Damn! That's cold.
Yet some fans cry when players ask for a trade!
It is awful look for the Mavs, especially considering Barnes is a class act. Great dude
That being said, I think the trade was leaked during game but didn't happen at that time.
Mavs & Kings probably knew before the games -Kings playing today too- and wanted to announce it afterwards but someone leaked it.
Coach talked about after the game and didn't look happy at all, was disappointed that someone else told Barnes and was oerly apologizing during post game press conference
OTOH Barnes is joining the better team, who have great future too. He shouldn't be too sad about it
