MavsBoard

My hope is fading fast...we need to win...

I smell a win here. Memphis is going to be feeling awfully self satisfied coming off that game against OKC. We on the other hand should be pissed off after our last game and we should have KP for this one. If I'm wrong then I will start to get a bit worried about this team. Crap performances like we did against the Pels just sometimes happen in the regular season, you only really worry if the team doesn't respond after one of those crap performances.

Also I can already see we didn't curse this game by having everybody vote that the Mavs would win like we did in that last one against the Pels.

You look up and the Mavs are just 11-10?  They’ve had a pretty easy schedule too. This is the most disappointing season I can remember, so far.  The Mavs just need to focus on staying within 10 tonight.

Dont post much. Saved my judgement for first few games. Didnt have high hopes to begin with after the offseason, but said to myself that we have to give this new leadership a few months.

I fully expect us to be in play in spots by the start of new year. Shame, looking at the west there are only 2 excellent teams and one very good, everything else is out for this year due to injuries or critically flawed roster. Better constructed or just better led Mavs could easily swing for semi finals this year. On the other hand if there werent so many big injuries and league as a whole wouldnt be in some weird transitioning period, maybe they wouldnt even make the play in (or just barley made it). Anyway this is the way I see it.

Fuming here. Didnt expect much out of this Cubans get old band together thing, but am still disappointed. My biggest fear now is that all this will take too long, because its basically Cubans boys now running the show, and if things dont get better I am afraid Cuban will take too long to make changes, because of the old credits and friendship Kidd, Finley and so on...
If there arent any concrete changes to this roster by TD, I dont see Mavs competing for at least this year and the next.

Had to get it out.

Going to be a tough one here. Memphis is playing well even without Ja.  Mavs need to get more out of THJ, DFS, RB, and fill in the blank.

Frankly I'm just most disappointed in Luka. He's talented enough to drag a rag-tag group of fringe starters to 60 wins if he's fully engaged and playing his heart out. Not something you want your 30+ year old star doing but at this point in his career I think he should be going for it

Looks like LD doesn't hear us.

35-No.of.LukaDunks=LD_fat% ??correct??

I am not sure LD will survive till end of regular season going like this and he is still the best piece on mavs roster by fare...

I hope he'll be able to lift his fat ass from the bed tonight and create one more W for us!

I’m about to give this season up. So ticked at Cuban. Probably losing this game.

Luka and KP both out tonight...Ugh.

As a guy who wants to keep KP, he is quickly losing me.  Look good one game and don't see an injury and then misses the next two game.  Just serious concerns if he is ever going to be healthy.   Difficulty finding a trade though.

After tonight, KP will have missed 7 of our first 22 games.

I was always sceptical of KP since he came here.  He's basically had one good season in New York when he made the AS team without injury concerns.  I get why they took a chance on him, but it hasn't worked out. It's been downhill ever since.  It's a proven fact that players 7'3 or taller,  have short shelf lives because of injuries to their lower extremities.

Regular season and playoffs, I assume.

Bagley + Thompson + Len + Ramsey + top 7 protected 1st for Porzingis.

That´s been my KP take in the last couple of years. He misses 1/3 of games. Plays mediocre/bad in 1/3 of games. Plays really good in 1/3.

Welp. I guess I'm preemptively changing my prediction. This looks like an L
