I still can’t believe it

It has honestly hit me almost as much as when Kobe passed. Before the trade, I had watched almost every Mavs game since 2010. I moved overseas in 2023 and still managed to watch during work breaks, and even had the live scores on my Apple Watch. I haven’t watched a single game since the AD debut/injury. My friend group hasn’t talked basketball in a month. I don’t know when game days are anymore. I’m exploring new hobbies. My personal life is going well. Yet, there’s at least one moment every day where I suddenly think of Luka and the hurt and anger comes back. This team was such a huge part of my life. I think it’s gonna take years for me to get over this.
