What's up boys! We need the Mavs to start losing so we can actually capitalize on this one and only pick. I love their fight, and heart, and the depth we have, but we can't screw this up. I know the players don't tank, but we need to make some trades to ensure we tank…
Until the Lakers get rid of LeBron, they won't contend for a title. The MSM shows you the LeBron highlight, but they won't show you the 6 missed shots and 4 turnovers he had before it. That is what happened against the Clippers. Luka also still has to defer to LeBron, which is frustrating. Luka averages in the first half what most stars average for a game. He is doing something that hasn't been done since 1996 this year. For the Mavericks, it is all about Cooper. I kind of wish there was a world where Luka and Cooper were on the same team. Now, that would be must-see TV.
This was an F trade for the Mavs. The 1.8 percent chance the Mavs overcame to get Flagg and Pelinkas ineptitude to build a contender around Luka prevent this move from being a death blow for the Mavs. It was a death blow for Nico though and it might still be a death blow if the Lakers can win a title with Luka or if (god forbid) Flagg suffers a horrible injury or regresses big time.
I agree with Legs, the Dallas need to play a fast paced game in order to beat the Lakers. I remember their last game against the Lakers, they were playing a fast paced game in 2nd quarter (irc) which they were cutting the deficit.
Lost interest in this team after the Luka trade. I will watch a Tim legs video however!
AD going down has opened up an opportunity for Naji and Max. AD demands the ball quite a bit and bogs the offense down a little, but now these guys are high-paced, attacking downhill, and getting up more threes. The front office has to figure out how they want this team to play and what direction to go in.
Listen, even if Luca Dončić doesn’t win a championship or an MVP he’s still a high caliber player that the Maverick should’ve never ever gotten rid of
Mavs can beat them
Mavs will win vs Lakers
