Looked pretty decent out there. A somewhat significant, if not pretty significant, loss for the Mavs.

    instantly the best and most important player on the team can’t wait for him to ball out all year and make this subreddit eat shit

  2. WorldWideWes2

    I know mavs fans sick losing him for nothing

  3. Alive-Ad-4164

    The Knicks bout to be surprise some people this season

  4. DosSamtos

    I think he looked great. Obviously preseason against a young squad but I’m optimistic.

  5. RJBarrettsBurner

    Had RJ and Randle eating too. Him and RJ together looked fantastic

    >loss for the Mavs

    I get both sides tho. they made a move to get Dinwiddie who needs the ball in his hands to have an effect, getting THJ back is like another FA signing and Christian Wood likes to create his own offense. As good as JB is, they had to alleviate the rotational pressure.

  7. jacob376

    Flailing around like a fish out of water anytime he got touched lmao

    Downvoted? Can y’all see? Lll

  8. killbill469

    Fuck Mark Cuban for being a cheapass owner. The man pretends to be Joe Lacob when he’s actually far closer to Sarver.

  9. Technical_Towel_990

    The Knicks made the right move not trading for Mitchell, even though he’s great.

  10. yodeadasss

    He’s absolutely gonna carry their offence this year, head & shoulders the best player

  11. pinatabyfreddiegibbs

    We are going to start a dialogue on the challenge of playing next to a historically ball dominant player. Mavs fans never truly appreciated how he was able to fit in next to Luka and thrive next to him. They will learn.

  12. AbbreviationsHot4482

    Wow it’s almost like Brunson is actually good who knew!!!??? lol people love downplaying Lukas supporting cast so that they can dickride him when in reality he has decent team around him.

  13. NoWayNotThisAgain

    That’s what he’ll give you. He was 16/5 last season, and it was by far his best season. The lowdown on him in high school was that he’s an undersized guard who can find his own shot and struggles with playmaking. He’s still that today.

  14. newbmycologist

    Glad I was able to scoop him late in a bunch of lgs

  15. Goatlikejordan

    He’s gonna have a lot of responsibilities on this team. He’ll prob have borderline all star numbers

  16. dallas gonna miss him. first 40 games with him luka and tim was going to be really good once luka healed up and became healthy. shame we never got to see them at their best last year since luka tim getting hurt or being fat

  17. JordanKneePoole

    4/$104 will look like a steal two months into the season. Brunson is a legit player. This sub went too far on Brunson Burner slander.

  18. Eddaughter

    No more Payton and Alec Burks as our PG. I’m crying tears of joy 😭

  19. Everyone’s expecting mavs to take a step back but I really don’t see it. JB got his money and good for him but dinwiddie has proven himself as a capable ball handler next to Luka if you watched the end of the regular season and past the first round. Also we addressed major areas of weakness at the big spots. We’ll be good again

  20. archangelzero2222

    He wi be fine in the league no one said he is a bust but let’s chill. Seen plenty preseason games where everyone wants to crown the next MVP or champs. He won’t give you 16 in 18 minute averages against starters but that doesn’t he mean he sucks

  21. hejendo76

    u guys need to get with the program. #1 seed is ours

  22. HotdogIsaSandwitch

    Everything looked real comfortable for him out there today.

  23. Cheeseish

    You know, seeing the extensions Herro and Poole got, his contract really isn’t that bad

  24. embiid0for11w0pts

    I hope he continues his trajectory. Efficient, reliable guy with such a calm demeanor. No one can dislike the man

  25. Bladex20

    He looked amazing out there. He is exactly what the Knicks needed

  26. dragonwhale

    The Mavs sub has been super delusional about the Brunson loss. He was our mini-Luka.

  27. Type-Alpha

    I dont want to overreact or anything, but I think the knicks are gonna win the finals

  28. It’s funny how fast the dialogue surrounding us went from “luka has no help he’s playing with milkmen and bums out there, mavs can’t get luka any help” to “the mavs just lost the second coming of steve nash” lol

  29. Low-Exam1208

    From the highlights RJ was making jumpshots clap clap

  30. joshwaynebobbit

    Jalen is going to be great. The vibes are immaculate
