ”Berrios remembered. “I think it’s crazy there should be a back story there that we don’t know because you don’t deal with the cornerstone of your franchise. Obviously, the season tickets are now and they offer refund and credits. It’s a bad appointment.
Is there even a comparison with the Doncic trade within the NFL? Atlanta Falcons Quarterback Michael Penix Jr. Said that some football fans would not understand that he is happening to prove his point about how “crazy” the trade was.
“It’s like shopping lamar [Jackson]It’s dealing with Pat [Mahomes]. It’s crazy, ”said Penix and laughed.
Some thought the trade wasn’t even real when it went down, but it was official where Dallas got all-star center Anthony Davis, Reserve Guard Max Christie and a first round in 2029 in return.

Mavericks believes this step despite how shocking it was will help them now and into the future. Meanwhile, Lakers has a new dynamic duo with LeBron James and Doncic, a couple that no one thought would share a court together than in an all-star game.
