  2. Not sold on him and his ego. Deep reservations and the lack of support for Kidd is a not a good look. I expect he will remove the coach who has been a major factor in Coop’s development, because he needs to put his stamp on the team.

  12. I remember being the only one not sucking up too….
    The Nico Craze.

    Let him cook was even less realistic than the hardy party and the omax shuffle.

    Anyone should have known that Cuban didn’t hire anyone to make on court or big off court decisions (since he and big Nellie broke up) plus shoes had no qualifications and that he couldn’t give out shoe contracts once he was gm anyway.

    I can give a link to the day before the Luka trade where I was telling everyone they were being duped. And that was at the peak of Nico is tha man bs.

    Mesai had a great track record in the teens and bad in the first half the 20s. Hopefully we get the teens Mesai. And he definitely should get full control until he’s made enough moves to judge him on them.

    But that means we are in a…lock down wait and see that should take at least 3 years.

    Good luck to the mavs. We got Flagg but even that is far from enough.

    I’ll remind everyone again. Even with the Great Dirk. If the mavs don’t get super lucky and get Tyson chandler cheap cause he failed a physical. We never win the big one.

    And Dirk is looked at one of the superstars that couldn’t get them over the hump.

    And yes after 2 decades. It’s
    Not a success If there is no chip.

    Again go mavs. But whatever happens. Reality will win in the end.

  13. Reminds be when little Nellie was onto another superstar talent no one knew about and he went and moved next door to gianiss in Europe for a summer to get to know him as a person.

    Told cubes he would be generational and cubes basically laughed at him.

    He smartly went into cubes offfice with the exact same I bet my job this guy is gonna be generational and because Dirk the golden goose that Nellie helped them get was about to retire. If this whole situation didn’t happen I think cubes stays and picks mobamba who was said to be the one cubes always looking at.

  18. Dallas Mavericks fans are sooooo lucky to have @NickAngstadt that he leads @LockedOnMavericks … i dont need to wait for him to be gone before I show my appreciation to a great talent and even greater human being… thank you Nick Van Exit!!!

  19. HELL 🔥 CAN NEVER SAVE DALLAS. Don't look for a Savior. JESUS IS GOD. Jesus is the Only Savior. Masai Ujiri is like the Antichrist Figure. A Fake Savior. Jesus Loves you Forever 4 Eternity

  20. As long as he doesn't start trading for old broken down guys. I don't want to be a fan of a team hoping they can stay healthy log enough to be mediocre every year
