Then you combine that with a horrendous contract for McGee and you have what you have. We also traded Seth Curry for jack shit. Dallas loves to get rid of any scorers they have for absolutely nothing. This front office is maddening.
December 2, 20223 yr Did anyone catch Nico's interview yest where he said kemba's knee was "not good"?

December 7, 20223 yr Author Good to see THJ has gotten his head out of his ass and started to make shots again. I still cant get over the progress from Josh Green. Hardy needs to keep getting a few minutes a game. Saw Lavine rumors since the Bulls are under achieving. He is in year 1 of a 5 year 37+mil per contract.
December 7, 20223 yr Went to first game of the year Monday which was fun. Nice surprise to see we pulled out a nice road W last night on a back to back. And yeah, not a coincidence we've gone 4-1 last 5 with THJ averaging 20+ after going 0-4 the 4 games prior when he averaged ~4

It's crazy how this team goes as THJ goes. I really wish we could find a true #2 for Luka so we don't have to count on THJ at all really.
December 10, 20223 yr Gotta close out the Bucks when Gianis fouls out, on a dumb foul, with 3 minutes left in a close game.
December 10, 20223 yr What a fucking awful close. 5 missed ft down the stretch, botched switch on inbound, and then not gettin a TO before inbounding to advance
December 10, 20223 yr Nice job going 0-5 on free throws late and blowing this game with Giannis fouled out. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
December 10, 20223 yr Luka was really mad at someone on our benc after that last shot. Maybe kidd for not doing what Luka wanted on the last inbound?
December 10, 20223 yr Its Luka and scrubs with Jason Kidd drawing up the 30 footer for the win every time. This team is back to where they were in 2020.
December 10, 20223 yr 10-24 on free throws tonight. Luka fell asleep several times on defense and cost us a bunch of points. Jason kidd is not a good Xs and Os coach. Goodnight.

December 10, 20223 yr That last play was an embarrassment of coaching failure and execution. Wood trying to rush things and ending up setting the pick in the paint (which could have been called for a moving screen easily) shrunk the area the two defenders involved had to cover. If he sets the screen above the circle and dives to the rim he's got a much better chance at getting open for a lob, but even before that Hardaway should have recognized his guy was basically not playing him on that "screen" and Holiday was focused solely on Luka. He should have presented at the top of the arc for a rhythm catch and shoot that would have been wide open. I know you want Luka to get the last shot there, but when your play is trash and the other team knows you're trying to get it to Luka it's never going to work. They were only down 1, so they should have been running action to get the ball to Luka moving toward the basket where he could at a minimum catch a foul and win it at the line. Just awful awful coaching.

While last year was a fun ride, I always had a sinking feeling we were like the Hawks who made the ECF the year prior and then crashed down to earth. I think we caught lightning in a bottle in the 2nd round game 7 where literally every single thing went right for us and every thing went wrong for the Suns. We also let our 2nd best player walk. And did nothing to replace his output. Not a good thing. This isn't a roster that will make any damage in the playoffs. Last year was the absolute best we can hope for. A 1st round win and pray every single thing goes right to try and win a 2nd round series which is backdoored by an ass whipping in the WCF. But I seriously doubt it even gets to that point this season. We are now in Luka's 5th season or so and still no #2 who is reliable. Our season doesn't go as Luka goes. He's always going to be Luka. But that isn't enough in today's NBA. You need more. Our season really goes as THJ goes and yeah, that isn't a good thing.
December 10, 20223 yr This is like a old school OKC team with a more talented Rusell Westbrook with no KD. Pain. Just hoping for great Luka moments.
December 10, 20223 yr Will be in the Metrop!ex during the holidays, Jr and I are thinking of hitting up the Mavs/Knicks game on 27th. Tickets should be had easily I assume.
December 11, 20223 yr Hardy's defense is so bad it's hard to figure out who to put him in with. Good to see kemba get some run
December 21, 20223 yr That'll teach them a lesson! What a fucking joke. Definitely worth it to get the player you want if that's all the punishment is. And it's over 2 years away. Lmao
December 28, 20222 yr Cmon surly… no one talking about this game and Luka right now???? 56/21/10 for him halfway through OT
December 28, 20222 yr Cmon surly… no one talking about this game and Luka right now???? 56/21/10 for him halfway through OTBeen watching and on twitter. Mavs been so frustrating I hate to even be talking about them.
December 28, 20222 yr Author Holy shit. When they were down by 9 with 44 seconds left, I thought no way in hell they would pull it out. Luka magic.
December 28, 20222 yr First 60/20 triple double ever… we have to get serious and put some players around luka (no shit, right?)

December 28, 20222 yr Holy fuck my balls. Just saw the ESPN ticker with his game. Wow the dude is a savant. I’ll take Luka and Wood and everyone on this team should be imminently movable. Love Doe, Maxi, THJ (when on) and Spencer in spots, but we need more perimeter ball handling, scoring, and true big man play asap. We cannot wait to lose this guy, because we will. 3 minutes ago, Etexhorn13 said: Don’t know if you’re referencing this or not but in post game interview the guy asked him “how ya feeling after that?” “Ah man, I’m tired as hell, I need a beer” lol That’s great.

It wouldn't take much to upgrade this team considerably.

Teams will just sign those guys instead of taking on the salaries of Lowell or bertans. sucks that luka has to work that hard to barely get a win against the knicks without Brunson to get to 19-16.

I’d be willing to give up Wood if someone would take Galindo and park him on their Bally’s broadcast.
