A certain country with some Winnie the Pooh looking mofo as their leader has decided to cancel the game against the Houston Rockets' G league affiliate for some reason

So my wife watches every game and she has some of the best takes on the Mavs, so I thought I would share.

Harrison Barnes' nickname is "Clown Shoes" because he would frequently dribble off his foot.

DFS = Littlefoot


Against the Hornets last year in a 122-84 victory - "These guys are so bad they are making Dwight look good!"

Temporary most hated player - Jonas Jerebko - He had 23 points against the Mavs in a close loss. Said she would give him another chance this year.

Favorite non-Mav - Dame Lillard

Can't Stand -  DeAndre Jordan's "lazy ass", when Dwight jumps as high as he can to catch a bounce pass, Wes Matthews.

Actually thought Skin Wade's joke about Steven Adams juggling refrigerators was funny.

Somehow always right when calling shots in midair.

The Houston Rockets suddenly find themselves in the middle of a geopolitical controversy that could put their chief front-office executive’s job in jeopardy. After general manager Daryl Morey expressed support in a since-deleted tweet for pro- democracy efforts in Hong Kong, the Chinese government, the Chinese Basketball Association, and various Chinese businesses quickly denounced Morey and moved to sever ties with the Rockets. As a consequence, league sources told [i]The Ringer[/i] that Rockets ownership has debated Morey’s employment status and whether to replace him.

Haven't seen this topic spoken about extensively or directly too much. 

We know we have Luka and Porzingis starting obviously. Then we have heard reports that Powell will be next to KP as the 4/5 combo. So that gives us Luka/Porz/Powell as for sure starters most of the time(besides the days of rest for KP, which I will get to soon)I am thinking it has to be Delon in there due to the new contract and recent words said. 

The final roster spot is sort of ambiguous and maybe they are still figuring that out in training camp. 

• It could be Seth Curry as he also signed a similar contract as Delon did, but many would argue he will make a great 6th man. 
  
• It could be THJ as they need to raise his trade stock for a potential move, and/or his contract is so high, the front office/Carlisle seems to like to play the big money guys. 
  
• It could be Brunson... maybe that means Delon doesn't start, which I find to be highly unlikely but maybe Brunson really takes the next step and forces a decision. Granted I think this is highly unlikely as he seems to be groomed for JJB's old bkup pg spot. 
  
• Could it be DFS? He provides some defense and versatility... I guess the same argument could be for Justin Jackson here... I guess it is a similar choice and motivations, just matters which plays better, and who you (the Coach) likes best.
  
• Could it be Lee? unlikely but maybe he blows away the chemistry. Maxi? Unlikely with KP/Powell starting... but who knows... could be a weird lineup

I think Kristaps deserves his own thread like Luka, so we can drop any little tidbit connected to him in one place without cluttering the board.
