i agree that he bitches about stuff at the basket way too much.  I'm more pissed about how late in the game they let defenders get real tight on him/foul him on the perimeter.  they did the same thing to Dirk for years.  they would never let guys do that to other star players.

It’s a self-perpetuating cycle.  If he would knock it off for a bit he might start getting the calls.

Still sucked though. Hate to get beat by Brook fucking Lopez

We’re playing like shit, but Luka’s cooking.  30/7/5 at half.

Is hardaway hurt?

also, giving up 40 in a quarter isn’t a great way to win. 
 

24-8 free throw disparity?

No idea.  Missed pregame, but he’s definitely not playing.  Missing your 3 best wings is definitely having a negative effect on offense.

That game never happened.

heard on the radio that he tweaked a groin.  not confirmed if he was with South Austin's mom at the time.

Is kp playing tonight?

That’s a silly question. 

That’s a silly question. 
Didn't know if the reduced Covid #s would overrule the kp minute restrictions. He's playing though.

And I’m shocked.

I know we're missing some guys, but we still have our best two players. I feel like we should be handling this stretch of games better than we are. 

Geez. I can understand some losses, they would still bother me but they're understandable, but they are getting run out of the gym the past 2 games.

Hardaway 0-12 and 0 points in 27 minutes is less than spectacular. 

I think he needs to start coming off the bench again once everyone is back. His off nights are more frustrating because he refuses to pass the ball. Several times last night he had a pretty easy pass for a clean look for a teammate, but he has tunnel vision toward the basket and simply cannot turn it off. You have to be able to help out in other ways if your shot isn't falling.

if KP doesn't become truly consistent all star-like #2 it won't matter but lets say he does become that, who is the #3.  Dallas has to find the #3 if they really want to challenge. 

Hardaway is pretty much a JAG due to his inconsistency.  is it Kleber?

if we're talking about who we have on our squad right now, it's either burke or johnson.

oops that's who i meant to say instead of johnson.

Easy to mix up when they’re both new and we haven’t seen JRich in what feels like a month.

Vic you've been around long enough to know that anytime the Mavs are brought up, just go ahead and throw it out.

The Mavs only make moves out of the blue.  Never when they've been brought up.

The Richardson and Johnson trades in November came out of nowhere.  Hell they weren't even mentioned as a KP destination until the trade was already announced.  

Basically, if you see them attached to something, you can basically forget it. 

 

Besides, I'm no Lonzo hater...would he be an upgrade?  I mean he's a good playmaker, but he couldn't start with Luka right?

Good win.  Good to see KP start to find his groove and THJ bounce back from the dumpster fire that was his last game.  Nice night for Brunson as well.  And an underwhelming triple double for Luka.

Lonzo doesn't get to the rack and doesn't shoot 3s.  I don't know how he would fit but I've seen Rick take lesser players and get something out of them.  

Playing in this offense he would have more space to operate so maybe some of those numbers improve.  Probably would.

Besides his limitations he's a good defender, smart player and good passer. 

Rick would probably love him.

Overall I like the idea of it but I wouldn't trade for him.  Make a run at him when he's a FA if you're so inclined.

more of that from KP on a consistent basis and things might trend higher than a 7 or 8 seed.

Once the full crew is available, I would give at a 2-3 game trial of Luka, Richardson, DFS, Maxi, KP. If rebounding/rim protection are an issue move KP back to 4 and start WCS.

At full strength I really like the depth.....just got to get everyone available

I think that is what they will do.  They have a lot of options and can go big or small depending on the opponent.  Luka/Richardson/Hardaway/Johnson/KP has some appeal to me against a team that goes small.  Johnson is a versatile SOB.

He's attempting seven 3s a game.

This bit is awesome.

 

 

 

So what's the timeline on our COVID boys? The game against the Nuggets was January 7th, over two weeks ago. It seems like we should have most if not all of them back by now.

There gonna need a little bit of time to get back into game shape once they are cleared.  

No one watching tonight? Offense is humming.

It might really hum when we get 4 rotation guys back.  THJ has redeemed himself the last 1.5 games.

When he is on though, man he can light it up.

I’m not one to throw Timmy under the bus because he had one craptastic night coming off an injury.  He has proven that when given wide open jump shots he is above average at knocking them down, and Luka can provide those shots.

When do we get the rest of the team back from Covid? Also, just want to say that it’s really heartwarming how irrelevant and untalented the Spurs roster currently is.
I’ll hang up and listen.

No real timetable unfortunately.

Missing 5 pieces of the rotation seems to be tough to overcome. JRich was on the bench though, so he should be back soon, thank god.
