Who is most responsible for the Mavs Curse?
The Mavs are not cursed. Why even put that out there? That’s some bad energy that you’re projecting and that’s not good with all the injuries. We are out there still playing hard every night. Let’s continue to support the guys that’s out there giving it their all. We will be back next year, trust and believe fully healthy.
it's a nico curse
I'm mean at this point kidd's "no one's dying" isn't really true if you're talking about fanbase and injuries
Fire Nico chants at the Dallas Arboretum
Maybe this was the “team culture” Nico was talking about during his press conference with Kidd?
Stopped watching the games but I can keep up with the news with LOCKED ON MAVS
Big loss today. Was a must lose. Just need the Suns to win two more games. On a side note, Fading the Mavs has been free money. Only way to make myself feel better about my stolen team.
“Dallas is going to get a seat at the table”… I hope Nico stubs his toe everyday for the rest of his life…
I got good news in terms of basketball for all local DFW college hoop fans. UNT is doing really well. Go Mean Green
I don't think the Mavs have a top notch medical support group…or post injury therapists on staff! They lost the good ones by firing Casey!
Nico deserves this! What kinda allegiance! And nexus is this between Nico! Dumont! & Kidd! Weird one though! Seems like they don't care about their fan base! Maybe Dumont thinks he has already invested a lot by paying Cuban..$3 bil…so the ownership didn't wanna pay Luka the max extension and didn't wanna offer Grimes a contract! Really sad….Loyalty just faded away…lol..
Wouldn't be surprised if they trade Kai away too…with that lunatic Nico in there…the guy should be booed out there!
Hope we give Luka a grand ovation as a Thank you! When he comes here…really sad how he was booted outta here..
Dont trust Cuban! Either…he's a whacko business man too…he was responsible for trading Nash and dismantling a championship team and finally he currently believes that its fine Luka was traded and only that we didnt get enough back…he is focussed on what we didnt get back rather than highlighting the mistake of trading a generational star! The mavs just showed they are cheapskates! By not giving Luka the super max contract for all he sacrificed and achieved for this franchise!
this is a total trainwreck and I I'm actually rooting for my local team to lose over and over until they sell………….
Mavs had a good GM in Donnie Nelson Jr. (he got Luka and Brunson in the same draft, for example) and Cuban fired him — and installed Nico Harrison.
The coffee shop that nico and rob discussed the trade was built over a native american burial ground. The mavs are now cursed.
Is it sad that I used to watch the games and now I don't but I just know we lost
Those guys need some milk for their bones😂
Get a top 10 pick, make a huge win now trade and try again next year.
It’s a long shot but it’s all we have to hope for. It’s still a talented team.
Just MUCH OLDER and with lousy prospects for the future.
Slightly Biased is Micheal Dukakis! 😂😂😂
Now you guys understand why no matter how horrible it was, Mavs fans felt the need to boo Krause’s memory in front of his widow.
Did Naji not get the letter that they are tanking?
So what will the Vegas team be called? I'm thinking either the Las Vegas Jokers or the Vegas Dice
We are officially about to become the Hornets of the Western Conference
Time to get rid of Nico Kidd Finley they all were in on the Luka trade and Cuban 100% knew too. We’ve seen him run his mouth off non stop for 25 years then in the biggest trade in NBA history he plays dumb and innocent.
There is no curse. There are no injuries. There was no trade. This podcast never happened. I realize none of this is real, but I am commenting regardless because I need to pass the time somehow
I just realized that I have already died. The catholics were right and purgatory exists. Not sure how much longer I deserve to be here, hopefully before I am made to live through a Luka 3-peat w LAL
Cuban knew it was time to sell so he cashed in big!!! Smart move since the nba is loosing fans. He didn't know the casino owners were not here for basketball
I said it when the trade happened. Trading Luka is this centuries equivalent of trading Babe Ruth. Curse of the Bambino part 2. Curse of the Don maybe? I'm sure someone will name it eventually.
I just got done scrolling through the Mavs Facebook page and WOW! This clown 🤡 of an organization scrubbed ALL mention of Luka! They deleted ALL 2024 posts and videos of the playoff run. The disrespect is and lack of professionalism is disgraceful.
I got tickets to the spurs game tomorrow as a Christmas present for me and my lady back in December. Guess we'll go cheer for Max Christie 🤷🏽
people must forget that after we won in 2011, MARK CUBAN DIDNT PAY ANYONE AND LET EVERY FREE AGENT WALK
locked on "Mavs"
Mavs got sold out. Luka was the new star. The NBA wanted him in LA.
How did it come to this
Do what u have to do to bring back Moses Brown!! 💯
Waive Powell and sign Moses Brown
Waive Powell and sign Moses Brown
Waive Powell and sign Moses Brown
Soo.. acl happened not because of the minutes play loaded.
Explain nicely how 7 players down one by one?
Mark should have chose a better GM before leaving…trusting Nico Was not the right move!
I give Mark Cuban 50% of the blame. If you sell, at least sell to the right person.
Wait is Nick saying that Cuban was also not willing to pay Luka the Supermax? He says that even before selling the team that they weren’t planning on giving Luka the supermax. Why?
Copper flagg!!!!
INTERESTING!
Luka got injured on Christmas and for the first time in 6 and a half years of playing for Dallas he was absent for a long time due to injury, and they considered him a LAWYER – NO WORK ETHIC, NO CONDITION, TOO FAT,…etc.
ONLY 1 month has passed since Luka was traded to LA, and Dallas hardly has a healthy player on the floor anymore?
INTERESTING that Luka lasted 6 and a half years.
It doesn’t make any sense. I bet Cuban is lying in order to minimize any responsibility for selling the majority of his shares and also selling those shares to a group of people who don’t give a fuck about the actual team and their fan base.
Seems like Kim Jong Un is running the show now
