  1. The mavs make another run to the finals. AD gets hurt and Flagg subs in as the center, leading the team to victory in 6 games. He wins the first rookie finals MVP since magic johnson. At 35 he becomes president, leading the United States into a new dark age of feudalism. The populous burns him as a witch.

  2. Again AD wasn't even trying against the Hornets. If you want to see more effort, watch his recent preseason games. So stop using that game as an example for the season. That's bad reporting.
    They did extend Gafford, but they made it to where he was trade-eligible now. So they can always make a trade. If they need to
    I like Nerd Sesh's optimisticism, if healthy.

  3. Can't wait for Dallas to prove all these haters wrong. Kidd knows what he's doing and he knows how to use the preseason. Everyone judging Dallas on these preseason games are ignorant. Dallas will shine when both teams benches have to play. We basically have 2 starting lineups. Our "bench" might be our strongest asset

  4. Their best line up is ryan nembhard (he is key to run offense, automatic! And then everyone can focus on defense), Flagg, PJ, AD, Lively/Gaff

  5. Dallas will be good enough to make the play in at minimum and then they can hopefully have Kyrie back which will make them a really good team.

  6. Did yall see it in greek freak ball handling and play making right but the true professional Jason kid his eyes has not failed him yet from talent to passing is trust jaykid o very these three kids opinion 🤔 respectfully

  7. Last season the Orlando Magic finished 6th defensive rating and 25th offensive rating but still managed to get 47 wins 5th seed. There is not way y'all think that the Mavs will gonna be higher offensively and defensively than the Magic but predicting them to end up in the play-ins? Y'all hate on the Mavs are showing ngl

  8. The mavs haven’t had enough time to gel. They’re one of few teams that even tho they’re being bac 90% of the roster, they’re implementing entirely new both offense and defense. Not to mention that Ad is out of shape, lively is just getting bac from injury and is on a minutes restriction. Their big are athletic enough to be that wall when the defense breaks down . I ironically, this is one of the reasons I was adamantly against trading Grimes and why I was hoping DSJ made it to the roster, then the POA would be secured. If we had grimes we point even have the “worry” most have about the guard play until Kai returns. Grimes would’ve been perfect to run the offense, Knoc down shooter , and loc down defender. Trading him for Martin was silly to me, especially after losing DJJ. But I think this defense will clic by December and be rolling. As long as DLo is healthy then the offense will be fine and if exum can find a way to be healthy this year then the I believe most of our boxes are checced, enough to make a run at least. Combining exum and DLo ensures that we have all the high iq plays needed to run this offense, both can get whatever shot we need , and with exum we have our POA defender. He was really good at that both with Djj on the roster and after him. He’d be perfect for that this year he’s just so damn unreliable . If exum had been playable in that finals run we would’ve been much more equipped. And after that it seemed like he came bac with a vengeance , but since then he hasn’t been able to be healthy EVER

  9. The Spur's have Wemby in his 3rd lets-make-a-leap year. He is already 4th in the MVP race and will eventually enter the all time DPOY and GOAT conversation. They have rookie Harper who will "fascinate" on a level comparable to Flagg and last year's ROY in Castle. While AD obviously has had too many burgers and pizzas, Wemby has been building a bully-resistant muscled body, running half-naked through the back-streets of China after he stretched out his height 2 more inches to 7' 7'. He's trained with Olajuwon and Garnet to bolster his post footwork. He can't wait to prey on AD on opening night.

  10. Essentially this Mavs team is two starting rotations for the NBA: starting line up and bench are great. They are depth with variety of abilities. Even last season, the Mavs made noise with Irving and then with AD (with many other injuries). Now they got Cooper Flagg and his excellent potential. And some commentators are still saying that the Mavs will barely win games?

  11. Dallas is overrated right now, but I like it and it can go one of two ways. Either Dallas over preforms and is a top 6 team in the West, or they finish somewhere from 7th-12th in the West and Nico gets fired!
    It’s a Win/Win either way!

  12. AD is a vet. He doesn't care about the pre season. He uses it just to get reps in and get ready. Lively is going to have break out season.

  13. What is the guy in the middle talking about when he said Dallas' offense is limited. Even with Kyrie out. They are just as deep as OKC. They are arguably better defensively than OKC. Plus they just signed another 6'11 rebounder who can catch lobs. So that's 4 6'11-7'1 defensive beasts. Who's gonna guard Klay if Cooper is ball dominant. PJ Washington coming off the bench. Naji Marshall is a threat on both sides. I think people who know basketball see the Mavericks as a top 5 team in the league without Kyrie. Russell is capable of making plays and Cooper will also be running downhill on small guards. They are too big and have plenty of offensive fire power. LeBron took an underwhelming lineup to the finals early in his career. Coop has 3 hall of famers and the deepest bench in the league 2 play w.
