People are gonna realize how important Powell is now that he's gonna be out.

Shitty way to show the haters. That looked awful. See you next January Dwight.

It’s fine guys, JJ in for Dwight.

That JJ dime to KP!

So are the clippers good defensively because they don’t get called for fouls, or do they not get called for fouls because they are good at defense?

Harrell is killing us. So is this crew though, Jfc.

Boban!!! Fucking please stop the offense rebounds. Refs can blow me

Boban > Harrell

Garbage officiating down the stretch:

- Easy charge called a block
- Missed call on push in the back
- Missed carry by Kawai

Fuck the zebras let’s go!

Agreed.  Really sucks.

so fucking pissed.  I know he is not his replacement but KP is going to need to step up his game.

I want no part of these ass holes in the first round. Really hope they finish top 2. 

Also, I didn’t understand the purposeful miss at the end. Rick called for it but if you get the one you’re within 2 and can still foul. They basically just conceded fouling down 3. Just thought it was bizarre.

They did not help all night. 
 

team needs a defensive stopper that can go 1 on 1 with Leonard and lebron and win their fair share. 
Kawhai just posted up and got what he wanted down the stretch with the exception of the last real possession when Luka played him well and it ended in a made wide open 3. 

NBA refs - no excuse. NBA doesn’t care. 

Dallas can beat the clips. Dallas needs to fill a hole now. And maybe add one more good stopper. 

Windhorst said earlier today (pre-Powell injury) Mavs were telling teams they were in market for a "player with size who can score 15+" -- got to imagine there's only more urgency to add a big body now. I'd been fretting over lack of depth at PF/C already. Damn.

i don't think we can hang with either LA team right now.  remember they didn't have PG3 tonight.  also don't think powell being out a year changes anything for us really.  we badly need a perimeter stopper.  i don't see what harp sees in dodo. 

Andre Drummond making a little more sense this morning? Idk getting killed on the glass recently and the Powell injury has me rethinking this one.

Harrell was a beast but once Boban came in, that shit ended. I hope we give him more before trading for Drummond.

Yeah. I guess.  I'm not really sure what to think this morning.

I'm thinking about this under the umbrella that they are at least 1 year ahead of schedule.  That frames how I look at it.

I wonder if they move KP to the 5 more.

They are a superstar and a collection of mix and matched parts.  They fit together pretty well.  Now we take on of those pieces out and I'm not sure how it fits together. 

Rick will make it work. Donnie will figure something out. Plus we've got Luka.

We just lost to them at home without them having PG. We are not beating them in a 7 game series.

This right here. Boban can handle a physical low post player and get boards. Can he replace Powell's rim rolling and oops, nope. But he can get some more minutes and it'll be all good.

Have to upgrade the SF spot. DFS has improved but he is a guy that should be coming off the bench. Try and get one of the Morris twins, Covington, or maybe Thaddeus Young. We aren't winning a title this year so no need to go all in. See what Lee's expiring contract, the Warriors 2nd, and Jackson can get.

The Juan Wick in game video with JJ was great last night.

Yep.  Lots of Powell slander on social media that last couple of months.  They'll realize soon. Same as with KP when without him they just didn't have anyone defending the rim.

The issue is how much it'll cost(I'm still not sure he's a fit with this playing style and the way they've set up around Luka).

And the rest is pretty much spot on.  They're already at least a year ahead of schedule.  Don't do anything stupid and gut the team.

If this year was ever about making noise in the playoffs (i had notions a month ago) it’s not anymore. Get in, get some playoff experience, who knows maybe even a series win depending on matchup, keep powder dry for offseason/next season unless the right deal becomes available. 
 

if you have to discuss whether the deal is the right deal, like Drummond, it’s not the right deal. 

McMahon is reporting they've reached out to Joakim Noah.

Hollinger said he's a great teammate. Not sure what kinda shape he's in.  I thought he was injured but can't remember

would a courtney lee for dewaye dedmon trade work out contract-wise?

Listening to LockedonMavs this morning and they said that Maxi and DP were both top 5 roll men (3 and 4).

I'm not sure how that's calculated but it makes me think they just start Maxi and everyone moves up in the rotation.

They did mention Dedmon but I think he signed a 3vyear deal so I'm not sure they are interested in that commitment.

We should have tried Boban on Jokic at the end of the Nuggets game the other night, instead of getting raped repeatedly down low trying to defend him with smaller guys. We should have won that game.

It does, but I don't think I do that. I'd rather give more minutes to Maxi and Boban and slide KP to the 5 in certain matchups. Dedmon doesn't do much on offense and he is signed for two more years at $13m per. I'm sure playing with Luka etc would help his numbers, but do we want a guy who is demanding trades from a team he just signed a long term deal with. 

He'd have to part of a bigger trade. I doubt Sac gives up a first to dump him, but probably a second. Now, if they want to include Bogdanovic in a larger deal, I am all ears.

Jokic would take Boban out a few steps and go around him. He's too skilled a ball handler for Boban to check him 1 on 1. 

Covington or bust for me. He can guard multiple positions, rains 3s, can small ball 4 and is a steal at 12 mil for 2.5 more years.

 

Wolves need PG help so Brunson will have to be included but I think Jalen, Courtney and two seconds is a great offer.

I'm perfectly ok with a trade like that, including giving up Brunson

I think I am too but I really want to hold on to GSWs 2nd rounder.

I'd do it though

Wonder what the offer is/was. Good Ringer article linked in there:

https://www.theringer.com/nba/2020/1/23/21078182/kristaps-porzingis-dallas-mavericks-luka-doncic

 

Obviously Beal would be the ideal option. But I think it's a fair, we'll reasoned thought.

I'm hoping KP is still going to get better and believe he will.  

I like the idea of Galinari and Bertans.  Bertans more so because he's younger and is shooting 42% from 3.  

I think one thing to take into account with all these guys is how much better they'll be playing with Luka.  (Galinari less so because of CP)

 

Beal should be on everyone's radar, but the word is he ungettable.  At least the Mavs wouldn't have enough to get him I think.

 

Covington is a perfect add, but read today that some don't think he's been significantly better than DFS has been(BTW we don't talk about DFS enough...dude has been balling this year).  Also, remember when we wanted Danny Green? DFS has been better this year.

Luka is an All Star game starter.  Hell yes.

That’s sad. 40 something years a franchise and now 3 all star starters. 
 

I wonder if lebron will choo-choo-choose him first.

We want Giannis to draft him

Fucking west coast games. No CJ tonight. Really need to take care of business.

Luka, Curry, THJ, DFS, KP.

Interesting small ball starting lineup.
