    NICO REALLY DESTROYED THIS FRANCHISED BURNED THE CITY DOWN
    NOW THE MAVS CAN NEVER WIN A GAME AGAIN

  3. @SingleTrackMined

    No sense having a point guard if you don't have an offense. I have seen no semblance of an offensive game plan beyond rolling the ball out and saying, "Go get 'em, boys". There's no movement, no intention, no confidence, no planning 3 or 4 steps ahead, just random offense like playing pickup at the Y. Get some sets and let a point guard run them. Or something. Sheesh

  4. @DrJack-xn1rn

    Glad you're realizing this. Not a good look from the Mavs organization. Playing Flagg darn near 40 minutes a game at this point. Telling him to go out there and stat pad and teams are letting him do it. His injuries were bound to start happening and piling up the way they're using him so he can continue to rake up meaningless stats to win the ROY. Sad stuff.

  5. @bjayscrib6885

    Only concern is everyone who is currently starting except for Christie needs to come off the bench once they get kyrie back Flagg is going to be able to get his shot attempts and rhythm. Naji doesn’t pass Caleb doesn’t pass and pj definitely doesn’t pass who didn’t start but I don’t like when he’s in the lineup with Flagg

  6. @SinaSoh

    I like Bagley but I have a feeling he is not a Jason Kidd kind of guy and he will get the Javale and Christian Wood treatment. I see healthy DNPs. I hope I’m wrong.

  9. @shanes481

    During that second quarter run Kidd never took a timeout to stop the momentum. Seems intentional. The tank is on.

  11. @jmsjolly05

    Hahahaha. We're tanking. This is what yall wanted and now yall are concerned with bad basketball. Unreal

  14. @andrejgregoric1324

    oh boy… getting crushed by San Antonio is a real blow…. wait… are there even better teams in a league than Spurs? Spurs are top title contender. Mavs not really. Coop can have a break or bad game…

  15. @MC-ej4to

    I've spent the entire year defending Jason Kidd because he's been a decent coach. However I am literally tired of watching Cooper Flagg stand in the right or left corner of the basketball court every freaking game. He should never stand at all and they need to do more horn sets back cuts and motion to get him open. If he's not touching the ball at least 90% of the possessions there needs to be a timeout and you need to sit the players that don't let him touch the ball. This cannot happen. I don't give a damn if he shoots 30 times a game right now, and I don't give a damn about Marvin Bagley or Jones or any of them. Also when we went on a run in the second Jones was running point guard. He took him out and then the Spurs immediately blitzed the Mavericks… No I don't care because we need to lose games, but if that doesn't show you something about our point guard position I don't know what the hell does

    Slightly Biased is a fraud name change that to Fully Biased and now you being for real. Anyway, a lot of teams have lottery luck. You still have to pick the right players. For example, three teams passed on Castle. I guess picking up the undrafted Champagnie, stealing Fox/Barnes from Sacramento and then signing Luke Kornet were lottery luck too. GSG!

  20. @byrondsanders8122

    Slightly sitting in front of his Luka shrine. Don’t worry I will make this franchise pay for what they did to you and I will get you Gafford in the process. Project salary dump is working swimmingly. Sorry you got caught up in that by the way. I gave myself 77 lashes across to back to make up for it.

  22. @ryanweiss8468

    I’m sure Cooper was tired for carrying team on his back for past month. He had on off game. They will overhaul this roster this offseason.
