2022-2023 Dallas Mavericks season thread: Luka's first MVP
The scoring ability is there.

I just don't see how any of the teammates will trust him at this point. Maybe a two-year break will do the trick, but the stench of the Reynas definitely needs to wear off before he comes back. This is incredibly petty.

Man...I was a big fan of Reyna's game (son and coach), but I don't see how you have them anywhere near the program after this. They are absolutely toxic.

It’s very strange we have heard zero reports about who is coaching us next cycle. The longer it goes, that can’t be good for Berhalter, right? Seems like if they were sticking with him they would have announced something by now.

I’m not saying he’s a good or bad player. He’s an expiring deal at this point. Not sure what type of value you’re going to get for that. Doesn’t make much sense to move him.

What could they even get for him?

So frustrating to see Bellingham have a breakout tournament and Gio got like 45 minutes total.

USA World Cup Match 4: Netherlands
We wore ourselves out due to both depth but also not properly subbing. Outside of Gio and Aaronson, would have actually preferred to see Scally and Yedlin get more time to spell our exhausted outside backs. But this also goes back to not winning against Wales. If you win that first game, you have a lot more options to rotate the squad in the following games. This has been an issue we've constantly dealt with. We have to give everything to make it out of the group and have nothing left in the tank.

A candidate I would love to coach us is the guy who just played us to perfection. Van Gaal would be amazing compared to Greg.- USA World Cup Match 4: Netherlands
Let’s go Ferriera!!!- USMNT 2022
I’m saying they are the closest example of a team that wasn’t among the favorites and made a deep run, though you could also add Croatia to that.- USMNT 2022
The latter. When is the last time someone snuck up and won a World Cup? Only team I can think of that came close to that is France in 2006.- USA World Cup Match 3: Iran
This favors us over the Dutch.- 2022-2023 Dallas Mavericks season thread: Luka's first MVP
It's almost like letting your 2nd best player walk for nothing is bad roster building... Then you combine that with a horrendous contract for McGee and you have what you have.- World Cup Day 6 - Wales/Iran, Qatar/Senegal, Netherlands/Equador
We were always going to need to win the Iran game after we didn’t beat Wales. Now Wales isn’t going to catch us if we keep the England game close and beat Iran.- World Cup Day 6 - Wales/Iran, Qatar/Senegal, Netherlands/Equador
Were people really hoping we were going to advance without a win? I love going into the 3rd game knowing a win gets us in. Hell, we can afford a 2 goal loss to England at this point.- USA World Cup Match 2: England
All things tactical aside, if we could just get some decent set pieces that would go a long way. It would be nice to steal a cheap one.- USMNT 2022
I’m not sure I agree re: Weah. At this point, you need your best players on the field, even if it’s for the 2nd half. I’d much rather have Gio on the field the Ferreira. Keeping Weah on the shoulder of their slow center backs is a matchup I like.- USMNT 2022
Listening to Jimmy Conrad’s podcast and they have aaronson in for Mckinnie. He would be in front of a dual 6 of Adams and Musah. Also have Weah at the 9 and Gio in his place on the wing. I think that’s spot on. Enough dedicated defenders but Musah can still dribble out to relieve pressure. Aaronson can press like he’s known for and you actually have a better chance to counter them.- USMNT 2022
Assuming we can keep the game close with England (not sure that should be an assumption at this point), the result of the Wales-Iran game is going to be the most crucial match. If Wales wins by more than a goal, I think we're going to have a major uphill battle on Tuesday. Essentially you could be down 3 points and 3 goals on goal differential.- USA World Cup Match 1: Wales
Said the same thing in real time. Didn’t understand what the upside was for trying to go through him there. He was going to have to dribble out or pass back.- USMNT 2022
You always want to play the hardest team last. It’s likely they will have clinched and will be rotating the squad. I wasn’t insinuating there’s going to be a handshake agreement. My point is I’d much rather have 4 points going into the last match than 1.- USMNT 2022
Do you remember the 2014 World Cup? We had the same exact scenario going into our 3rd game against Germany. It will be exactly the same in this case. England will win an ugly 1-0 and both will be happy with it.- USMNT 2022
I said going into this game that anything less than a win vs Wales means we are likely out. I would much rather be Wales right now than us. They are likely to play an England team in the 3rd match that is already through. Very disappointing 2nd half. I still think Mckinnie is not right and don’t think he should have started. I think aaronson was in much better form and would have been a better option for this matchup. Also don’t understand Jordan Fucking Morris over Gio. You put your best players on the field. Period. Maybe Gio was hurt? - USMNT 2023
