  1. And of course they win tonight and currently don’t have a top 10 pick.
  2. I think a loss to CHI clinches a top 10 pick. That would give them the tiebreaker against us and, at worst, they would be 1 game up on us with 1 game to go.
  3. It is not a given that they will be in the top 10 of they miss the playin. That’s why they need to tank.
  4. I will fully admit I don’t know all the details of the CBA, but this guy does and here is where the roster would stand after re-signing KI, not getting a 1st, and letting Wood walk. Not great…
  5. We have no way to improve the roster this offseason. You can at least find a 3 and D guy with the 10th pick that will hopefully bring some more athleticism. Or you can move the pick to acquire something. This team just needs assets at this point. They’re stuck due to poor roster management since 2019.
  6. I’m sure it’s been brought up, but when was the last time all 3 Texas teams have been in the lottery at the same time? I cannot remember the last time that happened.
  7. We also play Chicago in one of these last 4. Need to definitely lose that one. If we do that, 1-3 the rest of the way ought to do it right?
  8. Good. Tank the hell out of this the rest of the way and fire Kidd. At least we will have a top 10 pick to make or trade.
  9. Winning against Indiana was so freaking stupid. Did us absolutely no good. The only saving grace is we suck even when we're trying to win and Chicago is in the play-in at the moment, so they probably won't tank the last 6 games. If we actually tanked properly, we would probably be able to keep our pick.
  10. A smart organization would go 0-5 to actually have a chance to improve the roster. So that means the Mavs will try to go 3-2 and give the #11 pick to the Knicks.
  11. All the fears when Kidd was hired are coming to fruition in basically half a season. If he misses the play-in game with a top 5 player in the league, I don't see how it's possible you keep him, but Mavs probably going to Mavs. The treatment of Wood this year has been embarrassing. Yes, he has flaws, but if you don't score 120 per night, you're going to lose. 12 minutes for Wood is beyond puzzling.
  12. Man…don’t know what else to say. Was watching the Longhorns on one screen and saw Mavs on the other and just totally lost interest in the Mavs. This team is rotten to the core. Kidd is not the only problem but that’s the only problem you can fix now. He’s not the guy. Clear as day.
  13. They finally hit a buzzer beater. Feels like they’ve missed like 10 of those this year. And somehow they’re back as the 6th seed which, of course, means they’ll lose the next game and drop to 9th.
  14. Those last three plays by Maxi might be the worst stretch of plays I’ve ever seen to close a game. And he’s supposed to be our calm veteran. Still amazing to me that Hardy couldn’t find any minutes earlier in the year and that Javale can’t even find significant minutes against a G-Leauge team. At least nobody died.
  15. It’s a shame we farted away the whole season not taking advantage of teams with depleted rosters. It’s also a shame we completely whiffed on two big men over the off-season—or at least didn’t get two big men the coach likes. Either way, if we miss the playoffs, Kidd should be fired. You don’t have a MVP candidate and miss the playoffs. I don’t care about last year.
  16. I just can't believe how easily a team like Utah, who was missing multiple starters tonight, absolutely torched us. I actually felt better after the loss to Phoenix than I did after the win last night. I have no idea what to expect from them tonight against NO.
  17. Well, a win is a win but man this team is flawed. Yet now they are up to the 5th seed after going 3-3 on this home stand. What a strange year.
  18. This team is an absolute embarrassment on defense. The Jazz have maybe 2 players I’ve ever heard of playing tonight and they are scoring at will. Is there seriously nobody on the street better than this?
  19. Took my almost 5-year-old to his first game tonight. Brought the good vibes back. Kiddo is 1-0.
  20. I hate to say it but I'm leaning that way as well. I'm also tired of the Luka theatrics. He's not a 20-year-old kid anymore, it's time to grow up and just play basketball.
  21. Jason Kidd showing his warts this season. It obviously isn't all on him, but dang dude, use your freaking timeouts when teams are going on huge runs against you. Dude actually said in his press conference that he's only watching the games just like us. Ummmm what?

    USMNT 2023

    Leeds with another bad loss. Shaping up to be a disaster for our guys.
  23. This is now a fun group to watch without Luka. Lots of youth, ball movement, and more fast breaks.
