  1. He wasn't when he left, and he was stuck to the bench the playoffs the year before. By the Time Dallas actually saw what Brunson was, he shut it down. Sure he would have signed 4/55 that summer. But the Mavs would have been stupid to do it at that time based on what he'd actually done for them on the court. This. Yeah they keep pushing this narrative. He would have signed that summer. Mavs pushed the date cause they wanted to see him play, rightfully so. Even STILL he wasn't THIS Brunson in Dallas. Much like Steve Nash he had to leave for his own team to become the stud he is anwyays. exactly. Can we stop this...the Mavs aren't leaving. Would be an absolute shit storm if they did after all this. I know some would hate this, but not me. Giddey holding it down till Kai got back. Don't need to be a scorer at all, just play defense and facilitate.
  2. I think Vegas gets a team first personally(even though Seattle SHOULD) That's if they have them lined up...there is a groundswell for a Vegas team. They would have so many groups trying to buy in it would be silly. The last point isn't worth it. If the Owners lose out on Casinos in Texas, they're more likely to sell out than try to move. They didn't get into the Mavs for the basketball, but as a catalyst for an all encompassing new Casino/entertainment market in North Texas. They don't need the Mavs for that in Vegas. It just don't make sense. And now with the draft, the interest will be back for the Mavs, right or wrong, so the chances are less IMO.
  3. I was shocked and of course it was rigged. For the first time EVER in Dallas favor. A team that has never had the #1 pick, and has never even moved up in the lottery once in 17 tries. Oh, and the Mavericks are NOT moving to Vegas. You may not believe the "top 5 market shit" but what you will believe as that the owners would lose 20+ million in buy in fees bynot doing a new team, and letting them move. It's not happening.
  4. Why do people say stuff like this? The offense was very very good 2 years ago when Dak was 2nd in MVP voting. And the two years prior when Dak was healthy. Pretty much any year outside of 2017(zeke suspensions/Dez/Witten declining like rocks and Twill sucking AND the OL was a mash unit on the left side) they've been a good to very good offense when Dak is healthy and the OL isn't shit. Not surprisingshould be "Highest rated non Playoff game since ect...) levels.
  5. Yeah had me rolling...the way they're fake Canadian accents morphed in fake Irish ones. The way that Sal, who always says "the cowboys such or what" saying "The Stars are good right?" was icing on the cake. A true meltdown that was actually funny.
  6. Dever has been one of my favorites since she was on Justified as a kid. A kid actor that didn't annoy the fuck out of me...she was great on Last Man Standing as the "tomboy" Daughter. And plenty of other movies. She'll be fine after this...Bella, not so sure. She was great in GoT...but this might be beyond her now.
  7. This is the way I've been preaching since the move was announced. People sorta shit on the "Pod" idea but it makes the most sense. 3 Rivals/close teams. 6 teams you do a home and home with, then the other 6 teams do the same thing. Every 4 years you've seen every team in the conference twice.
  8. Same. I loved it. Way more emotional than I thought it would be and I'll probably see it again. I love these thrown together teams, very much like GoTG is my singular favorite non avengers MCU movie because the cast was that good along with the story/comedy/serious mix. Same here. Same. I may see it again with the wife... Longest end credit scene in MCU history and so much info I would do unspeakable things. I've actually seen people say she's not their thing...or she's not that hot. I'm like WTF?!?
  9. I haven't watched her show...but she was really really good on SNL. I wouldn't be surprised to see her back. And can't wait for Groggins.
  10. You can do that for basically every player. Including Lamb and Mahomes. Huh? They've basically spent most of the offseason getting boy scouts in here. if he's horrible or bad here there won't be a contract. There WILL, however, be a pretty damned good Comp Pick coming, maybe even a 3rd rounder, which makes this trade basically a wash if he fucks himself out of Dallas. Yeah and they spent all offseason getting "the right kind of guys". Adding a dawg and an asshole might actually be a good thing. Be the best QB he's played with, and that even if you think Dak is Barely a Top 15-20 QB. Exactly. They drafted "Good guys" and signed "good guys" This is a shot at taking a very talented WR, who produced over 900+ yard every season with dog shit QB and a new OC every single year he's been there, and seeing if it works. Worst case, they get one year from him, he's great, and the open market overpays him to the point they get a 3rd round comp pick for him(so basically trade a 3rd for him and get one back) OR he sucks, they don't resign him, and they STILL get a 4th/5th Comp pick for taking a swing. In no way this is a bad trade unless he murder Lamb/Dak.
  11. Stupid Sip...that was as a backup, he won't be nearly as good as start duh...
  12. Only one from NY and 5 from Illinois in those populous hot beds? LOL
  13. Polar Bear here. Also why is texas getting dragged for spending so much when other blue bloods, and some that aren't, are as well?
  14. "Player traded for a low draft pick despite high expectation is trashed on his way out the door" Typical stuff. Might be true. Who cares if it is...they traded an end of the round 5th for a potential backup and a top of the round 7th. It's still a win of a trade regardless. The Mingo pick is much more damning...cause they had a really good draft and could have been better with that 4th.
  15. I'd ask him why they still allow the vaunted SEC to play FCS teams in Non Conference...AND more specifically, why they're allowed to play them in November. For all the talk of Texas weak schedule, we at least didn't play any FCS teams and damned sure don't play them in November for a cupcake.
  16. You're preaching to the Choir here man. But unfortunetly her racist fans are so loud and vocal and the ones who respond in kind to them as well, that it's become a narrative that most of her fans are that way. You know what they say, the loudest voices are heard, even if they're not a true representation of the fan base.
  17. Pretty much this. Once Sark put him back in, that was it...he was the guy barring injury or meltdown. The way they played in the 2nd half, even with Quinn, gave them a chance to come back. Arch may have had growing pains, but probably gives them a better shot.
  18. Pretty much. And why does anyone still debate Futureman...he's obviously trolling, and hasn't had a real take in a decade.
  19. Just don't check out Social Media it's half people acting like she's not any good or that she's bad for the sport mainly cause her fans suck.
  20. I never said Nico drafted Luka. I said he built a fucking team that was a title contender around him. There is no loss to take.
  21. Nah just mixed up the two generic white dude always on Windhorst. My bad.
  22. Fuck me I got him and Tim Bontempts mixed up. That's the one I don't like. They're on the Windhorst podcast all the damn time together and confused the two. Mea culpa.
  23. Huh? Where the fuck did I say that...him not being a Luka fan is part of why I don't like him, sure...but not even close to the main reason I think he's a Hack.. It's his constant lies that he's not influencing the MVP with a Poll that literally affects the outcome.
  24. Sorry he just isn't the great reporter some people think. All this Luka stuff just has me on edge.
