    FYI - The FEC has already said Yang's "sign up for money" thing is illegal. 

     

    Yeah saw that. I think it's legal if he uses his own money to do this. If not the Reddit Founder said he would already do this for Yang if it turned out to be illegal. Also pretty brilliant way to get people to check out his platform on other issues. 

  2. Biden is such an unimpressive candidate who can barely string 2 coherent thoughts together so I guess people won't have that much to adjust to if he becomes president.

    There's really only 2 candidates that stick out to me. Both for the same reason. Warren and Yang are extremely smart and have detailed policies to back up their rhetoric. Personally, I'm on the Yang train after reading more of his platform. HIs ideas may seem way out there t some but I think he's just way ahead of everyone else in terms of identifying problems and finding solutions. HIs solutions come with data/logic/science and after this abortion of a president I'm all for the exact opposite ( an Asian who likes math).

    Yang won’t win. But damn if he shouldn’t be elected to office / be part of an administration. He has some really great ideas and is becoming a better and better candidate.

     

    I really think Yang is going to wind up with a lot more support than most think. He'll grab a lot of the independent right leans because he's educated and non threatening. He's way ahead of the curve with his ideas and I think it'll set him up for a serious run in 2024/2028.

    That was the first time i've ever seen a movie with him in it, and here is who he was in The Imitation Game:

    33% Hugh Grant

    33% Sheldon from Big Bang Theory

    33% Season 1 Abed Nadir

    does that sound appealing?  

    You've never watched an avengers movie?

    Also, the more time he spends on the road, the more opportunities he will have to get hit by a bus.

    I hope his wife is hit by that same bus. (no racist - Asian here)

    The Wright deal basically took us out of contention for Dragic or Iggy. Watch us sign another useless 15 mpg Euro that will help us sell merch in Lithuania 

    We can still do it if we send them Lee and probably a few 2nd rounders. Either way the Mavs will masquerade this pile of dung Plan Z as Plan A. I remember when this ownership and FO were doing things so radically different. Ironically, they are in the same position they were when Mark first bought the team. Back then, they were all about talent acquisition.

    I'm indifferent to this but i feel like Dragic has a better chance of staying healthy.  And if they take on one of these contracts Miami or Memphis needs to attach a pick.  

    Fish said they should send 2 2s to Memphis for Iguodala.  Fuck that noise.  

    Honestly i'd rather just keep the space and see what happens.

    Okie still has to dump a ton of salary. I'm at the point now where I'm praying we can get Gallo from them at a 23 mill 1 year rental. Also seems likely since it fits Donnie's fetish. Gallo Luka and Zinger would be fun to watch.

    F it. Lets get Gallo and Goran and just try to field an all euro starting 5.

  8. Interesting news about Boogie...he changed reps today to Jeff Schwartz who's super chummy with the Mavs. In the end it probably doesn't much though.

     

    Kawhi also likely re-signing with Toronto so Green is likely gone. 

    Nothing turning out the way the Mavs hoped for FA so it's the norm for us.

    Uhhhhhh what else are they going to send us? Gallinari for 22 milll.....puke

    Donnie will think its a bargain. I really don't understand how that would be preferable over Boogie at whatever price he winds up at(knowing he's having a hard time getting even an exception offer right now).

    Jabari Parker on a plane to Dallas right now apparently. Dude plays zero D but I'd take his scoring from the midrange and post for the second unit 

    connecting flight to chicago. team boogie but mavs seem determined to overwhelm us with their overpayment of mediocrity. Knowing the FO we'll have the greatest amount of cap space next yr in the worst FA class in recent history and still strike out. We'll roll that powder for 20-21 on the Giannis do-over and strike out again.

  11. Crazy that 2 yrs ago Boogie was #1 on the Mavs wishlist for a max candidate. He's the guy left on the market with the upside and he would come at a serious discount. Don't understand what's going on with his market. He has problems with coaches sometimes but teammates seem to like him and he didn't have any issues with GS. Looked productive in limited minutes and seems natural that the averages would climb back over 20/10 with 30 plus minutes.

    I was hoping we could make some moves to at least have a real good shot at the playoffs.

    As is this team doesn't have much of a chance to make it.

    I think right now the Mavs FO is completely hoping their improvement in the win column comes from Zinger returning and Luka improving. If they had even a semblance of a plan the playoffs would have been realistic this year.

  13. The moves the Mavs have made so far I don't have any real issues with. Curry is fine at the price and Maxi is too. What really bothers me is how woefully unprepared the Mavs FO seems to be. They had plan A in Kemba and just seemed to wing the rest of yesterday. You have months to prepare for the players and scenarios you want. The FO looked like utter idiots in both trade scenarios with the Heat/76ers and because they didn't have any clue about the landscape of FA they lost out on basically every backup plan they should have gone after.  Too busy eating dinner I guess.
