  1. Dude has his arm around Gafford’s neck on a rebound and the refs just choose to be blind to it. Pelicans and Kings both lose. So a loss tonight is not the end of the world. Would be really awesome to steal one though.
  2. This team actually has been good at taking care of teams that are below .500. I suspect they'll bounce back against ATL and then get another shot at the Warriors who will also be on a B2B.
  3. Or maybe just don't take pictures of random people without them knowing, regardless of the public space you're in. Just a thought.
  4. I know it's popular to slam people of his ilk, but taking pictures of people at the gym should be completely banned. Please don't be that guy.
  5. Putting the small ball lineup of Hardy, THJ, and Kyrie at the end of the 3rd cost us this game. The advanced stats with those 3 (at the very least any lineup with Hardy and THJ) are atrocious. No idea what Kidd was doing there.
  6. I think playing Luka and Kyrie on a back-to-back at this point would be foolish. Luka is already questionable every night it seems like. The problem for the teams chasing the Mavs is they have pretty rough schedules down the stretch. It's likely 5-3 in the last 8 clinches a top 6 seed since we have the tiebreaker on both Phoenix and NO. Sac could still catch up but would have to go 7-1 in that scenario against this schedule: Here's NO's schedule for reference: And Phoenix: Heck, 4-4 probably still gets us a top 6 seed.
  7. So if we have a choice to play the Clippers or the Wolves, who are you choosing? I really would prefer to play someone besides the Clippers in the first round. At this point, ending with the 6th seed might not be terrible if you can give guys more rest and end up with a better matchup in the first round.
  8. This is so weird to read this sentence and it be about the Mavericks.
  9. We’re going to go on an amazing run and end up the 5th seed only to match up with the damn clippers again.
  10. They had been shooting like ~30% from 3 even during this win streak. If they can get that back to league average, watch out.
  11. Really big 2-game stretch here against the Kings. I think if the Mavs can split them, they're in a really good spot to pass the Kings in the last few weeks. Kings still have LAC, NYK, BOS, OKC, NO, and PHO left. Meanwhile, the Mavs only have one team after this that's in a playoff spot (Heat are in a play-in seed right now) and that's OKC the last game of the season.
  12. That's a good point. Still saw a few slips here and there, but the field looked even better than it did for the Jamaica game.
  13. Haven’t seen Gio smile so much before. Kid is probably happy just to be playing again.
  14. Some golazos tonight.
  15. How is that not a red? Studs up, got none of the ball, and was wreckless.
  16. Sac and NO both lose so Mavs move into the 6th seed and only 1.5 games out of the 5th.
  17. If Trump takes back Georgia and Arizona, he still loses without flipping MI, PA, or WI. I just have a hard time seeing everything breaking for him given the current state of the GOP in those states.
  18. Trump is already claiming the 2024 election is going to be rigged. He's already planning his strategy when he inevitably loses. That, to me, speaks volumes about how he and his campaign see things going. https://apnews.com/article/trump-2024-election-lies-voter-fraud-biden-f3f3691c2ea0667ad694e3bee577d802 The difference this time is he isn't the head of state. I think it's going to be a very similar map to 2020 with maybe 1 or 2 states going back to Trump, but it won't be enough. I don't care if it's close or not, he just needs to lose.
  19. That’s a better way of putting it.
  20. Polling issues causing some angst and a potential Biden health scare aside, am I the only one who feels like this isn't going to be particularly close? I don't think Trump can count on all of these people switching to him in the General. Meanwhile, he's out of money and the RNC is out of money to really do much about it.
