1st!
Trade ad and Irving .hardy now
Cooper, Max, Naji, and 2026 pick will be a nice core moving forward.
Irving … yh no. Ad maybe. ..but we need Irving’s scoring now that max and cooper are coming through
That first half was some great basketball. Much needed energy win. Too bad for the knick’s this win had messed them up 😂. Fans booing Mavs style
Mousa Cisse plays with so much energy man. I hope he keeps developing because he looks like a really good center option right now
Daily reminder that these guys were trying to trade Max for a mid first this year 😂 genuinely one of the more laughable takes I've heard in a while. They're talking like max isn't 22 (turning 23 a week or two from now) please stop talking like these guys are just fodders and everyone in these years draft, especially the mid tier first rounders would be better than Max. Naji has been really good as well and Naji is just 27 he can be your vet for years to come for cheap (unless he demands a bigger extension which won't kick in until next year) Dallas can't be bad next gear, trading assets especially valuable ones for a cheap first rounder god knows how they're gonna look like in the NBA is just ridiculous 😂 the one year this team tank was also the year we drafted Wallace who we then traded for Lively and how's that looking LOL not every first rounder in the NBA not in the top 1-7 at least would be a guaranteed success
Shoot out to Dwight Powell and surviving a kun-fu fight against Kat
I thought we were tanking lol
The dukies is crazy 😂
Slightly is depressed
Max is a bucket. I see a 17-19ppg average next year. Hes the new go to for threes as relief for them. I’d like to see him shoot 8-10 definitely per game
Fing up our draft spot lol
So this is what a winning streak feels like huh? It's been a while.
Trade Gaff and PJ. They don’t work without Luka. PJ is worse at the same position Coop plays
We have to keep Naji, he’s young, versatile and effective
I feel like everytime Powell is on the floor the team has been positive
You are underestimating Max Christie. He is the player you want long term next to Flagg, not Klay or whatever.
True or false: Max Christie is currently a top 10 sg in the league

What's 1 reason the Mavs beat the Knicks?
Mavs need to wisen up & build around Flagg. I love Kai & the boys but with Luka gone they’re pointless. Trade Kai Klay PJ Gaff & AD for pieces to build around Flagg, Naji, Max, Lively & the 2026 pick.
If the mavs are smart they can build a younger better core than the Thunder.
I know Cuban is pushing for Naji but he doesn’t know bball anyway. The MIP player on this team is clearly Max Christie!
Yall make great videos but glad yall aren't GM's of the Mavs because trading Cristie right now seems asinine. So much crying about a bad trade from so many that endorse trades that are just as bad.
In a casual fanbase, we’re going to highlight the offensive output. The unsung hero in this game was their defense. They forced the Knicks to take contested shots & they capitalized on the other end.
Max has been playing always like that..very consistent, but everyone focused so much on flagg and forgot about him. When flagg was out they realized mavericks had a great player on max.
Max christie might be better than Luka.
That Max for Pelicans pick question is crazy.
You would trade every player on the roster combined (besides Cooper, obviously) for that Pelicans pick
Max Christie gonna be our SGA 😈 add coop + that LA pick that’ll be juicy
Nick on Ads now🎉🎉
if kidd has wisdom, he will all in Max insted of using him like a replaceble player
Shout out to TGK. My favorite Mavericks podcaster.
Knicks are hurting themselves for a while…trades coming in NY
