Become a DIEHARD! alldlls.com/diehard
Superstar guard Kyrie Irving is set to make his long-awaited return to action this fall for the Dallas Mavericks alongside Cooper Flagg. But outside of that star duo, the Mavs have some lingering questions to address on the roster. The DLLS Mavs crew discusses whether or not the team should ask Kyrie to do “too much,” by their own definition. Plus, our Ron Harrod Jr. caught up with Daniel Gafford over the weekend and discussed how he feels about the ongoing trade speculation. Finally, Marc Stein joins with the latest on Klay Thompson, Dwight Powell, and more, live on YouTube!

For mavs to win 50. Kyrie needs to average 18 a game. He can do that in his sleep
If you don’t think the Mavs want to win this year you’re crazy. Flagg has voiced how much he hates losing and we only have an elite Kyrie for a few more years. We need to maximize the players we have on the roster now.
Why do Miami think we supposed to eat 17mill to buyout Klay for them to have him wtf is wrong with these people ain't shit free In this world & if the Mavericks do do that they are idiots
The goal is to win. This isn't an opinion or being subjective but an objective fact that the Mavs focus right now is to win and develop their players with that winning mindset. Mavs lack of draft capital along with reforms on the salary cap and drafting is showing that a focus on winning through coaching is more important than ever before. Teams are being punished if they waste capital or make bad signings
My thing is if we have so low expectations for kyrie and not looking for him to make us win. Why not trade .him and get his money off the books. Am not high on kyrie at all sorry over hyped
Next season, I suppose Kyrie would play most games outside of some back to backs, but his minutes definitely need to be lowered. Push those minutes over to Coop and let the young kid get it in and Kyrie picks his spots a lot like how he did with Luka!
Y'all are forgetting a coop he wants to win . another bad season.he might be looking for the door. Considering the other rookies success majority were In playoffs last year.and he watching
As far as winning and losing, you want your team to win enough to keep fans interested and possibly make the playoffs. Even if you know that in the back of your head that they don’t have what it takes to make it all the way. You just always want to feel like, “so you say there’s a chance” 😂😂😂😂
MAX HASNT PROVEN ANYTHING
Guys, Derek Lively lost both of his parents before the age of 21. Then lost his all NBA running mate Luka, then got sabotaged by his own training staff (who had him running on a broken foot)…. In all honesty I think he could use all of our support now more than ever.
Kyrie doesn't need to play more than 24-26 minutes (including some at 2), rest going to Sergio and Sasser
100% agree with the whole convo about the medical staff – large amount of injuries happening.. and the fact that they were playing Kyrie wayyy to much..
The thing that makes it worse is we literally had the best in the business the dude that went to the Knicks what’s his name I forget – best medical guy in the nba 🤦♂️
RonKnowsSports❤🫡👌💪
The expectation for Kyrie is to play 100% effort when he’s out there, to be a great leader, and always have a winning attitude. Which he has always had in Dallas. Expectation for the coaches is to manage his minutes wisely
Such a deluisional pessimistic group of dudes. I can't wait until you guys are proven wrong. You guys don't know ball and are not only underestimating our new roster but our usual guys who have been to the finals and won chips.
You guys are underestimating the greatness of Coop and Kyrie. Those two are going to be unstoppable to guard together.
When the Mavs are good. Next year yall gone eat crow
You all are losing credibility, why are you geniuses so sure the Mavs will suck next year?? If Kyrie is 90%, an improved Cooper Flagg in year 2. Surrounded w a fighsty rookie. Then great shooting. You all don’t know what this team will look like. Duuuude we tanked last year!!! We weren’t as bad as our record.
Masai said Cooper Flag timeline yeah, but he also said the goal is to win! He didn’t say two years from now so let’s not assume.
We need a Patreon tier that lets me play Commander with Bobby. Bobby with the Gruul Landfall, bruh
I'm in agreement, we don't have a first nor do we have a second next year. Basketball is a sport and players want to win. For anyone to suggest losing on purpose with nothing to gain, is insane. A healthy Kyrie and ( fingers crossed ) Lively should improve these team
