In this case, it was Houston Rockets governor Tilman Fertitta trolling the Dallas Mavericks for the "dumbass" decision to deal their superstar point guard to the Los Angeles Lakers during a recent visit to the White House. The comment came when Fertitta was speaking to the Houston Cougars men's basketball team at their championship celebration.

Luka Doncic being a Los Angeles Laker remains the talk of the NBA over two months later, as people can't believe that the Dallas Mavericks would be dumb enough to trade a then 25-year-old five-time All-NBA selection for a minimal return.

Dallas Mavericks radio announcer Chuck Cooperstein deleted a blistering social media post Friday night in which he slammed the team’s controversial trade of Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. Cooperstein's criticism was later deleted, but it was one of many scathing opinions that have followed since the trade occurred in February.
