I have the same feeling, but that feeling also could be hope casting and we both might be whistling past the graveyard.
No matter what, Trump will claim it was rigged and will do whatever he accuses Biden of doing and more.
It’s really important that it not be close for multiple reasons. In some ways a blowout Trump win is better for the country than a close Trump win and in any case seems more likely than a blowout Biden win.
Im worried about Trump winning of course, but I’m also worried it will be close either way.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.
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.

While not in the bag, it's a situation where it's Biden's to lose and if he plays it by the book, as analogy if he runs the ball 3 times in a row and doesn't try to get cute and throw it, he can run out the clock.
I think a lot of moderate Republicans and conservative folks who are turned off by Trump will be just fine with another 4 years of Biden.
That’s a better way of putting it.

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.

24-3
So basically, if the Mavs play league-average defense, they are elite.
-
I wonder what our record is when we give up less than 115 points. It had to be pretty good.

I disagree, Timmy's a lifetime 36% 3 point shooter over 11 seasons. This low 20% cold streak he's on will revert back to mean and it'll come in a string of ridiculous >40% games. In the meantime I think kidd's going to keep doing what he's done recently, giving him about 20 mins a game hoping he finds his rhythm. I wish Kidd would give Hardy Timmy's minutes though instead of exum. When exum plays too much he loses his efficiency and he starts to press.
Agree here. Timmy will win us some games when he snaps out of this. But yea, the leash needs to be short until then.

CP also smoked a shot earlier in the game that hit the under side of the cross bar. He’s playing with a ton of confidence now.

Strange game. Nuggets shot better from the field, way better from 3, and better from the line, but the Mavs got 21 offensive rebounds. Weird box score.
-
Fun to see us get to the basket at will. Lively and Gafford going off again.

I had to switch careers when I left Texas. O&G isn’t a thing in WNC. It wasn’t easy at all, especially in my 40s, but I’m glad I uprooted myself. Leaving friends and family was hard too. But as someone previously mentioned, you either rip the bandaid off or stay in the same place forever. Parents, Kids, Jobs, these things will always be there, telling you to stay put.
Of course if Robinson is elected Governor here, might need to move again
Which industry did you switch to?

This team has taken on the demeanor of their coach. Hands in pockets, no emotion, and just out there going through the motions. I can't believe Kidd has lasted as long as he has here.

Why isn’t someone reminding him that Gafford was playing great AND they gave up a first round pick to get him. Burying him on the bench behind maxi makes absolutely no sense.
Totally agree with this. The amount of minutes we're running Maxi out there is just stupid. He played 26 minutes against Philly and got 2....2 points. It's not an isolated game either. Here are his last 5 games.
-
Nico is doing fine given the shit hand he was dealt. They have a decent roster now that is more talented than the one they made it to the WCF with.
Time to cut the cord on Kidd, though, or I will call for Nico to go as well. Dude just brings nothing to the table. Not being a top 6 seed with this bunch just isn’t okay.
-
Nice bounce back. This is one of the rare times it was good to have a game the very next night.

What a disaster of a loan move. Would have been better off sticking with BVB. Bottom of the prem is not a good place to be or develop. Maybe our guys will learn that after this one.

Got my tickets for USA-Bolivia at Jerry world. Haven't been to a match in years. They were pretty reasonably priced surprisingly.

I’ve been as big a pessimist in this thread as anyone, but I think we have something with this roster. Still Exum to return as well.

6 game win streak heading into the break. Still a decent shot at the 5 seed. Would need a lot of help getting above that.

Bad THJ is really bad
first half 11min, 11 shots, 2 makes, 3 fouls, 0 assists.
losing to a 9 win team with Luka and Irving.
Yea I think he’s playing himself out of minutes if that continues. He’s in a very bad way at the moment and we now have options.
Still won even if it was ugly. I don’t think anyone was predicting a 5-game winning streak 10 days ago.
we need to stop playing THJ and Hardy at the same time. It’s not pretty.
-
Damn. I might be excited again.
-
The roster upgrades are obvious. We are way longer and more athletic. And we will still get Lively and Exum back. This team can do some damage post all star break.
-
I’m kind of meh on Dinwiddie at this point. I guess he could be a decent fill-in when KI inevitably gets hurt again, but I’m not really interested in him playing a ton of meaningful minutes.

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.
