A+++++ and oh poor Dirk….you know he was sitting watching this draft and thinking to himself, maybe even out loud…WHERE WAS NICO DURING MY PLAYING DAYS??????????? Could possibly be one of the top 5 best Mavs drafts ever if everything pans out like we all hope it should.
Was a great draft night, so freakin excited for next season
Luka, lively,Josh,Hardy and could be a lineup we see this Season, when was the last Time an all mavs drafted lineup was on the floor
The nightmares can stop for now
Nico and Dennis indeed cooked.
Holmes is better than all our C's from last year. He can play 20 minutes. Lively will not be pushed into a position where he needs to be Jesus in the paint straight away and can develop. Whether we keep Powell and Javale it is to be seen.
Omax (I will trust Isaac) will get minutes in the rotation.
We just need couple of pieces via a trade, MLE and we'll be alright
Raccoon Squad, was this draft Lively enough for you?
Gotta love that they went in with a solid plan and executed it. Maybe one or even both of the players end up being meh but still such a great sign for the future. Keep doing sound, logical moves and over the next 5 years we're going to build a very solid team
Good.
If you take the FL in MFFL serious you just have to love this draft-outcome! Can't wait to see these guys play and develop especially since both of them seem to have formed great personalities. Let's go Mavs! š„š„š„
LETS GO
Anything
Holmes is a good get. Id rather have him and his contract than John Collins
In. Nico. We. Trust.
Cuban gotta be paying for bots in the comments. The unjustified optimism is ridiculous. This draft went about how we all though it would considering the mess Nico put this team in. mavs got a fringe starter in Holmes and unproven draft picks. Cool, mavs might make the play in this time š
Nico ā¤ā¤
Its Live-Prosper yeah šš
Nico "Rockstar" Harrison
Great job Nico. I'm pleased too.
We have a lot of centres now, does this mean we arenāt going to get boban in free agency š¢
Great jobs by the GM squad !!!š„ Letās go MAVS!!!
Okay Okay I can digg what the mavs are doing I see you Nico. Finally there's a method to the madness instead of madness being the method which has been the motto ever since the champion season. How fitting the year that wasn't the case is when we traded for Tyson chandler, forward so many years later and we acquire someone who main comp is that of Tyson the man Chandler and the world is right again and the mavs are dare I say it making sense again.
In Nico we trustššš
Good job Mavs
I don't get the hype and "over" optimism. I mean, you have Luka and Kyrie (we hope). How is this going to help you to go further in the league next season?? Again the same starting 5?? These guys could be good additions… in the future. We don't even know if they will be suitable for the league. Everyone acting like this a jackpot. Where are the trades that can give Luka real grounded, sounded players to compete for a championship???!!! It is every year the same. I hope I am wrong. With this team right now play offs at max and no way competing for a ring. Powel again at starting 5…š¤¦āā
Dallas needs to trade McGee and THJ to get a player that is useful. Time for Dwight Powell to leave.
Although I'm more a fan of Doncic than the Mavs.* And I feel strongly that Luca'd be better served by a more competent franchise. Given the totality of the circumstances, the Mavs maneuvered pretty damn good. Now Kyrie.
*Cowboys since 66.
I wasn't a big believer in the FO but man they delivered today. There is hope! š
A third ball handler? Not to say we can't add another ball handler, but I'm hoping that Jaden Hardy is capable of being our third ball handler.
Wanted to comment early just to say I think people are sleeping on Richaun Holmes. A few seasons ago we were talking about wishing the Mavs would trade for him. Over 3 seasons with the Kings (before Sabonis) the dude was averaging about 12.5 points, 8 rebounds, & 1.5 blocks per game on 27 minutes. He was a solid defender & roll man. He's 29 and has years left in the tank. It's a contract year for him (if he opts out of his player option.) He will step into a bigger, more appreciated role with the Mavs. I think he's going to be a significant rotation piece for us.
this route gives hope that the Mavs can contend in 2-3years
One more. This is the first draft since Luca and Brunson where it feels like a cohesive thought process.
Forgot to mention Finley killing it, he is VERY involved.
was so scared they were going to take another quard at 12 was so relieved it was lively if he hits we have our players to build around for 10 years
I love what the Mavs Did they hit 2 birds with one stone.
Mavs, let's go….still we need to trade for Grant Williams. We are a winner today!
