What's the first change the Mavs need to make?
The Mavericks need to lose to get a good draft pick and trade away their old injured players. This podcazt is more fun than watching the team
Or trade everyone, bring in a bunch of rodeo clowns and become a comedy team who bring joy and laughs to kids everywhere
Trade lively hardy caleb
Waive exum in January
Don’t care if y’all defend lively he doesn’t play always out and this being a rebound game he was really needed and caleb doesn’t do anything
Also this will always be a coach problem
Didnt know issac was smaller than you mr locked on!
Kyrie for FVV, Tari and a first 🤝🏽
You guys are so young. You live and die with every game. You need to relax and look at the season as a process to something else. Because Nico gutted this squad, the immediate future is bleak. Accept it and focus on the future. You're not gonna survive this way..
They need to trade everyone. Just keep Flagg and Lively.
Flaggs skills just isnt star potential. Atp his ball handling sucks, mid playmaking and is low physicality/motor. These are skills that cant be developed significant enough at his age now. Hes literally like Ayton, an overhyped bust.
Another game
Another loss
Are 21 wins possible?
How about Klay for Kuminga?
I've already been waiting for trades since they finally fired Nico. Might be hard to pull off though because other teams won't want to rush trades as much. Need to get the new GM situation settled
The roster need work. won't happen without a GM! Not only he need to know how find talent build around Flagg, also know how to navigate our Cap mass next few years with out draft assets. F Nico
Dumont better fill that GM void way before the trading dead line!! almost two weeks, not a news that the team is even looking for a GM
dallas aint need to change anything. Keep this current roster, take these Ls, and try to get a high pick next season. Trade AD for as many picks as possible. I am a Kyrie stan so i want him to stay, but at the end of the day let that man go get another championship.
I mean this just cant stay healthy
As much as i want for any trade to be done, i rather they wait for the new GM to come and let him sort it out
Good morning Isaac.
All self inflicted…what a damn shame.
Klay can help a contender.
😂 Klay
Pooper Clogged so overrated. The media is just hyping him up. When he dunk or layup, the media and Dallas announcers treat him like he's amazing with that shot like an MVP caliber 🤣🤣🤣
Dear Fans, no GM is giving up picks for AD. Stop the delusional thinking.
These injuries are getting on my damn nerves. Players need to practice more and pumping up the iron. Lively needs to play more and quit being a sissy even you gotta drag with one leg 🦵🏽.
Flagrant 2 is Unnecessary AND excessive. Still should've been a flagrant 2, but the definition is different than you said.
Why Cooper at the Pg?…just didn't look right tonight
This team sucks so hard, 5-13 with the 2nd easiest schedule in the league so far, wouldn't be surprised if they won fewer than 20 games.
Nico forced the Mavs into rebuild mode…lol
No point to the Luka trade…
Free Klay Thompson
